DJ'ing


Recommended Posts

I was asked to DJ at a girls 21st birthday party, and I do not do DJ'ing, but I have a massive sound system that I play through the pc tho, but I dont know what songs I would play for an event like that, and I am asking her no money cause then she would expect DJ'ing quality services, which I can not do.

What would you like to hear at a 21st Birthday party? (Party Songs)

Tubthumping??? *cringes*

well, at least she knows not to expect a good dj, if u misled her I'd be forced to beat you.

just find a few songs u wanna play (not just "party" songs, people want a mix of speeds and sometimes (usually) styles). People will request songs from you throughout the night, just play what u can and they'll be mostly happy

my suggestion would be to find out who's going 1st, I.E. is it just gonna be a bunch of 21 yr old girls or are there gonna be lads too? is there going to be family there, i.e. old peeps or just the youngsters?

if it's an all-rounder then as well as the more up to date music (tubthumping???) you'll want some older ones, but older tunes that all generations can relate to not too old and boring for the youngsters but not to hip for the crooners. You can't go wrong with ye olde party tunes towards the end of the night when everyones had more than a few bevvies ;)

Try looking on net for albums like "best party album in the world ever" and find out the tracks on them, from what you've said i'm guessing you're not DJing on decks, i.e. with vynil.

but until you know who's going it's gonna be a bit difficult to decide on the tunes.

Um, shouldn't you be asking the girl who's party it is? I mean she may REALLY be into RnB or such, and you play dance all night.
