Club DJ's typically make between $200 - $600 for a 4 or 5 hour set. Working the club scene is not the greatest gig if your looking to make a lot of money. Part of the problem with the rate of pay is that there are a lot of DJ's going out there and doing it for free in the hopes of becoming famous. Other DJ's don't know what there worth and work for $200 or less a night to get their foot in the door with promises of higher pay from club owners who never keep their end of the bargain.
Once a Club DJ has established himself and knows his worth, he can make between $400 to $600 per night, which is still not that great but because that is typically the highest club owners are willing to pay you can't squeeze anymore out of them.
If you are a famous DJ or recording artist/producer DJ then you can make between $1000 to $10,000 for a 4 or 5 hour set. There are some celebrity DJ's that make over $20,000 in a nights work but it could take 20 to 30 years of dedication and talent to get to that point if you come across the right people!
There are alot of club/bar owners that are happy to hire a DJ that has little or no experience for $60 plus a 40 dollar bar tab. And because there are guys out there that will spin for that price the industry will never progress to a higher pay scale!

Disk jockey's job description?
There are different kinds of DJ's: Mobile DJ's: - Play the music at weddings, school dances, and similar events. They usually have an intimate knowledge of music and programming for the type of event to make sure that appropriate music is played. Club DJs: - Depending on the club they may play anything from Top 40 to underground EDM. Club DJ's usually mix the music and create samples and mash-ups on the fly. Mixing means that they ensure that both songs transition flawlessly into each other; Doing this requires adjusting the speed of the songs to make sure that the beats line up properly (beatmatching) and making sure that the key's of the two songs are complimentary and do not clash. Club DJ's also need an intimate knowledge of music and what is popular. Rave/Party DJs: - Similar to club DJ's in the fact that beat-matching and key harmonics are very important but they often spin genres like techno, drum and bass, electro, etc; as opposed to more mainstream club music. Radio DJs: - Similar to Mobile DJs in the fact they usually just press play for the next song, but they need to program the music for the station. (Note: some radio DJs are also club or party DJs and very well may beat-match and mix). Radio DJs also act as announcers, MCs, and news casters for most radio stations. Producer DJs: - Like Rave/Party DJs and Club DJs but they also produce their own music or remixes. This category would include artists like Deadmau5, Avicii, etc. Turntablists: - These are the guys who "scratch" records and preform turntable tricks. They often compete in DJ competitions or may be seen with hip-hop artists. (Other types of DJ's may also be turntablists). Bedroom DJs: - Could be any kind of DJ really but they play for the enjoyment and are not actually employed by a venue or company.

How do you calculate your raise with percent hourly?
Answer: Either of the following methods: 1. ((New pay rate / old pay rate) - 1) * 100 2. ((New pay rate - old pay rate) / old pay rate ) * 100 Proof: If old pay rate = 15 $/hr and new pay rate = 18 $/hr, then: 1. ((18 / 15) - 1) * 100 = 20% 2. ((18 - 15) / 15) * 100 = 20% Check: old pay rate * (decimal version of 20%=0.20) + old pay rate = new pay rate 15 * 0.20 + 15 = 18
