Is it good technique - in your personal opinion - to play different genres (trance/hardhouse/chillout etc etc) in the one set - or, that you should stick to just one?
for example - starting off with some hard house, thru to trance and finishing it off with a bit of chillout?
call me naive, but you need to learn at some stage..:conf: |

its up to u...but i suggest you find one genre you REALLY like, and focus most of ur attention to it...but if u want to, then dabble in other genres
and if ur talking about diff genres all in one set...go ahead, just try and make nice transitions between genres |

| it's personal choice but u have to consider the flow of the set and mood. IF yourmixing hard house into progressive it wont work. But just do as u want is the best advice. |

I think it's a good idea to mix different styles as long as they aren't way too different & the music still flows good...
I'm gettin' into more techno stuff @ 1st w/ some great trance for the most part & a lil' more chill at the end... |

| that is what bothered me too at first, I did not know which records to buy. I was like well I like some epic trance, but I really like some hard-house, and I love techo. So I said to my self, I will buy an occasional epic trance record, but for the most part I am gonna stick to the Tech-Trance. And now I have my own style and it actually really helps to stick to one thing, but it's always a good idea to mix things up once in a while, to keep the crowd happy! ;) |

| Lately I have been dabbling with tech-house, melodic trance, and harder progressive (tribal usually) and it works out well I think, but others might say no! |

it's possible
but i wouldn't play it unless you're the last dj of the night
i suggest sticking with one genre until you are comfortable with your skill
then you can really start to experiment once you have the basics down pat |
