Tracks 01-19: The Opener is slower (83bpm), dubby, older classics and experimental.
Tracks 20-38: The Middle Man bringing up the tempo and starting to play a wider variety of tunes
Tracks 39-55: The Closer upbeat temp & drive, heavier bassline, pulling out the heavyweights
I got inspired by an old friend of mine DJ B-Funk how tweeted recently.
"Creating an opener set is one of the most rewarding and crucial skills a dj can do. Did you know many “bangers” from 3-5 years ago are now acceptable for an opening set? It’s true! They don’t always carry the same energy they used to." - @djbfunk
I totally feel this is one of these "more you know moments". ba ha. But I could not agree more. Those older classics might just be the perfect thing for your crowd. Or maybe it's full of old heads that want to hear something out there and new that's, not main time. Skylarking by London Elektricity comes to mind.
Each one of these timeslots has different responsibilities, that change depending on your crowd. On that note much love and respect to the Jungle / Drum & Bass community on Twitch. It's always a treat to have you all in the chat, for your comments, questions, and fanfare. Thank you.
As for the rest of you, if you don't know about the DnB community on the Twitch platform check out the DnB Discord for a crash course. From The Annex also is spinning up a Discord server [HERE].
Big ups to the producers, DJs, and labels that make the music that I love. Without your creative output the world would be a less exciting place. Respect
