and i see him in sainsburys quite a bit

Since you brought him up, i recall Fatboy Norm saying in an interview that half the time, he does nothing to the songs, hardly even mixing them into one another or tweaking anything, and the crowd just goes nuts when certain songs drop, so he does his wave. At least he recognizes that it's the music that moves people, and he has a little humor for the people who don't realize he's just playing records. Technically, he is a crap DJ, but he does get the crowd moving.

Agreed that there are too many "superstar DJs" these days that just milk the crowd.
(anyone seen "It's All Gone Pete Tong"? Great movie!)
If they're an actual producer, that gives them some cred (unless of course the music is trash or they endlessly play their own tunes).
