Opening Hours Prog House & Trance/Tech House/Minimal/Acid House/etc. Suggestions... ?
View this Thread in Original format
DJ RJT
Long story short; I have a fairly important gig at a club I've been waiting to play at a long time coming up in a couple months and I'm just trying to brainstorm some tune suggestions. My slot is a roughly 10-11:30 or so, opening timeslot, so I figure I'm going to play a pretty chill prog set or something of the like.

I put together a list of "classics," or just older tunes I haven't played in a while, that I am thinking about having around to drop, and thought I'd post it and see if anyone has any other possible suggestions (class or new) for me. Here's the list:

Tiebreaker - Prominence (Steve May's Doing it for the Digital Slut Remix)
Petter - Tone Diary
UNKLE / Petter - These Days / What you are to me (Sasha's Involver Mashup)
Steve Porter - Electric Jelly
Bombdogs - I Can't Explain
Gil Norris - Forme
Starkid - Crayons
Seyton - The Drake Equation
Funk D'Void - All That Matters

Note, I have no intention of playing all of those tunes, they're just tunes I haven't really worked in a while that I thought might be fun. Any current or classic tunes that you guys can suggest after having read that list would be great...

Thanks!

i dont think bombdogs will work for opening.. i dunno to me that sounds like a terrace choon... for early morning.

good luck with it though, iv always wondered if i could open for someone.. probably not lol

even thoguh i just recorded a set and kept it from 124 to 127.. i guess thast opening materia... the songs arent banging banging.. just tribalicious!

Yeah, you may be right on that one. We'll see...

One other thing I'd like to mention is that it'd be preferable if the tunes you guys recommend are available somewhere for easy purchase, or otherwise easily attainable. Suggesting tunes I can't get my hands probably won't help much ;)

depeche mode - lilian (chab dub) / (pantha du prince neues holz remix) / (robag wruhme kräzy fückking döb)
unkle - burn my shadow (dan f remix)
unkle - i need something stronger (dan f remix)

Some tunes that wont set the place on fire but still are very danceable.

Nice! Killer suggestions!

Rob, what are the djs playing following you? When I played at Basic a while back I was opening for djs that pretty much play the same exact sound that I do, THAT was tough :p. I pretty much had to improv a deep house/minimal set lol. If your opening for trance djs or that electroey sounding stuff, then you really have alot of freedom with your sound.

Good luck man

I'm so dropping Solar Stone - Day By Day (Red Jerry Mix) at the end of my opening slot at the end of the month. It leads into the next dj's music well (he's proggy/electro).

That series of tracks on the Oakenfold GU is so mint. I'd be tempted to throw in Lustral - Everytime (Nalin & Kane Mix) and Miro - Paradise in there for good measure as well. Just cause.
