How to Pack a Dance FLoor - Entertainment - Music

<p>Hand picking music at an avent is not something that should be overwhelmingly problematic, or come naturally after years of practice, yet this is process most Disc Jockeys fight with. Millions of songs have been written which can be played at an event, so picking 'the' right song seems like an impossoible job. The following music hints will help a dj the next tim they find themselves in a bind and cannot think of a song to play.</p>

<p>Scan the guests in the venue and try to pick up as much information about them as possible, are they older, younger, drinking, reserved, etc. For example, if I see girls dancing/grinding to "Brick House" by the Commodores, I think my next song could be "Lean Back" by Terror Squad or "Back That Thang Up" By Juvenile. Playing electronis music for an older crowd is probably not the best idea, ad music from a more approriate era should be chosen. Choosing music from a decade or era more suited for that age group is much better,</p>

<p>Always cater to the ladies. Girls usually test the waters first on the dance floor and will encourage their male counterparts to come join. Keeping the ladies content throughout the night will ensure a successful night for any deejay. Usually any Lady Gaga such as "Marry the Night" or "Just Dance" will keep any wild group of female on the dance floor. </p>

<p>An elite group of about fifty songs can be played regardless of what the party is looking like when previous attempts to fill the dancing area fail. Every Emcee needs to construct their own personal compilation of these types of songs. I understand, these songs are very popular and pehaps overplayed, but that isnt necessarily a bad thing. "September" by Earth Wind and Fire is great at a wedding along with "Old Time Rock and Roll by "Bob Segar." At a club or rowdy bar, "Party Rock Anthem and Shots" by LMFAO or "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull and Neyo also put feet on the floor.</p>

<p>reading a dance floor can be tough and will become easier with practice, but it really shouldn't be too hard. A different technique is I try to imagine I am dancing myself, and then I select the next song due to the pulse of the dance floor. Don't stck to only one tyoe of music or era, becasue this can make the dance floor stale and people will get bored and eventually leave. A Disc Jockey can play a few songs from the 60's then jump to the 70's instead of being glued to the 60's. </p>
