i forgot that they said it was for hip hop dj.

but theres some new good rock, just have to really look for it, however i agree, overall it is pretty terrible

i was just thinking that there are a few songs from the 90s & 00s that would fit the bill but then again what hip hop djs are really playing rock anyway.

guess im going in circles, back to rock

Yes there are more recent gems.

The Darkness - I Believe in a Thing Called Love
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll
Neon Trees - Animal

And a bunch of others. I not a fan of a lot of the current indie/rock stuff though. Although i do like

Portugal The Man - Feel It Still
Revivalists - Wish I Knew You

Eh depends, I'd be inclined to agree but when you consider somewhat modern bands like arctic monkeys, queens of the Stone Age, and arcade fire (Thomas Bangalter produced their most recent) there's some cool stuff going on. The main problem is the audience stopped considering rock dance music, and it is. Time to re educate em.

I don't really consider indie rock to be rock - it's kinda become it's own thing and sound now.

I do like that portugal the man song.

Any Volbeat is pretty decent new rock. I like it at least and have played some at weddings.

i think there is some 90s and 00s rock that could work if a young up and coming dj could put it together ala dj AM (RIP) or z trip.

i'd think you'd almost have to include indie rock because its not really indie anymore and its kinda synonmous with rock ahead of electronic

y'all are still missing alot of stuff that came out over the last 10-12 yrs though.

The other thing is that in the 90s there were dance clubs that played alternative rock music. House/rap/pop djs could go to these clubs and get a feel for what ppl danced to. DJing alternative is kind of its own thing. Open format djs play only classic rock at best, and that's missing out on a ton of great stuff.

Loving the feedback and the discussion. Giving me good ideas on songs and making me listen to some new stuff as well.

yea, there's always good stuff if you dig for it - I'm referring more to the mainstream stuff.

Hi , I am new at djing and I listen to rock , metal (all genres of them ) and psy/trance/goa . So I don't want to play any other genres , Is there any dj that plays rock and metal that can give me some advice , thanks .

Barbangerz.com has a great selection of rock tunes like classic rock, grunge 90's rock, current hits.

Thank you a lot . :)

I heard jazzy Jeff drop the first verse to ice ice baby a capella over the opening to queen & bowie - under pressure and have since been replicating it to big reactions.

Other faves that work in a hip hop set:
Red hot chilli peppers - by the way
Acdc - back in black
Joan jet - I love rock n roll (*copy djam and put "hip hop" in place of rock n roll)
Chubby checker the twist (mixes awesome with Jay z hard knock life)
Blur - song 2
Gary glitter - rock n roll part 2

John cougar Mellen camp - jack and dine
