working with the crowd is something beyond my knowledge

If you see lack of promotion on the organizers part, then I say do it yourself if you are that worried about it. I know when that day comes for me, I'll be promoting no matter what!

fact is i know what promoting is like in my town. there are about four big promoters of d+b that battle for all the custom... so any posters i have put up in the past needed replacing after half an hour!! plus i am doing a favour djing for free to help build the scene in the area. im leaving soon thank god. there is a dire lack of good trance dj's /nights here. the least the guy can do is ensure the dj's have the audience they deserve, especially as theyare doing it for free for him.

I can see how everything can be annoying except the opening DJ part. A good DJ is always able to build upon whatever the previous DJ did for them without having to worry about a thing.

YOU CAN DO IT!!!! DON'T LET THE LITTLE THINGS GET ON YOUR WAY!!!!

Soon, you'll learn to not let them bother you. I know I have.


Good luck!

hmmm. you mixed techno into a house set. thats fine most people who can mix, can mix into anything but mixing techno which is around 140+ bpm into house which is at the 130 mark is going to sound really shit. who goes to listen to techno at 130 bpm?

Techno isn't always 140bpm. There's slower techno, which you can build from.

fact is that people in the uk these days expect a tougher style of trance/techno as the night progresses. they love some prog to chill to at the beginning. to get the feet tapping. the fact is that the crowd will be fed a load of harder stuff at the start cos the first guy cant warm up, then the guy in the middle will lower the drive just when people wanna start dancing, then they will either be bored or put off by the time i get on. so ill need to warm them up fresh.. im sorry, i can fit into a roster wether its a warm up set or peak time set but a night just doesnt work when the middle dj cant drive a crowd. the dj present at the most crucial point when people wanna dance.

Start with some tech-house and build that into some straight techno.

end the night with hardstyle!
