Different tunes in one set

(if this is the wrong forum for my thread please shift it)

Which order would you prefer when putting the following tracks in one set:

Agnelli and Nelson - Everyday(extended)
Armin - Blue Fear
Art of Trance - Mongoose(Tektonik Remix)
Atwater Syndicate - Caliente
BT - Believer
Chicane - Mojave
Galaxy - Higher Frequency
G&M Project - Sunday Afternoon (Original Mix)
Grinder - Runaway(Original Mix)
Jakatta - American Dream(Afterlife Mix)
Kaistar - The Promethean Groove(Deepsky Remix)
Lolo - Why?
Lp - Progress
Nickelson - Ying(Solid Globe Remix)
Patient Saints - Imperpetuum Mobila
Sasha - Xpander
Signum - In Progress
Solid Globe - North Pole
Son Kite - Massive
X-Trax - Plan 94(The Voyage)(Northface Remix)
Yellow Blackboard - Superfly(Andy Moor Remix)
Yellow Screen - Out of time

I know these tunes do not really match, but I was asked to create a set out of them so I will do. I am grateful for any help of you.

you only have 1124000727777607680000 possible combinations, it's not so hard to figure out which one's the best.

Just don't play these back to back, as they're essentially the same track.

yeah, a lot of these tracks sound pretty similar
[for example "Out of time"/"progress"/"in progress"/plan 94(the voyage)(northface remix)/even some elements of "runaway"]

This is exactly why I(as a n00b) need your pool of wisdom to suggest
a decent tracklist for those tunes.

If this is the wrong board for my concern, please shift this thread into the correct board.

Mate, if you want to progress as a DJ you've got to make the decision for yourself, not let other people decide for you.

Exactly man! Do it yourself, then put up with the comments and critisms as they come. Play for the right reasons... play for yourself

I'd say alphabetical...

so

keep it!

All sets should be mixed alphabetically!

actually skip was right.
it's 22x21x20x19x...x2x1 = 1124000727777607680000

I wouldn't correct someone at maths if you don't know how to do it yourself.

Take a scientific calculator. Enter the number of tunes (22) and press "!" after it. The answer is the total number of possible combinations, assuming that none of the set of 22 are the same. There's a formula for how the "!" key works, but I can't (nor need to) remember it.

1.12x10^21 is the right answer.

Haha, he could use the same track more than one time couldnt he?
Ok, I admit.. forgot that

Alphabetically sounds like a great idea! Would be cool to do with a good tracklist tho

Dude, relax? I know how permutations work

So skip and myself were right

22! (or 22 nPr 22) do the trick on my Texas Instruments-83

Be aware that 22! is the same as calculating 22x21x20x19x...x2x1, for the not-so-geniuses, only difference being that the scientific calc gives 1.12x10^21 as an answer for 22!, and 1124000727777607680000 for 22x21x20x19x...x2x1.

It gave me a much more accurate answer. I just couldn't be arsed to write it.

Yeah got it too on the TI-83 here, thought I'd stick to the 1.12x10^21 too, keeping it easy

1.124000728x10^21, I'd probably have to make it 1.12 or 1.124 on a math test anyway, getting used to rounding it off

i think it's ok, but it's the shittiest proper TI there is, so i doesn't have nearly all the functions i'd want. anyway far better than casio or some other crap calculator!

I didn't ask for how many possibilities exist to create a tracklist but thanks anyway.

Despite making fun of me there might be still somebody out of all those TAs that can give me a good suggestion for a tracklist.

i hate threads like this.
