WEDDING RECEPTION DJ ESSENTIALS by Captain_Dude
I've spent the past 30 years of my life owning and operating a mobile DJ service. I've compiled a list of what I have found to be the essentials to have on hand at a wedding reception. These albums have mass appeal and are in no way for the home headphone audiophile and record connoisseur. To DJ at a wedding reception, you must always remember that you're there to cater to a diverse audience. So, throw away your statements about a song being "overplayed" or "overrated." You're being paid to please a crowd and to keep them entertained. I'm posting this list in the hope that it will prove to be a valuable resource to others.

excelent chart, i used to work as a DJ on Mexico city and there are a lot of differences and some pleasant coincidences
Fun and I Learned a lot!
Entertaining list. Made me think of a few songs I need to pick-up, from the Flamingos and the Black Eyed Peas.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
