Disk Jockey简称DJo jockey这个词是很早就有的，做名词是指专业的骑手：作动词是指挥马匹或让其他东西处于良好的运动状态。20世纪30年代，广播进入了美国人的生活，信息传播的速度大大加快。 1940年，电视机又取代了广播，除新闻之外，大多数娱乐节目都转向电视播放。此时，广播希望通过某些方式夺回其在娱乐节目上的地位，于是新的意义上的jockey就出现了：数以万计的电台开始播放音乐录音带( discs)，同时聘请熟悉音乐的人士担任解说。人们很喜欢这种娱乐方式，有些解谠人因此而非常出名。逐渐地，电台播出的音乐录音带对听众选购录音带产生了很大影响，音乐制作人和唱片公司纷纷将录音带送到电台，希望多多宣传。于是，一个新的职产生了：disc jockeys被用来指代那些音乐解说人，因为他们引导了听众的音乐欣赏口味和音乐本身的流行趋势。
