i have a gig in a few weeks
it's a formal/ball for college students type thing, and they want me to bring some slow dance and country songs, just to cater to a wider variety of crowds. (i'm gonna bring mostly house/pop) but i have absolutely NO IDEA what to bring. can someone tell me a few slow dance and country dance classics, if possible ones that i can mix fairly well into a set? don't worry about availability, i'm doing this on cds so i can just get stuff off of p2p (i'm not buying any vinyl of phil collins, thanks) fuck, i don't even know how i'm gonna pull this off. how do you mix slow dance into a house set? HELLLPPPP ;o;

You can save that for the peak of your 'slow and melancholy' section.

rsp · 7th January 2005

you should ask aphex twin, how to enjoy the audience...or wevie stonder

pille'ocheoni · 7th January 2005

man mixing out of house into slow songs is easy. i have always hated perfect unchanging tempo dj's they suck. find a breakdown in the house track, and swap knobs with the upcoming slow tracks and wadda! by the time your break down is over your mood has changed. barfitsafa dj's rock

goone · 7th January 2005

isnt the dj supposed to be the selectah?

everyone loves the cure , forget about the house

thomas hooked · 7th January 2005

Dj'ing for an unsympathetic crowd isn't rocket science. you only need four or five "trigger songs" that will keep the ruminants happy- a bit of madonna, some chic- you can get in out of this to pretty much much any decent record you like via three degrees of nile rogers/jellybean benitez....
of course bootlegs make it even easier if you can bear such a low, low tactic. i think i've got a britney/little computer people bootleg somewhere from days of yore.

and if your really desperate, play Blue Monday

7th January 2005

Just play the full version of rappers delight and one of the many 'Love is the message' edits 30 times in a row.

TheWasp · 7th January 2005

Marvin Gaye , u can't go wrong

7th January 2005

I would never attend one of those nights never mind play there. Hope you is being paid a whack or she's damn pretty. She better taste of chocolate.

7th January 2005

Up the standard and just play rare groove. check out a CD of 100% dynamite and hit soulseek then add in a few of That's What I Call Music 50. Sorted.

TimB · 7th January 2005

Play some Johnny Cash.

Jeniffer Mills · 7th January 2005

Speedpolka should do the job.....Btw..I like your website.
