if you were given a chance to dj...
 

what would your tracklist be, regardless of your favourite genre ( althought do specify it )...
give it some thought ( i know i am, i think it's every true music fan's biggest dream ), and fire away...;)
bare in mind your setlist has to last at least a couple of hours...

I'll probably be a local dj in the future, actually. I have a playlist at http://ace-storage.web1000.com/playlist.htm
I'm missing a few things due to some being borrowed, and some I haven't added.

EDIT: It wouldn't be in that order. But that would be alot of the main bands being played anyway.

This looks so much longer in Word. Well it's like 3 hours worth of music.

o.0 that had 6 good ones! =P

hm...so that's mostly a downer song list?

Me? If so that's what a normal day of me listening to music is.

don't get me wrong, i noticed some pretty cool bands there, i like your taste, but that's just one possibility....i mean, you DO listen to other types of music right? i, for example would have lists like, indie, dance, rock, downers, uppers...and the shizz...you dig? mostly thought, i dream of dj-ing at a disco or party and rocking their world with indie dance....:D

I'm just in an indie mood I suppose so I put mostly indie bands with screamo and some other stuff shoved in the middle. Which is how I listen to music, I listen a genre with random other stuff.

dj shadows discography.

We agree.

A couple of hours? WTF DJs do you know?!

I do DJ sometimes, mostly at house parties and sometimes at actual clubs (if you know promoters it's really easy to DJ at parties). This was actually a mix that I made earlier today on my iPod, so the tracklist itself is probably in a really ****ty order and I didn't put much thought into it...

"We Are Rockstars" - Does It Offend You, Yeah?
"Bodywork" - MSTRKRFT
"By the Time I Get to Venus" - The Juan Maclean
"One Minute to Midnight" - Justice
"Over & Over" - Hot Chip
"Follow My Ruin" - Royksopp
"You Are My Sun" - Vitalic
"Hearbeats" - The Knife
"Dancingbox" - Modeselektor
"Musclor" - Para One
"Walking Machine (SebastiAn Remix)" - Revl9n
"Element of Danger (MSTRKRFT Remix)" - Services
"Balearica" - Headman
"Gravity's Rainbow (Nightmoves Mix" - Klaxons
"3 Weeks" - Tiga
"Keep On Waiting" - DJ Hell
"Toop Toop" - Cassius
"I Am Somebody" - DJ Mehdi
"Ready to Uff" - Uffie

Pretty much Electro all the way through. I've been listening to a lot of Dubstep and Breakcore lately, but none of it really made it on. If this were a real set I'd probably throw in some more of that. Maybe some mellower stuff as well, "Most of All" by Morgan Geist would definitely make it in. Some more Kompakt Records releases, too.
