Call for help! Playing music you hate and a sad realization.

[djtanner]

First off, here is my idea:

I would like to get a list of tracks going.
A list of tracks that im sure alot of you hate, but the rest of the world loves.
You know, the ones that make everybody scream when the come in
No mater what club your playing at.
I feel that this could be a great resource for the whole DJTT community.

Im pretty sure there are other djs that are like me. The ones love electronic music because its different, its not the same shit you hear every day on the radio. You generaly stick to spinning a certain genre, weather it be electro, progressive, dubstep whatever it may be and consequently, you might not pay too much attention to some of the more commercial, more main stream music.

Lets just say your playing a club that is completely new to you and your style is something along the lines of electro/fidget/wobble... The whole night your getting requests for top40 or hip hop, drake or lady gaga. you have the promoter in your booth freaking out because the people aren't dancing and you have nothing to save the night.This happened to me for the first time the other night, and im positive that i cant be the only one here.

Let me be the first to get this list started so you can see where im going with this.

Lady gaga - bad romance
Notorious B.I.G. - hypnotize
3 6 mafia - Stay Fly
Drake - Forever

stay fly is a really good song

[Bassline Brine]

I swear that having a wife or girlfriend who listens to main stream music is a LIFESAVER when it comes to that department.

That's how I know that certain "electro" remixes of songs are near what someone would want to actually dance to, because the original is "so much better."

david guetta & akon - sexy bitch -THE WORST

[Be-Ne-Dek]

Should I just export my entire library into a .txt for you? lol

I'm the type of person that your looking for, I listen to it all, and i mean ALL.

When I do this type of stuff, I usually play electro(y), dance(y) (depending on track) remixes, that way, people get to listen to the jams they like aaaaaand you get your rocks off too

I have plenty of top40 remixes for you that will make the crowd go wild...

Here's a .txt of my Popular Remixes folder, I don't have time to clean it up, but the song names and artists are there....

La Roux - In For The Kill (Skream's Lets Get Ravey Mix). I know fans of dubstep will agree.... soooo overplayed.

I find The Proclaimers go down like an absolute bomb in every situation, however I hate them. I'm not joking*

*I am joking

I'm down with saying anything by Lady Gaga. Anything.

I just hate it all, and I tried, I tried so hard.

Oh, and The World is Mine by David Guetta.

[Jester]

I played lady gaga at our first gig, and just as everyone started going crazy, scratched off it and played trance muahaha

[f0tif0]
