Here is the general formula that I have found to suit my needs. 1st - intro (something minimul, maybe a vocal track with low energy), 2nd/3rd fillers building on the first two(minimul but getting more progressive), 4th/5th/6th transition records building off 2nd and 3rd (something from all parts of your style to establish a theme for me: deep/techy/dark-psy), 7th Special Rmx to get the crowd involved (classic rock rmx/ or main stream trance), 8th-12th full on assault on the brain, 13th bring it down a notch, final record epic.

When you buy records keep in mind where they would be in the formula. Don't buy records just because everyone else spins them. If you don't have a feel for them as a Dj they won't do you any good.

Hope this helps..PEACE! -PsyberNeo

on a high is good for the start of a set or the end of a proggy style set. look at my discogs collection user name billabong to get an idea of how diverse you want your collection to be.
