I’m as guilty of anyone as having my favourite selection when it comes to playing music to fill a dancefloor.
While this list isn’t based on any real science, and certainly not on official record sales, it’s a guide to show the type of music that I find popular on the dancefloors for the majority of events. In no particular order:
Kool & The Gang – Celebration
Wham – Wake Me Up
Frankie Vali & The Four Seasons – December ’63 (Oh What A Night)
Abba – Dancing Queen
Bee Gees – Stayin’ Alive
Van Morrison – Brown Eyed Girl
Bryan Adams – Summer Of ‘69
House Of Pain – Jump Around
Dexy’s Midnight Runners – Come On Eileen
Foundations – Build Me Up Buttercup
The Proclaimers – 500 Miles
The Killers – Mr Brightside
Kings Of Leon – Sex On Fire
The Beatles – Twist And Shout
Madness – Baggy Trousers
Mark Ronson feat Amy Winehouse - Valerie
Temptations - My Girl
Mark Ronson feat Bruno Mars – Uptown Funk
Pharrel Williams – Happy
PSY – Gangnam Style
Quick disclaimer – I don’t play all of those songs at all events! I use my knowledge and experience, combined with requests received, to play the music most appropriate for any event.
I’ll look at specific genres in future blogs, so check back soon!
