DJ friendly challenge ideas thread

[Jagwah]

We just finished the 'Acid Techno Challenge 2021' and it was great to get enough submissions to make a proper event of it. I see potential here if we continue with similar limitations - namely the tempo. If we keep everything within a reasonable BPM range then tracks from all the following challenges including the ones just completed can all be mixed together! Also as it's a Reason community challenge we should keep the 'Use Reason in some way' rule.

Please share any ideas you have for future DJ friendly challenges in this thread! We can build on ideas here and also bounce out to a new thread if it looks like we agree on the next challenge.

Also see this thread for DJ software and controller ideas: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=7527527


Cheers!

Some ideas I've had:

*Acid Techno Challenge 2

*Use a VST emulator or create our own Reason emulation to make music based on the same limitations there were in a particular era - 8 bit Nintendo for example.

*Psytrance

*EBM

*This song 'Teachers' by Daft Punk, it's got lyrics like:

Robert Hood
Parris Mitchell
Dave Clarke is in the house
Van Helden in the house
Armani in the house
Surgeon is in the house, yeah

I thought it might be cool to do something similar but use names from forum members, so it would be like:

Phasys
Mattias
Joey Luck in the house, yeah.
