Music Suggestions

[suchuwato]

I'm the dj at a party soon, and i've already got the music sorted, but I get a half hour to play what I want... I need suggestions - want to go out with a bang. (big tunes, rock remixes, dance music with orchestral?)

 

let's make a playlist

[IUMaestro]

what kind of party - what kind of people will be there - what age group???

[suchuwato]

From my kinda age to about 35 maybe...

[hardnrg]

Busta Rhymes - Fire It Up (samples "Knight of the Phoenix")

- everyone loves Knight Rider!

 

MC Hammer - You Can't Touch This

- best cheesy track ever lol... get people to "do the hammer" for bonus points

 

Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc

- pretty much everyone i know loves this track no matter what music they like

 

Moped - The Final Countdown

- moped are a scooter (piss-take) tribute band lol

http://www.emmetonline.co.uk/moped/music.htm

 

i could almost do a 1/2 hour session of pure Moped but The Final Countdown is their masterpiece imo... and anyone who's grown up in the UK will get the references to the Countdown quiz-show

 

The Beatnuts - Watch Out Now

Technotronic - Pump Up The Jam

Michael Jackson - Billie Jean

- class party tunes

 

i dunno what else to suggest... it's hard to play a set for a bunch of random people who like all sorts of music... well, it's hard for everyone to like it if you're trying to play anything new or slightly non-mainstream heh...

 

i normally just play breaks or some of the less hard techno/house stuff i have if i'm playing (but i play continuous sets on decks so i pretty much have to play the stuff i'd play at home or in clubs)

 

good luck anyway... play Moped - The Final Countdown at the end of your set!!!! will take everyone by surprise and everyone will remember you as dj god hehe

^ ... Yeah. I ask 'coz I'm not really into that kinda music... I'm playing a half-hour of awesome rock and punk that i've remixed (hopefully sounds good) but I have to cater for all tastes .... Any suggestions of good current dance music that people are playing (not to hardcore techno-y)

The funniest thing is watching westwood and some ridiculously hairstyled bloke who I can only assume is from essex attempting to pimp out peoples rides, UK style.

 

Lanky middle aged white man who thinks he's a big black man (Westwood) -

 

"Well you like football, so we've installed this thing which makes your citroen saxo vtr smell like a damp changing room.. the original masculine aroma."

 

Big Dog my arse..

 

Put it this way.. It would amuse me greatly if a large brick fell from a large height, splitting his cranium like a ripe melon.

Not that I have anything against him as a person of course
