When it comes to selecting music for a gig, there are a few things to keep in mind.
First, consider the type of event and the audience you will be playing for. If it's a wedding, for example, you may want to include a mix of popular and classic love songs, as well as upbeat dance tracks. If it's a club night, you may want to focus on current hits in the genre(s) the club caters to.
Second, think about the vibe you want to create. Do you want to keep the energy high throughout the night, or do you want to build to a climax? Do you want to mix in some slower, more mellow tracks to give people a chance to catch their breath?
Third, it's important to have a diverse selection of music. Include a mix of old and new tracks, different genres, and different tempos. This will keep things interesting and cater to a wider audience.
Finally, don't be afraid to take requests from the audience, but be selective about which requests you fulfill. If a song doesn't fit the overall vibe you're trying to create, politely decline and suggest another track that would work better.
Ultimately, the music you play at a gig will depend on the specific event and audience, so it's important to be flexible and adaptable as a DJ.
