is everyone just collectively pretending to like DJs but privately everyone feels too bad for them to tell them that actually the original songs were better

i don't think i've ever heard a DJ that gives good melody. And i've been to a lot of fancy parties where they paid the DJ a lot

Yeah, if a mix modifies the original in such a way (removing the melody, adding beats), it's considered a Remix, which is the domain of Producers, not DJs. By "structural changes" I was referring to a mostly-defunct 80s-era practice of restructuring-sans-destruction.

In general, melody is deemphasized in dance music because the method of engagement is different than with popular or "listening" music. Your response to dance music is physically embodied, so rhythm (and bass, which physically pushes you) influences your response much more.
