Trevor's 10 Essential DJ Bag Tunes
Check out these 10 songs which never ever leave my DJ record bag.
Ray Charles - I Got A Woman
This is probably the oldest recorded song that I play out and is obviously popular with everyone because of Kanye West sampling it for 'Goldigger'.
Chic - Chic Cheer
One of Nile Rodgers less well known tunes, but a dance floor filler with crowd noises in the recording
Pharrell Williams - Gust of Wind
Love Pharrell's latest album particularly this collaboration with Daft Punk, a timeless piece of electronica/soul.
De La Soul - Me, Myself and I
I have dug this one out of my crates recently and just can't stop playing it. Happy memories of Hip Hop's daisy age.
Stevie Wonder - All I Do
He is the greatest and this is a gorgeous slice of emotive dance music before the emergence of house music.
The Sounds of Blackness - Optimistic
I cannot think of a more uplifting song at this tempo. Here is a unique gospel club anthem.
Donell Jones - U Know What's Up
I think this is my favorite RnB club song ever. As soon as it's over I want to play it again.
Jamiroquai – Too Young To Die
One of the bands finest moments. Soulful acid jazz. I love watching people dance to this.
Jill Scott - Golden
I am desperate to include this on my next collection album! People exhale loudly when this intro kicks in.
Jean Knight - Mr Big Stuff
Simple, raw funky 70's soul groove. It's impossible not to nod your head to this jam from one of my favorite vocalists.
