From my understanding, I was under the impression that the venues
themselves paid a yearly fee to the performing rights society. I
believe that's how Apra, the Australian performing rights org does it.
Only problem here is that pool of money usually ends up in the
accounts of The Pussycat Dolls rather than Dopplereffeckt.

if dj's become become classified as "performers" and thus compelled

then why would you want a log of all those tracks going to ASCAP,
BMI, etc unless you play almost exclusively tracks that you would
benefit from being played - i.e. you are also the producer and/or own
the label that released them?
