Originally posted by Fl@k Monkey Well, Not my 'first' gig.. But my first 'proper' gig. My mate is having a house party, And his mate is having a bday party .. In the same house. So about 40 or so people are to be expected. Iv been elected to be the DJ, Heres the best bit - I dont have to play crap! House/Electro House/Funky House/And some Deep House while everyone is winding down from the alcohol.. I have been told there will be a decent sound system, Light setup, And alcohol.. What more could i ask for? Hopefully this will be the start of something big, I'v been practicing pretty hardcore in hopes i will knock peoples socks off and they will say "Hey, You're a rad dj.. Come play at my party" .. Wishful thinking.. Tips are welcomed And no, This isint a 'help me find music' or 'omg im playing live what do i do!?!' thread. More like me just being really excited i thought id make a thread about it. Seems to be a popular action to take when something interesting happens around here...

So heres your head pat, and good luck getting tips from friends at a house party, lol.

evening to sunrise? that could be a looong set...

good to hear some long sets for new guys... it's a great way to learn, when it's just you and the decks for an exteeended period of time.

Also cool to hear different styles will be played.



What's the scene like down in Brisbane? Or better yet, what's it like in your community?

EDM isin't really popular in this area TBH, Radio/MTV etc.. It's all the same.. Hip hop/Top40 stuff/Very overplayed and annoying songs. Some times you get some good DJs (I think Deadmau5 and Fred Everything are here tonight). We've also had names like Armin Van Buuren and more.

The closest you will generally get to EDM on the radio is usually Nick Skitz stuff. And apparently they sometimes play some Electro house.. If you wan't to hear good music you generally need to find a club in the city/gold coast/chuck your own house party.
