Not to long ago I heard a dj play the same track twice, once early in his set and later on he played it again. I didn't really pay much attention to it since nobody else seemed to notice.
Still, isn't there enough music out there?

Yeah, sometimes you dont remember you already play that track, but is kind of of a noob error. More likely to happen if the dj is wasted XD

nope, it's a main rule for me that a track can't be Repeated, it's like a Sacrilege.
and there should be an Almighty rule that Says don't Repeat the Same Track if Somebody else played it...it's Annoying to listen in the same night 3 times Ace Ventura's the Light...

it can happen as a mistake. Not sure if it happened to me but that could very well be.
Sometimes it is nice to play a remix of a track just for a short bit. If it has a nice theme it can be fun to let that come back every now and then.

I've played part of a track, then skipped over to another track....then played the rest of the first track...
..but not the same track twice. Seems silly considering how much music is out these days.

in my sets i´ve never repeated a track.
but i do not see why not spin a track twice, with a nice time between repeating then,i mean, in my car i soemtimes push repeat over and over again..i guess it all goes with the mood you are into, who hasn´t done it?repeat the same track at home, or at a car..
of course if in a party i hear over and over again the same track, well..i guess it won´t be as much amusing then

Ive heard an individual who shall remain nameless who happens to run a label play the same Cosmo track twice, the dancefloor nor the dj appeared to be unaware and anyway its a fun track.
Ive only done it on purpose, I made a Russian-themed mix a few yrs ago and used Deja Vu Fabrique-Only Love from Kill Effing Bill as an intro and outro, playing the first bulk as the in and the second bulk as the out, sounded nice. I found out later that one of the tracks wasnt a Russian artist, so I never shared it. I still have it though and love it despite the odd-man-out (Puzze Dao off Royal Straight Flush), which sorta ruins the theme, idk how to present it, as a Russian and Puzze Dao mix, or just a mix with mostly Russians...
Im not against playing the same track twice, if done properly. Ive always thought that the same 2 tracks can always be mixed together differently, and a track that has one mood with another track(s) can take on another different mood with different tracks alongside. For example; Flucturion-Syncropic Center is great for night and goes jsut fine with Kindzadza's earlier stuff such as Fight or Die or Na Ostrov, but also works great with melodic smoother stuff like Dominator or Re Horakhty. Its all about context

I always have & will do it as I feel like it is successfully closing a story. For me it says "I have taken you on a journey and now we've done the full circle."
I hate you, you hate me, we are all so hap hap happy! |

In one of my sets i play the same track but different remixes....it actually works pretty well as some of the elements in the beggining appear again in the middle of the set with a different "interpretation".
I do play my sets more than once....they usually took me so much time to build and i'm very perfeccionist with my mixing (though not very skilled ) that i tend to use them more than once. Also i use samples and loops which also, for me, means extra time preparing so i'm not using the sets only once...of course i dont play weekly and i usually have one or two "spare" tracks to feed my mood

Haha.... Was not paying attention and dropped duplicate track in to the deck and mixed right in.. I was like WOW that mix was smooth!!! Then... Oh Sh$t... Quckly dropped the proper track in and fixed the situation.. Someone asked me what that track was as the thought they had the track but it sounded different for some reason... I said Uhm... I've got the extended version...  |
