What genre do you play?

thebuttonfreak 9:40 PM - 2 April, 2010
I play a blend of house, techno, tech-house, breaks, indie and nu disco...with elements of uk garage and bassline.

I also play str8 dnb when I can. I played that for like 7 years and still have my little toe in the sound.

How about you guys?

I don't want to thread jack, but how many of u guys mix in house with electro and top-40s and club Dance music ?
HandsomeRobDJ 9:41 PM - 16 January, 2012
str8nger you confuse me all the time. I think the answer is: I mix house/electro club-style remixes of Top 40 songs all the time. That's really my favorite. But to restate my last post in here "The one that pays the most that day". I play MY favorite stuff at home in my house. If I'm at a paying gig I play whatever they're paying me to play. At my last wedding I played Barbra Streisand (the singer, not the Duck Sauce song) and organized a family dance to that Elton John Disney Lion King song. It was painful but the paycheck made it all better : )
