What tracks should I spin at a high school party?

I've been invited to play at a party next week. Most of the audience will be high schoolers. What kind of tracks should I play? I normally spin trance and electro house. I know that high schoolers normally listen to what's on the radio, which I really don't follow. I'm thinking of playing remixes of top40 songs and mix in some progressive at one point. I don't think I should spin any sort of house, but IDK.

Play the following:

01. Robert Miles - Children
02. Darude - Sandstorm
03. Ian Van Dahl - Castles in the Sky
04. Robert Miles vs. Darude - Children of the Sandstorm
05. Ian van Miles - Children in the Castle
06. Ian van Darude - Sandstorm the Castle!

Repeat as necessary and you'll be golden.

Edit: Seriously though, Top 40 =\

Someone had a thread around here that had a tracklist he played for a high school. It was 80% all remixes of top40 songs.

That's what I'm assuming. The host (it's his birthday) likes EDM, but I doubt that the other do.

Well that changes everything.

If he's into EDM, and it's his birthday (and given that there will be substances consumed), play stuff he'll dig, and get everyone else into it once they're all fucked up on whatever sorts of Wine Coolers and candied liquors you young folks are digging these days.

Good luck.
