My 2 cents...
While I like elements of the logos so far (I like the font on the first
set, makes me think of m-audio), I think the logo needs a DJ in there.
I can't draw for crap, but I'll describe how I can envision fitting one in.
1) First possibility -> replacing the M:
DJ with arms reaching slightly out to each side, each hand resting on a
turntable. DJ is wearing a hat, monitor, dark hoodie that is 75% unzipped.
A t-shirt visible between zippers with "DJ". The dark hoodie forms the
M. Here's a brutal ascii representation
_-O-_
/ \ / \
/ /| V |\ \
/ / | | \ \
(___) (___)
2) Second possibility -> replacing one of the X's:
DJ w/ light coloured short sleeve shirt covering dark long sleeve shirt,
with hat on, cross-scratching on two turn tables (left arm on right table,
right arm on left table). The long sleeve shirt sleeves form the X.
This option is likely easier to pull off... picture this guy:

I like the idea of using the font style from the first set of logos with
this crossed DJ as the last X.
Thoughts?
Cheers
