What RATM track, out of interest? I've been thinking about playing stuff by them and other similar groups in sets, but I'm not sure how good it would sound.

The more genres you use, the more interesting the set is. As you keep playing different stuff, they never know what's next. More genres mean more variety, and the more variety, the less of a chance there is that the listener will get bored. It's true that if done badly it can suck, but done well it makes for a much better set than it would be if you were a wuss and stuck to one genre. Trance is easy to mix anyway.

well said.
