Visually mapping compatible tunes
Attachment 2027
I don't know how other DJ's organise their sets,
I once was told that a collection of tunes were like deck of cards and as a DJ you need to know which ones to play and in what order.
I'm quite a visual person and I don't feel I know all of my tunes well enough to simply pluck random ones out mid set and have fully flexible style, so instead I have made some diagrams linking together tunes that I like which sound good together and follow a similar vibe, and then can use it as a guide so can be semi-flexible but also semi-planned.
I like this approach as it allows me to focus the creativity into how I use bits of the track and what effects and techniques I will use, rather than a panic trying to dig out an old tune from a massive catalogue.
Does anyone else have a similar approach? or do you do something completely different?
