what kind of music would you spin at weddings? ps. it doesn't look 'cool' when you bob your head up and down, head cocked to the right or left holding your headphones. it just ain't cool at weddings unless the bride and groom and hipsters. other than that weddings would be fun to play at. |

Zaphod: you could have used that sound as an instument. wrecking your equipment at selected intervols would be a grand idea. |

we blew the speakers and everything was bad when we djed no one danced. they were like wtf yo and there was a shitty setup, and shitty lights, and shitty people bah |

it would be grand had it been my equipment, instead it ended up costing a grand. tee-hee. |

i have djed two local dances, an after football game dance... my head nearly exploded from all of the mainstream rap, hip/hop, pop i had to play. i slip some classic big beat (the most user friendly of electronic) and the 'gansta' kids hate it. they also hate underground hip/hop... blackalicious, latyrx, prefuse, aesop rock, anti pop... etc. |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
something like... 'damn boy, when you gonna play some good music' then she did the whole hand diss thing. I wanted to play venetian snares the rest of the night, but i ended up playing Nelly & Kelly to keep the masses happy. if anyone knows how i can get my soul back please let me know... |

i've kept a bit of integrity. this dance ends at midnight, so each time, regardless of what's playing... at midnight i play DJ Shadow - Midnight in a Perfect World I think it's the perfect ending song. |
||||||||
|

thats cool :) |

||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
songs that i would like to play at a dance: venetian snares - befriend a childkiller venetian snares - we hate russel venetian snares - clearance bin fuck toronto jngle personal discorse necro - the most sadistic oh, and berry overton ensemble - jesus christ superstar medley |

a friend of mine dj'ed at a really crappy club. eurotrash dance music mainly. so he played along for most of the night and then he decided to screw em up a bit, ended the set with 54 cymru beats, mt st michel+st michaels mount and ventolin. i wish i had been there for that, cuz i'm sure he cleared out every last person in there. |

greenways trajectory at full blast. now that would be funny. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think ventolin would be an amazing room clearer... and dog killer... and anxiety creator... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, but imagine the ending of cymru beats coupled with the noise barrage of st michel and then ventolin as a closer. i'd like to see if anyone was left. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
if i did that shit, i would make a track just for when shit got ugly. like it would be all generic hip hop and they be like awwwyeah dawg! word! you da man! and then it would quickly morph into a fuckin hardcore vsnares ish shit storm. and then i'd dump pigs blood on everyone |
