I've been asked to DJ at an afterhours event and this will be my first "big" gig. I have a 90 minute opening slot from 12-1:30am. Is there an etiquette with the song selection during this time slot? My set will include mostly tech house, minimal and techno. I know the normal thing to do in a normal club with a headline DJ is to set the mood and not "go crazy", but does this rule still apply with an afterhours party? Do I need to keep my set to a medium level or can I get the party jumping as if I was the only one playing that night? Any tips or advice anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
