Thanks for you replys 🙂 this is what I take from them,tell me id i’m right or wrong about anything, so the 1st hour you suggest playing a mixture of genres but low energy etc. Do you mean literaly the 1st hour before the suprise wen i’ll just be playing background music or the 1st hour when he arrives & the party officialy starts?
Instead of strictly playing 1 star the 1sr hour , 2tar the 2nd hour etc, you both think i should progressively increase the energy but within each hour go up or down a bit energy/tempo wise? So for eg 2nd hour play 2 & 3 stars going up or down within the hour,3rd hour play 3 or 4 stars going up or down in the hour?
I know from Phil not to be meticalous about planning so i’m trying to get the balance, i practised yesterday & it’s fun looking what will go with the track playing but my organistaion helps me limit it down to a set hour rather than searching through 12 hours worth of music in 1 playlist. I know number 1 rule is to play what the crowd wants though, not just what mixes well so i’ll make sure i’m not to consumed in my mixing. Thanks
