CapFive Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Hey guys,I know I haven't posted in awhile sorry peeps been busy, having a baby and working like a dogA friend of mine has been given creative freedom to organise a Saturday at a certain popular club here on the northern beaches and I was wondering what you think would really do well on a Saturday night, also they are looking to hire a set of CDJ-2000's off anyone they are also looking for DJ'snow please don't let this sway your vote! I need to know seriously what gets requested or what organisers are looking for you guys to play, and if anyone is interested they MAY be looking for DJ's to rotate on this Saturday night1. Don't bother asking me what club unless you are serious about wanting to DJ or hire a set of CDJ-2000's with a decent mixer to them.2. Please again be honest and don't just choose your favourite genre.3. please only serious applications for wanting to DJ, I will need demo's etc... unless you are Dflux or Lloydc Quote
djrhysj Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I voted other, the sets I normally play these days consist of multiple genres including some current radio hits, old school hits like run dmc, some cheesey ass hip hop like nelly ride wit me or dmx, and they normally create a pretty fun mood in the venue with everyone singing along and having a good time.On the other hand you have other venues full of pilled up kids off their guts that just want a sick beat to munt out too. Depends what you guys want in the venue I guess!PS. I would be interested in DJing at this new venue. Quote
Gandy Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 i voted other as well, without knowing what crowd you are expecting commercial club is probably the safest then you might wanna drop into some heavier commercial electro bangers/booties later into the night when everyone is starting to buzz(say from 1am onwards), going to be up to the dj ultimately though what he should be dropping and when to keep the floor, no matter how hard you plan for a night you might get a totally different crowd to what you are expecting, and if the DJ dosent know how to adapt to it you're gonna have a bad time Quote

russell Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 What would the punters attending this club expect to hear? Quote
Mitch Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 What gets played on a saturday at the club currently?also what gets played on the other nights? Quote
mattus123 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 ive gone other aswelli think a combination of commercial and good electro tunes is the way to go.Throwing in the occasional well known dub or dnb track could also go down well, but to make an exclusive night for it could either go awesome, or fail (especially with well established competition from chinese laundry and world bar on wed)... electro and commercial is safer Quote
Tomy Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 electro is always a staple for most clubs around aus. there is a lot of cross genre going on now though with trap which is good to see. keep it interesting. could be keen to pop down if the drive isn't too far Quote
GREMM1S Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Also always keen for gigs im Sydney too, play in the cross regularly same as mattus Quote
