It’s better to get the extended version this way you have the option to cut the song short; it all can very tho on what genera your mixing…
“Techno”
If you DJ techno you can do so much with it, I’m not talking about house/progressive house/trance maybe “tech trance” haha but I’m really referring to “techno” it’s self not big room electro but “techno” many define techno as the universal genres of edm; but anyways techno gives the option to mix at your own desire the thing with vocal tracks, u can’t just cut the song when in between the vocals of a track. Even with melodies u can just stop the melodies in between. the thing with techno is that it’s all big bass groovy music. So ur always dropping one beasty track after another the point is to not play the whole track but to give I time to feel within in the crowd; this is why I don’t use headphones. This way I hear what the crowd hears I feel what the crowd feels, but anyways techno, in this case the majority don’t have vocals but member your a DJ, acappellas can always fill in the break downs or even a meaningful speech with your desire to give the tracks “soul” an “feel” to your mix. If your looking to drop a banger with a melody or vocals go for it. I usually don’t touch theses tracks; by the means of that is when the song is playing no effects, no mixing, no mash ups. These are the feel good tracks they don’t need to be played with just make sure your transitions are always as seem less as they can be. when the track is finishing go back to that groovy “techno”. This is where the real art in djing is at those who play techno understand the art Of djing..
I play trance, dubstep, progressive, deep house, but I mainly stick with “techno” every other genre is just spice my mix up every 10 to 15 mins all depends tho.. Good luck practice is everything 🙂
