There is no right answer to this. Depends on the club, it's scene, and who is headlining.
Just download Hardwell's beatport chart every month! Easy peasy
Ooohhh!! Doctor Jones! Filled err.. many a floor with that..
The floor AROUND the dancefloor..
What you need to do is go to the type of clubs you want to play at. See what kind of stuff is played there. Learn the music, the artists, who to look out for, and look at the remixes your chosen artists do. If you can fall in with a DJ even better, but working DJ's can be very territorial if they think their patch is threatened by new DJ's. Ya might find one who will give ya an opening slot.
Really, you need to pick your genres, no point in playing in a house music venue if your chosen beats are electro house, you won't know your music, you won't know your audience, and to bluntly put it, putting yourself out of the game.. I'm mobile, I stopped club work years ago to concentrate on other things, and I'm not going to take a club gig now unless I know that I have the knowledge of the music that the venue's clients expect.
On a side note, Venues here, are totally screwed up. I remember losing a great residency, because the managers buddy wanted to be a DJ, undercut my price, took the job and a month later, had the place empty. By which point I had another residency when they came running back.. couldn't help em, and his mate had a sudden realisation, that he wasn't a good dj. Something to consider, if you do get into a venue, you want to keep your residency and keep your reputation for when you do move on to bigger things. Don't jump into the scene until you are ready, and you know what you're about.
