I JUST CAN'T SAY NO

Of the many things I occupy myself in SL, DJing is one of the main ones. Like most things I do now in SL, it happened by accident, but funnily enough I had been playing with the idea before I ventured to it during a time of need at my current family’s main club/venue.

Over the last year and after having worked in several clubs, each with their own set of rules, I have learned the ins and outs of being, in my honest opinion an “efficient” and somewhat “liked” DJ with a steady following. But what’s the real secret behind achieving such a thing? is it your choice of music? your work ethics? your availability?

I have to admit that there is no secret recipe for being a really good DJ, in fact, there is no secret recipe for being a really good whatever; in my personal case I never refuse a request and will make my personal best to find it if I don’t have it.

Each DJ of course is different, since people are different, but the request factor seems to be what draws the crowd’s attention, added to your personal choice of music played. When people go to a club, most of the time they go because so and so DJ is playing, not for the club itself.

What to do when a person requests a song that doesn’t  really go with the style of music you are playing? well, in there you have to options, you either play it and cringe while doing it or you can refuse to play it by ignoring the request, in my own personal case… I just can’t say no
