Resident DJ is the Nightclub management app which can lead to a series of four Free Mode missions in Grand Theft Auto Online introduced as part of the GTA Online: After Hours update.
Description[]
After purchasing a Nightclub and viewing the introductory cutscene with Tony Prince and Lazlow Jones, the player must conduct Setup work to start up their business. There are three setup jobs to be conducted, Staff, Equipment and recruit a DJ. The first two must be completed (in any order) before the third becomes available.
DJ recruitment is required. From July 24 to July 31 2018, Solomun was the only DJ available. Players are automatically sent to collect Solomun after a short cutscene once the second nightclub setup job is complete.
After completing all of the setup, access is provided to the management computers in the office and warehouse levels.
After the first week, multiple DJs became available, so the player could choose which DJs to recruit using the management application. They may also receive a call from English Dave telling them about new DJs and allowing them to recruit the DJs on the spot if desired.
Once DJs are recruited, the app allows the player to manage them. New DJs cost $100,000 to book, and switching back to a previously used DJ costs $10,000.
DJ missions[]
Solomun[]
Tony Prince sends the player and English Dave in Tony's Schafter V12 to LSIA to pick up Solomun who is due to arrive on a private jet. The pilot passes out just as the plane is approaching and Solomun takes the controls and crash-lands at Sandy Shores Airfield while the player chases the jet.
The player then drives back to the nightclub with Solomun and Dave.
Other members of the player's Organizations or Motorcycle Clubs can assist by following the jet but can not drive the car. They can provide protection on the way back to the club from rival players who can not even see the jet but will be able to intercept the player on the return journey to the club for increased popularity of their own clubs if they prevent the delivery of the DJ.

Trivia[]
- The plane shown in the cutscene of Solomun getting out of the crash-landed plane will have a random livery which may be different to the in-game rendered MyFly livery. Markings may include FlyUS or Air Herler.
Tale of Us[]
English Dave says Tale Of Us have a contract rider (additional details added to a contract) which dictates they need to be picked up in an Enus Stafford which will have to be stolen off the back of a transporter trailer.
If the player owns a Stafford, it cannot be used to pick up Tale of Us at LSIA, the mission requires the player to steal it off the transporter.
The player shoots the lower hinges of the transporter to release firstly a Vapid Flash GT and then the upper hinges at the sides to release a RUNE Cheburek before the Stafford falls safely to the road and can be stolen. The transporter is indestructible and the driver cannot be shot so it will continue doing a loop of the map until the player shoots out the hinges or an unseen time limit of 30 minutes[vague] expires. Other rival and associate players can see the transporter at all times but it is indestructible to them too. It is possible to cause the truck to jack-knife and detach the trailer, making the hinges an easy static target. Three shots from a Pistol are sufficient to take out each hinge. Once the Stafford is retrieved, the transporter loses its indestructibility.
The player must then evade any wanted level before travelling to LSIA where Dave is waiting and they can collect the DJs and deliver them to their club. Rival players can then intercept the Stafford and prevent delivery of the DJs to increase the popularity of their own clubs.
Carmine and Matteo are impressed with the car, but on the way back they note that a limo or something would have been just fine. It is revealed that the rider Dave was working from (a Stafford, two gallons of mezcal, and a swimming pool of rubber duckies) was not valid, and all they asked for was their mixer and preferred drinks from the bar. Dave realizes it must have been Lazlow Jones' personal list that he somehow snuck into the contract.

Dixon[]
English Dave says that he is meeting up with Dixon at The Richman Hotel and asks the player to pick them up from there using Tony Prince's Schafter V12.
Upon arrival, Dave is agitated but before he can explain, Dixon walks out of the hotel. Dave acts like nothing is wrong and asks Dixon to hang back, as if needing to discuss business privately with the Protagonist. Dave reveals that while watching the DJ's belongings, he stepped into the bathroom for a hit of cocaine and someone stole Dixon's backpack. Luckily, the apparent thief hurries past right then with the backpack to join his accomplice, who's waiting on a motorcycle. While Dave keeps the unaware Dixon occupied, the player must chase after and take out the thief. The player does not have to use the Tony's car for the chase. Once the thief is killed, the bag can be picked up and returned to the hotel where Dave is waiting with the DJ and the player can then drive them to the club in Tony's car, at which point Rival players can intercept them and take out the DJ for increased popularity of their own club.
On the way back to the club, Dave and Dixon bond over a shared love of football and discuss the LS Benders football team.

The Black Madonna[]
English Dave explains that The Black Madonna is prone to "spontaneous acts of generosity" and is throwing a free rave in an underprivileged area and the LSPD have raided it. The player must travel from their nightclub to Puerto Del Sol helipad where Dave is waiting with a Jetsam Cargobob. The player flies to the location of the rave with Dave and finds Marea being loaded into the back of a squad car. The player airlifts the car containing the DJ and a single LSPD officer away from the scene and loses their wanted level and returns to the helipad. Upon landing, the LSPD officer attempts to arrest them but Marea knocks him out with a single punch and the trio return to the club.
