Need an Extra Set tracklisting....need help ASAP!! Posted on: 05.07.2012 by Foster Zien hey guys...i have my first gig at a famous local club and i have spent months getting it. I dont have my own gear so i am using the club owned turntables. i am a complete newb/ beginner and i have been a bedroom DJ till now. I only play trance and progressive house & sometimes minimal. i have prepared 2 sets (1 hour each) for my gig. but now i have started to freak out that the people may not like my music. so i have decided to keep an extra set..just in case. so i need someone to suggest a decent track listing for my set (130 - 140 BPM). I need this a lot guys.. Please help me!!!!

Foster Zien 06.07.2012	Originally Posted by Xonetacular You sure it's a smart idea to go after and take a big club gig if you don't really know what you're doing? What have you been DJing on until now? i have no problems with mixing ....i spend most of my time doing compilations and mash ups
Foster Zien 06.07.2012	Originally Posted by Jester.NZ Don't take this the wrong way mate but i believe you may have bitten off more than you can chew. best of luck to you yea i believe i did that..but i was able to swallow everything successfully & no stomach problems
Foster Zien 06.07.2012	Originally Posted by Hoodless EDIT: nvm the bot copied another post i didnt see, Yeah, find out what they play there, if youve spent months getting this you should surely know whats played in there? Did you give the promoters mixtapes/etc? just play what your normally play, but i do believe youve shot yourself in the foot. Bedroom DJ with no live skills going into a big club? lol. didnt send a mixtape or anything.... the manager knew i was interested in this so he was inclined to give me a shot. He was also willing wo take the risk...dnt know what made him do that
Foster Zien 06.07.2012	Originally Posted by Aldo Hey i just say congratulation and goodluck. Dont listen to anybody that try to put you down.. You got your chance and dont forget to bring alot of friendS and have fun thanks...it was a success i dont know whats worse...the fact that i joined this community to get some help..or people discouraging me
Foster Zien 06.07.2012	Originally Posted by JasonBay Yeah, seems to far fetched to be true. And if it is? Then he's fucked himself. Landing a gig at one of the bigger clubs in the city, and not even being able to mix or read a crowd? Good way not to get any more DJ gigs didnt fuck up mate .. everything was cool....to be honest 5 Tequila shots did most of the work.
Ethel Feigum 08.07.2012	Congrats on the successful gig and welcome to DJTT! I apologize for the negativity, Sounds like you have a decent base of skills, and we all have to start somewhere. The op did sound a bit noobish, maybe, we do see a fair amount of posts from guys who have only started learning for a few months and are trying to get club gigs long before they're ready. Glad to hear that you were ready for your chance at the club! Now you've popped your gig cherry you should feel much more confident next time.
Antonetta Wikel 08.07.2012	I believe it's the asking for a complete set/track listing the day before a gig that's a bit unprofessional but that's just my professional opinion. My amateur opinion is totally different though.

Foster Zien 06.07.2012	guys i said i need new gear.. the one which i already have is damn old...and anyways my gig is over...i wont say it was a major success but i had a blast (didnt goof up anywhere ). here's the track list. Chaz illegal drum intro Orjan Nilsen - Between the rays (Original Mix Edit) Omnia & IRA - The Fusion (Armin Van Buuren's Intro Edit) W & W - Invasion (Chaz Mumbai Traffic intro Edit) Orjan Nilsen - Magic Orjan Nilsen - Amsterdam Armin Van Buuren Presents Gaia - J'ai envie de toi Armin Van Buuren & DJ Shah (Feat. Chris Jones) - Going wrong (Sean Tyas remix) Mark Otten - Hyperfocus (Wezz Devall Remix) (Chaz Edit) MaRLo - Megalodon M 3-ox (Feat. Heidrun) - Beating Of my heart (Mattisse & Sadko Remix) Ferry Corsten - Check It Out Avicii Vs. Edward Maya (Feat. Vika Jigulina) - Stereo Levels (Chaz Mash up) Dash Berlin & Above & Beyond (Feat. Emma Hewitt, Jonathan Mendolsohn & Richard Bedford) - Better Half Of Waiting To Disarm Your Sun & Moon (Chaz Lover's Cry Power mix - Outro Mix) Not All tracks were in the same key...so used breakdowns for transitions... my intro was damn long (around 4 mins) this helped me to relax a bit.

Cole Maroto 05.07.2012	Originally Posted by drrrracula Yeah, I would plan the first few songs (maybe 2 or 3) and then just go from there. When I first got Traktor I imported my whole music library into it, but since then i've deleted everything and I only add tracks that I believe I will use. This has brought it down to about 100 tracks instead of 1000+ and has made it much easier for me to learn my music and shit. Thought that might help. oh man, my narrowed down selections are 1000+ tracks from 30,000+ (that doesn't even take my vinyl library into consideration). i believe i have too much music and like too many genres...ah who am i kidding, i can never have too much music.

Glynis Mangona 05.07.2012	congrats on your first gig these are pretty fundamental dj things (being able to read and play to a crowd, and selecting tunes). it might be worthwhile to seek out some mentoring from an experienced dj. and maybe even see if a friend (preferrably with some experience) can partner with you/back you up on this gig. good luck!
Romelia Stankard 05.07.2012	Originally Posted by chaz119 thanks for the suggestions guys.. i am also planning to get some gear of my own. I am new to this...so any suggestions as to what turntables and mixer should i get? You sure it's a smart idea to go after and take a big club gig if you don't really know what you're doing?

Alexandra Nerby 05.07.2012	Originally Posted by chaz119 i have been a bedroom DJ till now. I only play trance and progressive house & sometimes minimal. I thought you said you have our own bedroom gear? If you are freaking out this much about it, perhaps you are not ready to go live. If you spent months getting this gig, I would assume you did your homework on what is played there. So play that.
Foster Zien 05.07.2012	thanks for the suggestions guys.. i am also planning to get some gear of my own. I am new to this...so any suggestions as to what turntables and mixer should i get?
Foster Zien 05.07.2012	Originally Posted by Louie_V Welcome to for community s buddy. Get on beatport. Find some charts, follow some artist, start your research. I doubt too many people are just going to hand you a tracklist. Good luck though. i have already tried Beatport..i have also downloaded 7 Beatport DJ packs which include - house, progressive house, soulful house, deep house, minimal etc...but i didnt get anything...i dont wanna get booed on my first gig. This means a lot to me.
Neal Brazzle 05.07.2012	Yeah, I would plan the first few songs (maybe 2 or 3) and then just go from there.

Ulysses Vittetoe 05.07.2012	You can't really prepare a specific setlist for a situation like that because you have no idea how the crowd will react to your choice of music. Your best bet is to be really familiar with your genres of choice and be able to pick out the right tunes based on how the evening is going.
