Figuring Out How To Select A DJ For An Incredible Party

By Robert Zacks


If you are throwing a party it is great to hire a professional DJ that can get your guest dancing and having a wonderful time. Having great music and a DJ who knows what to play and how to read the crowd is an important ingredient for memorable party. Here we take a look at how to select a DJ to make your party memorable.

The first consideration when throwing a party is working out which type of music to play. At a wedding reception or family celebration there will be people of all ages. Therefore it may be better to hire a DJ who is experienced with these types of parties and will play classic pop tunes that everyone knows and loves.

If you are going to have a house party for your mates then you will find that there is a lot of choice of music genres. It is probably best to play the kind of music you know your friends like. Up to the minute dance music may be best, such as Dubstep or Progressive House.

It can be quite fun to have a party that plays a specific genre of music, such as reggae or even just 80s pop classics. It may also be fun to have several DJs playing a different genre of music at each set. Maybe culminating in a fast dance music set as guests get more energetic.

A good DJ will be able to judge the kind of music the crowd wants to hear. This is especially important for dance music, as the mood of the crowd can be used to judge the tempo and style of music.

Some DJs care happy to use their laptop and software to play MP3 music files, but many DJs still prefer to use record decks and play records. Many DJs mix their own music and use samples to create new tunes. Many famous Hip Hop DJs take this approach such as DJ Shadow and DJ Vadim.

Often the best choice for a DJ is someone that you have seen before, this way you know that they are going to get the party jumping. But if you haven't it may be worth taking recommendations from friends. A good DJ will ask a lot of questions regarding the party, such as who are the guests, what is the age range and so on. It may also be worth taking a look at the DJs collection of music in order to find out how knowledgeable about music they are. Some DJs may only play the music that they like, but this may not be the same as the guests at the party.

So if you are wondering how to select a DJ following this advice should help. A good DJ is easy to find with a little effort, which is worth taking in order to have that perfect party people will remember. There may also be DJs that have websites so you can contact them that way, and also hear some samples of their sets.
