If I had to play all the same tracks every week, I’d probably go out of my mind.  Sure, there are songs that have stood the test of time, and they seem to be universally liked by literally everyone. The key to a great playlist is balance and knowing when it’s time to pivot.  This is the main reason I don’t plan my sets in advance; it’s impossible to predict when these moments will happen. 

And I love recognizing these moments; they’re little puzzles that I need to solve by reading the room and choosing to play the appropriate songs in the right order to create a unique, memorable, and incredibly fun experience.
