ok so I have entered a competition for a warm-up set half 8 - to half 9, scott project is headlining that night and the resident playing from half 9 onwards plays mostly house/electro. From what i hear i think i have got the set, but am unsure on what to play, any sets i do are always trance and progressive, normally 133bpm onwards, obviously i'm going to have to drop that to about 128bpm no more than 130bpm max, should i stick with 128 - 130 bpm trance or switch style completely? any help is much appreciated

Bring it on down son, so you can get done, I got more styles than the miles to the sun,
Ninety three million five thousand flows, and heres one more for the HOoOoOoOOO'S!!!

The best thing to do, would be to play a load of Scot Project tracks (no more than four) slowed down to circa 133BPM. That way you'll get the crowd worked up for Scot Project, when he comes on later.

If your playing before a house/electro Dj I wouldn't have thought you want to be playing such a high tempo, you are in essence warming up for the resident who is warming up for Scott project Ideally you would be swapping slots if that's what you are playing.
If not deep house, progressive, tech house or soulful house would probably be best.

My first attempt at a track

Hypnotic Dreams - Classic Prog Trance mix
Eternal Sound - Progressive Trance mix
One for the Underground - Dark Progressive mix

If you have to ask others what to play then you're in trouble.

stick with your deep trance style imo, its a decent flow for the night theoretically. bring the energy up towards scott project.

I'd say play better and epic/uplifting shit than the person after you and pretend you didn't know his music was so bland and pale in comparison to yours.

"Warm Up" songs that I've personally seen at raves in 2007:

Tiesto - Ten Seconds Before Sunrise
Deadmau5 - Not Exactly (Original Mix)
Imogen Heap - Hide N Seek (Tiesto's In Search of Sunrise Remix)
that-lion-king-remix-song-by-dada-life

others
Cabala - Dark Blue (Original Mix)
Sasha - Xpander
Mirco De Govia - Epic Monolith
Pulser - Cloudwalking (Astral Mix)

go for the hard hitter shit just to troll the next DJ

lots of vocals....you want to win the crowd over esp the girls...

Lasgo - Something
ATB - Let U Go
Whiteroom - Whiteroom

if you want straight up pussy

play this

DJ Pauly D - Beat Dat Beat
