My Friend dropped out of a genre mash-up competition and suggested me to them instead. It's on Tuesday and I have 15 minutes to play *at least* three different genres. I do have a choice of equipment, so I'm hoping to use my 4 deck Traktor set up (Faderfoxes for now) which should ease the pain a bit. I'm so far out of my comfort zone it's not even funny. I'm not a turntablist by any means but as a fall back the have Serato (which I've used a bit) and will take my Traktor timecodes in case.
I usually play between Progressive and Techno but I think this will need to be a bit breaksy so will play some of these tracks:
Prodigy - Smack my bitch up << opener
Kraftwerk - It's more fun to compute
Shannon - Let the music play
Drummatic - Feelin Kinda Strange (Bass Kleph)
Joey Beltram - Energy Flash
Le Funk Mob - Motorbass Get Funked Up (Electrofunk)
Evil Nine - We have the energy (album version)
Cybotron - Clear
Klaxons - The bouncer (Gorky mix)
UNKLE - Reign (WoW mix)
Don't think I can play all of them (Reign is 12 mins long, but damn it's awesome) but some will just be looped as backing. I figure having a pool of music to use and just keeping it loose will work best.
Anyone want to weigh in? I want to get a good variation of recognisable and out there tracks.
/livejournal To top it off I have a blood test tomorrow and the day after this set is my work performance assessment at 10 am!
PS if anyone here is also in that compo, this track list is (c) copyright, 2010. :P
PPS two more sleepless nights!
