Pop Party 3

Product Information

Is there an opening act or DJ? Again, this is standard information, but the answer determines more about your playlist than perhaps reading the crowd. If you’re the opener, your set needs to be that: an appetizer. Save the big dance hits for the main DJ. Such servitude will not only garner their praise but may land you more gigs as your “teamwork” reputation spreads. What time do you start and end? Clubs and venues typically use contracts that spell out these details. Weddings and house parties, especially for friends, have more expectations, many of which never get voiced. The key here is never to assume. We all know what happens when we do! This album was compiled in association with: BMG, Def Jam, Interscope, Island, Jive Records, Mercury, Polydor, Sony, UMTV, Virgin, V2

Their request may be what you need. Perhaps the person making the request has insight into what song will ignite the party, so consider it.

What styles of music should you avoid? Certain regions may not respond well to a hit song. Take the United States, for instance. If you’re the DJ for a dance party in Alabama, then “Sweet Home Alabama” would be a good song for your playlist. If you try to spin that in Seattle, chances are no one will dance, plus you may get an earful of expletives! Audience age. This falls into the Captain Obvious category, but you’d be surprised how many DJs miss this observation. If your dance crowd is primarily 20-year-olds, then it’s doubtful they’re interested in hits from the 80s. Conversely, if your crowd has a mixture of ages, like at a wedding, then be prepared to spin hits from several eras.We’ll zero in on the basics of being a DJ and leave topics like radio editing and club mixing for later posts. But of course,the 21st century is a long one, and you've got to make space for the classics too. There arefabulous pop songs from every era, and they all deserve a spot on our ultimate list. Here you'll find everyone from Outkast to MIA, and from Kelis to Harry Styles. The only criteria? It has to be feel good, and it has to make you want to get up and dance. All of these tunes do just that, and then some. Read on for the best pop songs ever made.
