it does make sense. its just different to how you would do it.

Originally posted by rafale I have a huge problem with track selection. In my mind it sounds like a match made in heaven but when I put it on it doesn't quite sound like what I intended it to sound like.

I agree with this!! I often put together a set of tunes which I think will go great together. But for some reason they don't sound right - maybe I did the transition too early or too late. Or sometimes they just clash. Surely you don't want to find this out when you're playing out in a club??!!

I'm not saying totally pre-plan a set from start to finish (which I have done in the past and it went fine - everyone enjoyed it )

I think its a good idea to have a few different ways to start your mix, e.g. if the person on before is playing trance/tech-house/prog then use some similar tunes to bring it round to what you want to play. But after say 4 tunes I would play the stuff that I wanted to. Once I got round to playing my true style then i would know where i wanted to go with my set already. Maybe i'm wrong but its just a different opinion

Originally posted by DJ Dinz I believe all the DJ in this world always manage their list before they go up stage... even Tiesto does it before i guess... I mean like... the 1st song and to the closing song...

I highly doubt Tiesto plans any of his sets. Like MichaelBoogerd! mentioned above.. I'm sure Tiesto has certain mixes that he knows go well with each other and chooses to mix those tunes together each and everytime he plays them. However, I know for a fact that he doesn't plan out his entire playlist like you've done above. The reason I know is because it is not uncommon for him to spin a six hour set. It would be impossible to memorize the tracklisting of over seventy songs.

But the most important part is being spontaneous. Without reading the crowd you will never make it as a good dj. You need to feed off your audience in order to pick your next track. Tiesto is so damn popular that he could play just about anything and still be praised as an awesome dj. But for beginners, like you and me, it is imperative to read the crowd and adjust your set to the needs of your audience.

Wow... n Ok i really get what u guys mean

THNX! Maybe i would plan for the 1st to 4th song after that go with the flow...

But I would like to change the topic now

DO YOU MANAGE UR DEMO DISC??
I want to give demo to some clubs...
So must i manage it or just go with what i want to put in after this and that??????

Sorry for Asking and asking, because a DEMO sets there will be no crowd to read...

THNX guys

some people would, and it is something you can get away with. my personal preference is to not plan any set, so when i do a demo i just do it straight off. i'm not the most succesful dj in the world () but i have sent demo's out twice, and got 3 gigs from them.. so it works for me

presentation is also very important with demo's.. make a decent looking cover and print a tracklist, it will make your cd stand out a bit from others
