@djrizki, Haha, I play to Aussies, and no, I don’t play much EDM. The crowds I play to are incredibly varied, being mobile and all, however, EDM just isn’t something my crowds want to hear much of. They’d much rather sing along to The Angels than to some EDM bangers. It’s not so much me asking what others play to try and get ideas, it’s more a general post to have a chat about specific songs you find that work, no matter the scene.
Every crowd is different, and every gig is different, however, I was talking to a DJ that I’m training for my company, and pointed out that no matter what the gig, and no matter what the age group, there are just some songs out there that you can play and everyone will sing along. You can even cut the music in songs like 500 Miles (The Proclaimers) and Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again (The Angels) because there’s unofficial choruses that everyone knows and will yell it out if you prompt them to. So I was curious to see if others out there had songs they knew would always work.
