Not sure how many of you have done middle school dances. I have a gig in about 1.5 months for the 8th grade in my district.( i go the the high school in the same district) I do a big setup and cut the school a break on price, but, my hardest thing is getting them to start dancing. naturally they do after about a half hour of music playing.
It's 8th grade and i understand that getting them to dance is hard anyways, but what type of music have you had good success with at theses type of events?
In the past i mostly play the "hip" music like stuff played on z107.7, which most of it can be hard to dance to anyways. This year i want to try some more edm and electronic music, big room house type stuff. Similar to what they play at tomorrowland.
Just don't know how well it goes over with younger crowds.
Thanks for the input
