I'm sure not many of us have tried this, but...I have access to a remote
SlimServer at the moment.

This works just fine with a Squeezebox!

In network setup, you specify the IP address of the SlimServer.  This
is always assumed to be on your LAN, but you can specify a remote IP
address here.  It works perfectly.  And you can revert back to your
local SlimServer in a few seconds.

Of course, you are subject to Internet bandwidth, so bitrate limiting
may be necessary, but this works perfectly fine as well.

Now this is for playback through SlimServer, which would be much more
powerful than DJ software.  If you wanted to play back through DJ
software the user wouldn't have much control but it would be easy to do
as an Internet radio stream, either through the user's local SlimServer
or SqueezeNetwork.  But try out the SlimServer/remote Squeezebox
method, it works amazingly well from what I just tried out a few
minutes ago.
