When in doubt... Motown it
x2
they want turntable action, northern soul, 80s, james bond, disco. normally spend half the time trying to work out who to leave in charge of the decks when you have to go for a piss!
you can take the temptations' 'papa was a rolling stone' (11'45) with you for that.
edit: don't forget to bring some tunes for the old people, depending on the demographic beach boys or fats domino will maybe do.
EMF-Unbelievable
Chubby Checker - The Twist
make sure to eat whatever food is offered, usually it looks OK but is bland, eat it anyway, youre gonna be there a long time my friend.
How was the bridemaids?
Play some heavy metal aswell.
learnt a few things from that gig.
dancefloor filler of the night - Chaka Khan - 'Ain't Nobody'
bridesmaids were too young but plenty of semi-milfs bumping about the place.
what's a semi-milf? a m you'd like to semi f or a semi m (whatever that would be) you'd like to f?
couldn't quite tell how old they were. deffo all single and horny though.
Chakkkakakakakakakakakaakaaaa Chaka Chaka Khan
couldn't quite tell how old they were. deffo all single and horny though.
and? did you end up with a single horny milff date?
mmmm, milfs
here we have a " wedding moderator " ...the mic guy...who's coordonating all action there...( sometimes they can be so hilarious )
here the bride is stolen...by the unmarried men
and weddings took place even in the streets
aww man I missed this one!
for my city and surrounding areas the line dance music is always the burner shit!
ex. the bunny hop(new orleans rap song)
the freeze (classic rock favorite)
brown eyed girl - van morrison
cha cha slide
the cupid shuffle
vanilla ice; anything uptempo from the thriller album; kc and sunshine band; 80s pop r&b stuff; bell biv devoe - do me or poison; some country like brooks and dunn/ david allen coe;
I would just bring all the stuff I wouldnt play anywhere else. It helps to bring a laptop with big hard drive so you can do request.
One time me and my boy did it at a place that had wifi and we were able to just download stuff that people wanted!
that was a fucking blast because it felt like everbody was dancing the whole time. As long as the brides family and friends are dancing your made!
i do this kind of job pretty often.
it depends of course from the age of the guests.
normally some 80ies and 70ies CD compilations will please all guests.
dont forget some indie / rock hits for the time when all male guests are drunken
this are must haves:
SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT / nirvana
PRETTY FLY / offspring
TNT / acdc
TWO PRINCESS / spin doctors
WANNA BE MY GIRL / jet
dont forget these artists:
FATBOY SLIM / PRODIGY / CHEMICAL BROS / JAMIROQUAI
dont forget some house classics:
DEE LITE / SAHOME DI BAHIA / FINALLY / LADY / MOVIN ON UP
these oldschool tunes are always a good idea:
COPA COPANA / ITS NOT UNUSUAL (tom jones) / TEQUILA (not the bo boss version) / LETS TWIST AGAIN / STAND BY ME
ask for more if you like
ITS NOT UNUSUAL (tom jones)
yes! and [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKSxlJPmz40[/youtube]
on the videowall behind the dj to make things complete..
I'm getting married 18 July this summer ... i've asked some guys who generally play allround (quality) stuff (e.g. Gaye, Mayfield, Wonder, Ayers, Beach Boys, Prince, Parliament, Lidell, Wu Tang, etc...) and after that I will improvise with one or two friends and take things to the next level
dont forget some house classics:
DEE LITE / SAHOME DI BAHIA / FINALLY / LADY / MOVIN ON UP
oe.. my gf is in for that stuff.. don't forget I LIKE TO MOVE IT :-)
at peaktime people are loving uptempo tracks.
good choice:
WHAM: wake me up (a sure killer for every aged crowd - even 18 years old are flipping out)
KATHARINA AND WAVES: walking on sunshine
POINTER SISTERS: im so exited
are there germans?
NENA. nur getr
I have to do the music on a wedding soon too and found this: http://www.wedalert.com/songs/
Think it's nice for some inspiration what to download

my bird was there!

as i said: it all depends on the audience...
i dont know which crowd you are expecting to this wedding.
i can only speak from my experience - i am doing such events and many commercial events for company dates / office parties for years now ... sometimes for more or less big money ...
and at the end most of these dates are all the same ...
one thing i forgot:
nowadays there are a million wannabe DJs with 10000000 itunes on a laptop.
but they dont have a glue what to play in the right moment.
thats the reason why people are still booking me for weddings
i have just one CD map but with all important tracks
and when it comes to a "serious" gig i come with my records
what tends to be your last wedding tune?
don't forget this one
The Tams be young be foolish be happy, my closer.

what tends to be your last wedding tune?
all depends on who is still dancin'
