    Default How to play a Halloween party effectively

    Hello DJTT, I will be playing a mainstream local night club for the 3rd Halloween in a row and wanted to here if anyone has any brilliant Halloween tracks?! I usually will warm up housey and work my way up to mainstream dance music I usually like to toss in a few 80's classics (Duran duran, MJ etc.) as I see them fitting the Halloween vibe. Any comments, 2 cents, suggestions are welcomed!!

    Warren Zevon - Werewolves Of London
    Billy Idol - White Wedding or Rebel Yell
    Rob Zombie - Dragula
    Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party

    Really, anything with a bit of a spooky or scary theme will work. I also played Nine Inch Nails - Hand That Feeds and a few other Classic Rock songs in my set.

    Search for a mashup - I like to move it (ghostbusters), ray parker junior & reel 2 reel. Cheesey, but I always get a decent reaction from it..

    As foi ideas -
    CCR - Bad moon rising
    ACDC - Highway to hell
    Doors - People are strange
    Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells (can be used very effectively with beat loop)
    Stevie Wonder - Superstition
    Rockwell - Somebody's watchin me
    Somethin by Alice Cooper
    Brainbug - Nightmare (sinister strings mix)
    Brainbug - Benedictus
