VNV nation (testament, saviour, paint it black)
MSTRKRFT (neon nights, paris)
INFECTED MUSHROOM (ANYTHING) =]

my cousin hosted a couple of raves downtown here and these songs worked wonders.

Make sure to play classics as well. Robin S - Show me love, Calabria - Drunkenmunkey, Traffic by Tiesto. Also, anything Armin van Buuren makes, Cafe Del Mar (Energy 52) etc.
As for Infected Mushroom: play Becoming Insane.

Also: Forever by Milk Inc.

EDIT: forgot Darude - Sandstorm as a classic, and then Lasgo's newest track Out Of My Mind. A track being played a lot in disco's in Belgium atm is David Latour - One Day.

Oh also, this mix is awesome: http://www.cockrockdisco.com/CRD2/al...ockp3-010.html

But it's more of a kind of weird dance mix... Regardless, it's awesome.

You should check out some ZeRo-BaSs songs and see if you like any.

Get some hardstyle in there.

Preferably, DJ Skinhead or Angerfist.

only good post I've seen in this thread imho

It all depends on what kind of rave you want to throw. If you want to do a lighter rave, then Armin Van Buuren's What If is a good song to get started with. Just look for similar tracks. Tiesto's way too overplayed.

Looking for harder stuff? Alles Kapot by Neophyte is always a good track. I also make some dumpy hardstyle **** hahaha I could hook you up with a generic track (hey, I need to get my name out there hehe)

Tiesto's way too overplayed.

Who cares if something's overplayed, as long as you have fun at the actual rave noone's going to complain. It's not like people will stop dancing and start shouting 'hey this track sucks because it's overplayed and we enjoy it less now'.

Re: So Rubix has the honor of making a playlist for a rave

Wow thanks for the detailed suggestions, guys. I've got a lot of music choices to sift through now O.O


BTW I see nothing wrong with a little Tiesto. Sometimes a little mainstream can be a good thing. People like dancing to things they recognize, you know? It's one of the reasons I've considered throwing Sandstorm in there. It's like the most popular techno song (in the sense that EVERYONE knows it). Even though I'd really rather add a bunch of newer stuff into the mix. The rave's going to be 2.5-3 hours long, anyway, so there is plenty of time.

Infected Mushroom for some psytrance - I'd suggest Becoming Insane or Viscious Delicious from their new album or anything off of The Gathering. I've never heard of anyone who doesn't get pumped up with IM stuff.

Combichrist is good for some abrasive industro-trance. Blut Royale sticks out as the most energetic but I think a crowd would even go for something like Happy Fcuking Birthday or God Bless.

I think you should loop excite bike over and over and over...
Lolo would be fine too

I hope that this event is going to be recorded.
I'd love to hear what you do use.

EDIT: Dude there's nothing wrong with Basshunter

I know, I really like Basshunter. But typical people hear something that's not English and go "wtf this sucks."

Or maybe it's just my area.

Then use the English versions All I Ever Wanted and Now You're Gone.
