I do 2 nights a week (Wed and Sat) in a lapdancing club playing funky/electro/commercial house (mixed!), RnB/HipHop (also mixed), classic rock (not mixed!) and anything else that takes my fancy!

I also do a Friday at a local nightclub playing RnB/HipHop and UK garage with a couple of electro house tracks (generally with Rap/HipHop acapellas over the top) thrown in for good measure!

You play in a lapdancing club? Nice work!
Let me know if you need any cover :P

I currently do 6 nights a week in Bahrain which is a desert island in the Persian gulf (middle east)
I play a mixture of US hip hop, reggaeton, electro and funky house, a dash of trance and regularly a mixture of of RnB and dance club classics.

Tell ya what, I'll swap you for a bit then! :D

Its weird really, I can get away with playing brand new stuff in a lapdancing club that I can't get away with playing elsewhere (which, believe it or not, often has the punters up dancing too. Looks kinda weird in a lapdancing club but as long as they are having a good time and putting money over the bar the boss doesn't seem to mind)...

I work in those kind of areas where people will, 9 times out of 10, stop dancing if they hear something new, simply because they've never heard it before! Not until some tracks have already been hammered to death on the radio or TV music channels will they entertain the idea of actually dancing to it!! There are the odd exceptions though, like at the moment:
  • Sheriff Phatman - Hey Camon [Extended Mix]
  • Whigfield (yes, Whigfield!) - Think of You [Sunloverz Big Room Remix]
  • Tiao Cruz - Come on Girl [Wideboys Club Mix]

So, thank god for the exceptions is all I can say otherwise I'd get sooooo bored never playing any new stuff!

Anyways... I'm rambling now! :cheesy:

Ive kinda lost track of the music scene in the UK but new tracks that are working over here that are probably UK friendly;

Kelly Rowland - Work (Freemasons Mix) - I cant get enough of this one!
Cupid - 369
Missy Elliot - Ching-a-ling
Wyclef Jean vs Fatman scoop - Lie All Night (hehe, one of my mine) :P

Ill be sure to check out you recommendations.

I agree with the Freemasons mix of the Kelly Rowland track, its a great party track. Although personally I do feel that the before and after part of it are far, far too long and too repetative but that seems to be bit of a trend with many Freemasons mixs/tracks... they love making them 9+ minutes!

I do a variety of different stuff.

Disco Hire (Which I absolutely HATE but it's cash for our company) - Anything from the 60s to modern dance

Local Boozer - Again, a mixtue of all and put on Dance only nights playing mainly commercial tracks, old and new

Club Metro (Small Niteclub) - mixture of house, electro, hard house, trance, oldskool

If i'm doing anything at a club it's usually variations of house music just now although my passion is trance.

I play house, primarily focused on Electro and Progressive. I mostly just try to lend my style of house music to whatever the situation. I played a rave after party and was throwing down a ton of dirty electro, but I spun a bar last weekend and it was mostly electronic and house.

Hey i play House music, i love all genres of it mainly starting my sets off with a soulful vibe spanning the range through the night till, depending on what time my set is, i could end up on dirty glitchy 6a.m deep house

anything that gets teh people up and dancing. usualy I keep the tempo around 124-130BPM, I've found after years of spinning, this tempo keeps the crowds moving.
