Familiarity in sets

After this summer, I return to the small town where I study, and there isn't really an EDM scene there. Im getting gigs, but I want to create more familiarity in my sets with somewhat known tracks remixed into house and trance...or even just the melody of a famous track.

Some examples;
Brazen-Toto
Anna Nalick-2am(blake jarrel)
snow patrol-chasing cars(blake jarrel)
Proper Education

Help would be greatly appreciated

Even if they are mixes of top 40 tracks like

Pussycatdolls - Dont Cha (Kaskade Mix)
Justin Timberlake - My Love (Paul Oakenfold Mix)
Justin Timberlake - Like I Love You (Basement Jaxx Vocal Mix)
(also check out the 'Acid Dub'. Killer tune!)
Mary J Blige - Be Without You (Promo Only Remix)
Madonna - Sorry (PSB Maxi-Mix)

Get a subscription to Promo Only's Mainstream Club series. That should give you a decent variety on a fairly regular basis. (www.promoonly.com)

Shame on you for not giving me credit for that post

Buy yeah, you might want to try laying some new Accapellas on top of the dubs of your EDM tracks. I might try doing something like that soon, because good EDM remixes of Top40 end up in the circuit/gay realm more often than not...

No.

But my sis goes to school at Kingston and it's good to know where I can go for some decent tunes whenever I come for a visit.
