ive just started playing 18’ths and need to find some more banging party tunes for example my fave ever
Pursuit of happiness ( steve aoki remix )
anyone got any good suggestions?
i dropped the RL grime bootleg of satisfaction and that went off as well !
Call Me Maybe mixed in with Gangnam Style is always a treat I am just joshing, but that Pursuit of Happiness is big. I know it is pretty old now, but MIA - Paper Planes is still one of my faves.
As others have said above, it is always nicer to find your own big songs, as you get that feeling where you can’t wait to DJ next so you can play it to everyone. Follow blogs, listen to mixes, and one where I find loads of my favourite tracks, are film soundtracks and adverts. Just always be on the lookout ("hear"out?) for songs you like and would fit different events. Or just for listening at home.
Spend some time digging through the ‘new’ section of your chosen genre on beatport, sometimes you can pick out some gems that never make it big (or before they make it big) to make your set a little different to everyone else’s.
As others have said, digging is part of the fun of being a DJ
How about you pull your head out of your arse? Mans gone onto a music forum to ask for some tunes. Hes made an effort. Would you expect to go into a record shop ask the person behind the counter to recommend some music and have him tell you sorry look for yourself.
Go to soundcloud, add a bunch of big names (Sander, Pete Tong, Quintino has a good one etc) and look at their weekly radio shows. If you click on more info they usually have tracklists which are chock full of some of the most up to date songs that you’ll find around (as long as the radio show isn’t old).
You’ll find more good new music there then you will ever hope to incorporate.
guys I appreciate the advice but I always dig for my tunes eg deep /tech house , minimal etc. I spend most ofmy time sorting through tracks and have a very unique collection compared to anyone else I kno amd I am so proud of that !
I was just wondering what everyone else loves to play at house parties as im new to doing them,
Tescor you can use the world wide web it’s just a click away… you can check on the billboards or visit social networks related to music and DJing like soundcloud there’s so much mixes available there for your party. Or you can sign up to music pools or EAT A NICE SANDWICH I know the internet won’t fail you on this! Enjoy your party!
