KEEPING IT FRESH IN THE CLUB (dj related)
- Thread starter thewaxbandit
- Start date
christ !
i guess i knew the thread would end up like this
i got clonned
so, yes i will post up a set list when i have a minute - and let you guys tear my ass up some more
the reason i said that the thread had been not much help, was because pretty much most of the things suggested i do, i do already to no avail. And yes i've been djing a long time but and i'm always paying attention to whats going on out there, but i'm always trying to here more music and search out things that may i have missed along the line - i don't see a problem with this attitude?
also, when i play other cities and other venues - i get along just fine and can play much more varied/fun sets and always have a great time and get the job done - and often get complimented by the owner and get love from the crowd
its just this one residency in this one venue (which i rely on for ??), which is difficult for me. this really is a redneck kinda city. With only a couple of decent places to drink - but even these places are often full of fucking idiots. For instance at least every other week someone will say (before the girls start dancing) "Why the fuck are you playing n*gger music? Do you see any fucking n*ggers in here mate?" - at which point i often ask the security who are black to escort them from the venue. Just an example of the kind of people i often have to deal with - any UK strutters maybe aware of a program called "The Only Way is Essex"? - its not that far off.
You can only really keep a dancefloor by playing obvious music, but the venue doesn't want me playing Lady Gaga and David Guetta. Its not just a problem for me either, the guys who dj the indie/rock night the night after me also have the same problem (they just don't get the racists hassling them!). They get stuck in a rut too. But they are just happy to take a pay cheque from it.
I sincerely promise you all that this weekend i am going to make a concerted effort to switch it the fuck up, and will report back ASAP.
peace

you'll be glad to know that tonight i switched it up AND STILL FUCKING MURDERED IT
i still had to keep it pretty obvious but it worked well
and i had a few fuckups but held it together (i don't get time to practice at home so did it all on the fly, in the club)
and i had fun
so i guess you all helped, even the ones who were pricks all the way through the thread
thank you Soulstrut
