Opinions about the tracklist i have to play

I get to spin for one of my first times next weekend and i get like an hour set and this are the tracks i'm thinking about playing. I want constructive opinions on how good or bad my choices are. Consider i get to play for a crowd who used to listen "cheese breaks".

01. DJ Tiesto - Lethal Industry (Original Mix)
02. Scooter - Ramp! The Logical Song (Jay Frog Mix)
03. Out Of Grace - Obscura (A1 Mix)
04. Apollo 440 - Stop The Rock (Gigolo Instrumental)
05. Vanox & Scandle - The Prime Suspect (A1 Mix)
06. Out Of Grace - Obscura (B1 Mix)
07. E-Wok - Go Back (Original Mix)
08. Witchboard Project - The Fog
09. Three Drives On A Vinyl - Greece 2000
10. Chicane - Saltwater (Original Mix)

Now thats where you come in...

Opening track is an oldie but goodie, I tend to like nice long symphonic intros though. The apollo 440 track is def. going to make them dance!

POIFECT! That one will get them up!

I admit I don't know some of the songs on your list, but the one suggestion I can think of is, why is Chicane the last song? I think of that as a slow, getting into the groove more close to the beginning of the set song... what do you think?

Oh whoops...I didn't ask, are you spinning before someone or after, or last...where are you with respect to the rest of the night? ;-)

Firstly, why do you play two versions of Obscura when you only have one hour? Unless they're pretty different, I wouldn't recommend that.. But I don't know both mixes, so maybe you're right after all.

Secondly, do you think it is good to have planned everything you are going to play? What if the crowd doesn't like your sound?

I'm playing chicane last because its pretty chill comparing to the rest of the tracks and it ends with breakbeats which would the DJ after me probably would spin

Yes, the obscura mixes are completely different, you will never know its a same song unless you own the vinyl.

I think the sound is good, i planned this tracklist specifically for peopel that will be there. All tracks are very melodic and catchy. If there are some tracks you dont know, you may download them and you'll see what i'm talking about. Otherwise i would throw more deeper, progressive sound if i would play for more mature audience. Whats gonna be tere is crackhead/candy kid central. Oh well, its one of my first tryes, gotta start somewhere

Tracklist needs: Kaylab- Do Not Attempt

I've been hammering this one lately!

ermmm.. coupla oldies in there..... not too sure about ewok - go back .. a little too hard housey dont ya think? and scooter???? lol

Yea the tracklisting is pretty one sided there but i would throw something deeper in there for you, something like mobe - extreme ways (gabriel & dresden mix) or STaphane K's southern sun mix

thatz the spirit! uve certainly got the right idea!

there r 2 kinda of DJ's.......the one who will play the music because they love it themselves and are passionate about it.........and the kind that spin whatever they must to please the crowd! you seem to be the kind who will spin for the crowd, and for that i respect u! IMO the tracklist greatly depends on the crowd u r spinning for.

keep this up mate and u'll go places with dj'ing

Thanx!, actually i am DJ that passionate about my music, but i am passionate as well as progressive and epic side and depending on my crowd i will spin the tracks i will think would make the given crowd happy, but he tracks that i will play are the ones i'm passionate about

three drives on a vinyl mixes very nice with lethal industry mixing out especially very nice layered


just a suggestion

i like how your varying your set i would love to hear it live... B side to obscura? i should take a listen to that i havent really taken notice to it!!

I will definately look into mixing 3 drives into lethal industry.

B side of obscura is great, i even think its better then original

you have one hour.
one hour to play your best set.
one hour to make a LASTING IMPRESSION ON THE CROWD YOUR GOING TO PLAY IN FRONT OF.
i know you've gone through all your vinyls and decided this set is the set that is going to rock the crowd.



BANG IT.


go with your gut.your tracklist is fine.nobodys always a fan of what you like.that doesen't mean the crowd won't be gettin down to your sound.HAVE FUN AND LET US KNOW HOW IT WAS......

fucking werd!!

Play Dj Tiesto - Lethal Industry <----either Mid-Set or your closer, does not belong in the beggining.

hehe i suggest you stop all the records and play saltwater from scratch at the end.. it will sound very nice.. soothing..


then again.. you are opening right?

maybe you should start off with satlwater (i know its a bithc to mix out of ) think about it. you are going to be opening for drum and base (faster music) you donnt want to bring your crowd down.. so take that in mind as well

if you were ending the night i would say that that would be the perfect lineup.. but since thats not the case.. i would think twice maybe
