i kinda think this topic already exist but the search didn't help me,
so if it does, you close and link
np
well I dj myself at home, spinning all genres of goa a bit more as a hobby...
but what is for you the most important in a dj set,
for example you have 100 %
1. telling a story
2. perfect beatmatching
3. playing unknow goa for the party people
4. advancement
5. killargh tracks/play what is popular
6. connecting with the people (if you should play it a party (hypothetical or not)
if you know antoher good variable just say,
I'll add...
for me it's like
40 procent telling a story
20 procent advacment
20 procent beatmatching
10 procent connecting with the people
10 procent unknow goa
0 procent killarg tracks / what people like

to me its more like :
50% what YOU Want to hear
25% beatmatching
20% connecting with the people
5% telling a story (because in the end, any mix is a story as its own)
if you play what YOU want to hear, then you are automatically connecting with the people because you love your music and are most probably dancing more than the people in front of you. Beatmatching is also important as it adds a more humain / creative side to your usual psytrance music.

1 . Best sound
2 . Mixing - Must be 100/100
3 . Playing new and unknow tracks !

30% Perfect beat mix.
20% connecting with the people
10% Advancement
10% Telling a story
Don't play what the ppl know - "popular tracks" ,
try to surprise them with many new tracks and show your capability mixing and tricks for them.
Try to connecting with the people with your "SHOW"! |

for me most important is to give ppl what they want.
of course not become a jukebox where they place money and it plays-for example i might be in the mood for a prog set one night and i have to play at 3-5.
definetely i wont start playing prog tracks!
you know what i mean!
then comes the beatmatching which is quite important and then all the others!

well the most important thing for me is to know what to play at the moment because it depends on what kind of party you are playing , you have to judge the people to see if they want clubby music , groovy , trancy , dark , electro , melodic ...... so the first hour of djing it's just preparing for what's to come. You also have to watch out for the time of the day ( if it is sunrise,sunset , midnight). The mixing skills are also important, the communication with the crowd and the story telling thing
Don't know how to put this in percents I guess everything should be done perfectly

dont see it in your way 20% 40% there
Good Dj Is 1 that know select his tunes 1 after 1 that have connection between that will make it for a 2 houers of story also he is just must read the crowd u cant play full on for a finishe crowd example or something like that u should know who is right on your face.
2 beatmix yeah some ppl saying its not big deal some ppl saying its must be 100% for me its very important to know when u make the mix coming on the right 1/4 and make it clear and smart.
3 play what i like music that make me smile and fill max energy in the air also i will hope crowd will eat it but for me its first play what i love so its make u playing with a good energy cause u like what u playing
4 its respect the artists for their crazy music and support them and buying original cd's yeah its true not all music its orginal but at least get it in normal way from artists and stuff.
but buying music is imprtant thing aLSo i seeing u didnt wrote it that good dj musy playing quality sound a master version from original album pr from artist himself
and another thing is the show dj (me like) must make a good show jump smile and give the crowd good vibes i like 2 going crazyy like a tiger JUMP DIG AND make some balagan to make the crowd go in to the music
so lets say wicked story + smart and clear beatmixing x "killaaarhhh" hehe Show = a good dj
so if any crazzyy goblin looking for something like that P.M ME
peace out.
  Happy Happy,Joy Joy.

stop thinking, using percentages, analysing your music, the crowd, etc. and just play... |

I agree on this
except that I would push the beatmatching a little higher.
Everybody can dj
