This is an interesting topic, but i wouldn't rely on it for accuracy.
The PPL license allows the mixing of music tracks LIVE. If you record your set (using vdj record function for example) and then play your recorded mix back in a nightclub you are breaking the law.
The licenses allow for live public performances only. Ie, if you are playing something you've already recorded, and you do not have the permission of the copyright holders, you are breaking the law.
The scale of any demo tape can be considered illegal if you record a track and then distribute it as part of a CV, job application etc.
This is quite a complicated matter with mistakes already being posted early on.

unless you have an mcps licence , which grants licence to use other peoples music for a demo or for sale , royalties may still apply too
