If I were a DJ for a 90-minute set

Maybe you should just drop your own list so we can decide whether to praise you or tear you apart??
ajd don't be lazy...

Personally, I’ll stick to one hit after another—if anyone has a problem with that, they can head over to some trendy hipster lounge in downtown Chicago to listen to repetitive dance beats 🙄 or maybe find an old-school classic rock station for a healthy dose of good old hard rock 🙄

👋 🙂 🙂 🙂

And no, I wasn't born to be a DJ 🙂

Well, you certainly said it!

First thing I'd do is put on "Waiting for my man" by Velvet Underground.
So, what's the deal? Fifteen minutes and absolutely nothing has happened. Seriously.
I'm just looking to drop "Pixies" - "Gouge away."
Honestly, I’d probably just let some bouncers loose in the hall to let everyone know the party is officially over. Maybe then people would actually think twice before showing up to dance to some anonymous DJ who nobody has even heard of. 😁

Then—total silence for about 15 minutes. Just dead air.
After that? I’d drop "Pixies - Pixies" on them.
And then—getta crowd of security guards to march into the hall to let everyone know the party is officially over. That'll teach people to think twice before showing up to some random anonymous DJ set! 😁

Seriously though, if you throw some trippy visuals on the video beam, you’ve basically got a masterpiece on your hands!!

If it were me, I’d play...
... Bohemian Like You by Dandy Warhol
Thumbthumping by Chumbawamba
Loneliness by Timo Maas
Hey Boy Hey Girl by Underworld & Chemical Brothers
Song 2 by Blur
Let's Go Crazy by Prince... just kidding, guys!
Ring My Bell by some disco diva
Heart of Glass
Daddy Cool
Twist and Shout
Something by Sean Paul...
Ray of Light by Madonna
Groove Is in the Heart by Deee-Lite
That one naughty song from Dusk Till Dawn
Last Night by The Strokes—just because it’s a total classic
Something by Boy George
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper
Mala Vida by Manu Chao
Sky by Sonique
Indigo by Moloko
Anything by The Cure
Blue Monday by New Order
Beautiful Stranger by Madonna
One Step Beyond by Madness
A Little Less Conversation by Elvis
Naughty Girl by Beyoncé

Totally cheesy, the absolute cheesiest—I admit it!! Cheesy music for a cheesy party.

Look, if Coachella is meant to be a melting pot for all kinds of people, then that is exactly how it ought to be...

Nah, wait—I’m actually ditching Sonic, Sean Paul (who is honestly just *too* much, though Beyoncé stays forever), and swapping them out for Yeah Yeah Yeahs—anything really! Plus some Lemon Tree, Blister in the Sun, and whatever Iggy Pop track I'm feeling. Yeah. Probably. That's the plan!

+Nina Simone, "My Baby Just Cares for Me"—man, that's the vibe! It’s what you put on when those guys bail to go grab some beers.

+20 days of Underworld & Chemical Brothers... what was I even trying to say... rock the casbah!!! yeah!

+I’m obsessed with "I Wanna Be Adored" by The Stone Roses. Does anyone know how long the track is? Just looking for some chill vibes!!

And am I even built for DJing? 🙂

🙂 🙂 🙂

ajd, count me in for that party! 😁

It’s just Jazzanova - Remixes—that double CD set. That’s really all there is to it. A group hanging out on the beach in the morning until noon would be perfectly happy with that vibe.
For later on—we’re looking at Carl Cox - Live in Crowbar nightclub, followed by Kruder & Dorfmeister.

My apologies for being MIA when you guys were calling my name—I just haven't had much of a chance to hang out on the Forum lately.
Regarding the list, I can certainly rattle off a few tracks from memory that I’d personally love to hear playing, though—given how much work goes into actual mixing and curating a cohesive flow—I simply don't have the bandwidth right now to properly sequence everything... 😢 😢 😢

I can't think of any more at the moment... I suppose this list is getting a bit long-winded and perhaps slightly monotonous for some, but at least I didn't include any psy-trance.

If anyone is interested, feel free to mix it. If I find the inclination, I might just put something together at home and send over a playlist.

It's an awesome track, definitely one of my favorites.

👋 🙂 🙂 🙂

I guess I was born to be a DJ 🙂

It looks like crimsonjackal8 is the only one here who actually knows how to party 🙂. Listen, people, this list is actually better than my suggestion (though only by a hair, granted 😁). When you show up to a party, you want to jump around, not try to look cool dancing to freaking Faithless and Underworld. (Don't get me wrong, that's just for warming up...) I can see myself as that person with the bow in the "rock" smiley face at the end of the list.

The DJ is putting everything on the line:

1. Alternative Rock Hits
2. Alternative Rock Hits
3. Alternative Rock Hits
4. Alternative Rock Hits
5. Alternative Rock Hits
6. Alternative Rock Hits
7. Alternative Rock Hits
8. Alternative Rock Hits
9. Alternative Rock Hits
10. Marilyn Manson
11. Rammstein
12. Siouxsie and the Banshees
13. The Cure
14. Joy Division
15. Bauhaus
16. Sisters of Mercy
17. Laibach
18. Joy Division
19. The Smiths
20. Placebo
21. Siouxsie and the Banshees
22. The Cure
23. Bauhaus
24. Christian Death
25. Joy Division

Let whoever wants to live, live. Mwahahahaha! 👋

Not bad at all for the black block 😁

Harold Davis39, you would have gotten 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍 from me for this list back when I was in high school..

So you were listening to Rammstein back in high school too, Xiola? 😉

Mr. Right said:So, Susan Booth42, were you actually listening to Metallica back in high school? 😉

Come on, kid—I see what you're doing here... 😉 Don't go exposing my teenage years just yet. 🙂 😁

Honestly, I was more into Christian Death from the playlists... Rozz Williams was everything. 😍
