I could only handle it for about 2 seconds before I turned it off. This feature is a joke.

More broadly, there is clearly some obsession in Spotify's leadership with pushing anything vocal into listeners ears. This "DJ" feature is just a zero-effort extension of this. I still can't figure out why they are so obsessed with this. Perhaps there is some kind of correlation between tracks with affordable royalties and shitty vocal samples. I encourage anyone who is confused by my little rant to locate something like an instrumental-only EDM playlist on Spotify right now. You'll probably make it 2-3 tracks in before you get lit up with precisely the opposite of what you had requested.
