What does "cd mixed by xyz DJ" mean?

Does it mean there is no break between tracks?

Thanks

It usually means it was mixed live, and that each song has contiguous lead-ins and lead-outs which have been beatmatched.

I'd add that it's not necessarily mixed "live" - it could be done in a studio, on computers, etc. I have a whole bunch that aren't mixed live and you can tell - they are just too perfect and would require multiple turntables, samplers and such.

Check out 'Journeys By DJ' series the COLDCUT mix is one of the best.

The London Club, 'Fabric' also has a great series of discs by various DJ's that are worth checking out, Tower has all the CD on this month's listening station in the Dance section.
