what kind of music do you play at a cafe 7 p.m in the evening? i'm doing exactly that in about...well 7 pm. it's just for half an hour, but should i cram in as many tracks as possible, and/or just stick to one genre? |

see what the crowd can take they wont be listening anyway i was at a party yesterday and there was a grand piano, so i start playing and this guy introduces me, and after 5 seconds of playing everybody starts talking even louder than before! had probably to do with the fact that i'd been practising for 1/2 an hour already. so i played that one track, i only have, like 40 times, with some variation, people said they did like it afterwards so: i dont know |

hehe.. some kruder 'n dorfmeister? trip hop shop? funky porcini? open your set with fuck dub by tosca:) or something, i dunno, you wanna do something electroish, loungy? |
||||||||

Hmm 7pm is a bit early for Evil rave IMO... I'm with Fly Agaric- some more loungey laid back stuff. Loads of Ninja Tunes stuff would be appropriate, also "Ithinkbothunderstood" by Neutrino(mp3s freely downloadable from the mush records site). What is going to be played by the main DJ/act? |

pump up the jam - technotronic |
||||||||
|

it's called "bring your own records evening". it'll be about 30 dj's...and i got the worst timeslot of them all. |

Hmm, an open deck night, eh? Well screw all ideas of continuity then, people will be playing all sorts. Play whatever you like- if you're not actually "warming up" for someone you've no obligation to play something to gradually get the crowd in the mood for the following acts. In that situation I'd do a late 80s/early 90s techon set just because it's unlikely anyone else would, but people would still probably like it. |

Check out the Macross Plus soundtrack. Disc 2 if you can get it. Lots of really good coffee tunes. |

i'd suggest something that would get peoples heads nodding a bit and getting their feet tapping....i wouldnt blast them out with LFO and Amen Andrews too early on as well. Try and build it up a bit rather than playing random tunes...i'd suggest kicking it a bit slow and maybe playing some hip-hoppish kinda stuff firstly...perhaps some prefuse 73, RJD2, Madlib, NoW, BoC and Four-Tet... break em in gently... then you should start to break out and get a bit more uptempo slowly.... just a suggestion...... :) hope yer gig goes well. |
