Could you please help me with this?

To begin with, sorry for the very long post.


By the end of the seventies, DJs knew that the remix could go further than just make a song more functional for the dancefloor. It also offered them a route into the record industry and the means to finally gain recognition as creative artists. By adding stylistic twists, they could give a song the precise musical flavor they wanted, and if their enhancements were individual enough, these would mark out the remixer— rather than the original writer/musician— as the creative force behind a track. If their particular flavor was reasonably consistent over a series of records, a remixer could even develop a “sound,” just like any other recording artist. And since a DJ’s remixes were usually based on the kind of music he chose to play when he performed in a club, the musical style evident on his remixes would serve to reinforce and further distinguish the musical style of his DJing, and vice versa. Through remixing, the DJ had a way of pushing his music in a distinctive direction, both on the dancefloor and in the studio.


As for the underlined 'vise versa', I couldn't quite figure out what this exactly means.


Could someone tell me the contextual meaning of it?


Is the meaning "the musical style of his DJing would serve to reinforce and further distinguish the musical style evident on his remixes"?


Thank you so much.
