The core repertoire is built around melodic music from the 80s, 90s and 2000s, together with current danceable hits. The exact balance depends on the guests.
I watch who is dancing, which age groups respond and how long a style continues to work. Changes are made in coherent blocks rather than after every track.
For the right late-night crowd, thematic sets can include classic trance, house, minimal techno and the Hungarian Coronita sound, especially tracks from 1997–2000.
The main system uses two RCF ART 715-A MK V active speakers, professional stands and cabling, a compact DJ booth, a modern MacBook Air and Traktor control. A subwoofer and more lighting can be added later.
Wireless handheld microphones, lapel microphones and a wired backup are available or planned. Lighting uses LED, PAR and moving effects without turning an elegant event into a festival stage.
Good sound is not simply loud sound. Dancers should feel the music, while guests outside the dance area should still be able to talk.
