Kevinkent Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Rare, but by that I don't mean rarely available. I mean rarely played. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Davetay Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Rare, but by that I don't mean rarely available. I mean rarely played. I voted modern, but the main room should be rare and not tryed and tested.(over played oldies). Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I voted modern, but the main room should be rare and not tryed and tested.(over played oldies). In that case I'd like tried and tested in the second room. (I think).

Guest Bearsy Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 anything goes, why stick to 1 genre of this splintered scene when if the promoter gets it right he can mix his djs up to suit a good mix of everything, well thats my opinion anyway Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Matt Male Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) Stuff that is rarely played in the main room (although that depends which main room i suppose). Exactly the soul night me and Adam run now, that would be my ideal second room. Gloucester's second room is the best so far.

Steve G Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) How strange that modern has got so many votes when when so many of us agreed on another thread that modern was not a natural bedfellow with northern and most modern fans went home at a sensible hour etc. I assume the main room is "Norman oldies" ? And are we talking real modern, or northern boys playing Alfie Davison, Charles Johnson, Exportations etc? Confused and disorientated.

Anything goes as long as it's not being played in the main room. If the music is good enough it will be rocking in there Spot on with that Mr Pickles if the music is good why limit yourself with what you can play. I love my Rnb, Early Soul, Latin etc and would look to mix all these in when dj-ing. IMO a good dj will always mix it up, if you stick to one genre it all starts to sound very samey! Why not mix in oldies with underplayed soul followed by some latin, Rnb and funky soul. I say get it all in the mix, it's what makes a quality dj from a average dj!

Guest Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) If you could have a second room at an allnighter what would you choose? Overplayed, hammered to death oldies. Played by DJs who stopped caring decades ago, playing the same 24 records they played the week before and in the same order. Obviously boots/pressing are OK as long as the DJ can say give the story that they used to own the original and payed 40pence for it. Any records that are not overplayed and hammered to death are totally unwelcome and should any 'wannabe' DJ play such a crap 'rare soul' record it will be met with an instant clearing of the dancefloor and shouts of 'Play some Northern Soul!'. Obviously this is assuming that the main room is the 'freestyle' type described earlier where DJs are given freedom to play what they want with just two restrictions of 'OVO' and 'danceable' Edited May 13, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Citizen P Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 If you have one room with a mix of tunes,why have a second room Kev I would also suggest that the addition of a second room had a large part to play in sewing the seeds of fragmentation that we now have, and yes I do mean right back to Mr M's that started the trend for a section of the crowd to start looking backwards.

Guest DeeJay Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Yes me too underplayed rare stuff for me as well. Stu. How about any "soul" choon(s) that you rarely hear, anywhere, Regardless of age, speed ,or style. I quite often come across "nice" soul records, when buying blind, that you wouldn't hear at a "normal"night. It also depends on the other room, size of venue, and amount of people expected.
