Energy management is the practice of increasing, maintaining, or decreasing the dancefloor’s energy or intensity over time.
Great DJs shape energy intentionally rather than letting it change randomly. Generally, DJs also aim to strategically direct this energy to create dynamic musical experiences; sitting in one energy too long can create experiences that can either bore the dancefloor (in the case of energy that is too low) or cause them to tire or become overwhelmed (in the case of energy that is too high).
