The DJs are one of the many gangs in Night City.
History
The DJs are a Chromer gang whose membership consists of wannabe rockerboys with little or no talent (and a lot of expensive hardware). Most of them are tweens, engaging in small time crimes (Larceny, Ticket scalping, Bootleg memorabilia, etc).
They are generally not violent. Most of their time is spent trying to get noticed by the real talent. But the most they have manged to accomplish so far was getting some groupies into a party with Johnny Silverhand a few years ago.
If you flatter their "talent" enough, they have a great deal of knowledge about the Rock scene in Night City. They can tell you where after gig parties are (they won't be able to get you in though). If you're brave enough to risk it, they can sell you cheap tickets too (there is a really good chance that you're not the only one that paid for that seat). They also know where all the real rockerboys hang out.
They can usually be found outside Metal Heaven (a music store). They sometimes get hardware handouts there in return for their "protection". And they can sometimes get lucky with rockerboy celebrities that stop by the store looking for new strings and few disposable groupies.[1]
After The Night City Holocaust, many of the DJs scattered, dissolving the gang during the Time of the Red.[2]
