Help me...

I'm having business cards made up for myself as a DJ.. downtempo, house, etc. All the information is easy, obviously, except for a descriptive line.. you know, the line that says what my service actually is...
I can't just use: "DJ".. that's a little too blah. I'm not yet a producer, so that doesn't go on there.. s
so.. what's a creative, interesting way to tell someone in 5 words or less that I am a DJ? that i provide a musical service... w/out sounding like a lifeless object or super-dork...
a little dork is ok, just gotta walk that fine line...
anyone?
bueller? bueller?
i'm not good w/ words... i could assign myself a pretty awesome number, though, i bet...

Until you learn to spin something besides house and downbeat, you probably shouldn't start making up cards. Promoters will toss them once they hear what you're playing.
Go back to your studio and try mixing something worthwhile

Is that a serious post? Where exactly are you from and what do you consider something that is worth playing? I'm a promoter and I'm pretty sure that any serious promoter won't throw aside a card due to the type of music listed, ESPECIALLY house or downbeat. House is probably the most popular out of all electronic music in any club today. WTF are you talking about?

Nice one, I've been using the tagline "An Aural Experience" for my subwoofer business since I started the business in 2004. I still have the line on my webpage, but it's not nearly as prominent as it used to be. I just don't think most people get it.
Yosch.. you could always call yourself a Block Rocking Beat(nic)  Haha... yea I suck. Good luck man! In the end, it's a very minor consideration. How you represent yourself and perform your trade is where the money is (but you probably know that already).

of course, in the end my abilities are going to be the deciding factor to being contacted.. not what's on my card.. (at least i really hope so)..
but, I think it's good to have something on the card that says what you are doing so that if a person has the card just sitting there, they will have something to remind them...
