Asked to DJ last minute: Need music from these countries (see inside)

[Trey22]

Poland
Hungary
Spain
Scotland
Sweden
Russia
Germany
Greece

Setting is a 25th Anniversary party where there will be 8 different "stations" (decorations, food, drink, music from each country above).

Help!

 

[KLin]

search for spotify channels for each country?

 

[Trey22]

I'd prefer to be able to pay/download music so it's portable, but I'll check out Spotify (never used it).

 

[Carson Dyle]

25th anniversary of what? Wedding?

Why the theme party?

 

[cbrunny]

You can do the same thing from Google Play Music.

 

[BurnItDwn]

Poland - Polka (traditional) or Riverside (modern/rock)

Hungary - I dont know

Spain - bullfighter type music or mariachi band?

Scotland - Bagpipes! Some Celtic Rock .. stuff they play at "scotch festivals" or "highland games" ... Example: Mud Men (yes they come from Canada, but doesnt matter they are awesome). Otherwise, there is always Pirate Metal, Alestorm.

Sweden - play some traditional Yoiking, or just stuck on some Opeth or Katatonia, their newer albums are more accessible to non-metal people...

Russia - Tetris soundtrack!

Germany - More Polka!

Greece - I dont know much greek music

Thx, off to search/track down suggestions.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

This song usually goes over well for big crowds

For Germany you could use anything by Neil Diamond or David Hasselhoff.

 

[Imp]

Germans and former Soviet Bloc appear to really like EDM...?

 

[DaveSimmons]

Germany - Kraftwerk, Nena (99 luffballons). Sadly Falco is Austrian

Scotland - Tannahill Weavers

 

[midnight growler]

I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to suggest Swedish House Mafia or ABBA for Sweden

 

[lxskllr]

Russia - Inna Zhelannaya, Мельница, Lenningrad(careful if there's native speakers present)
Germany - Cynthia Nickschas
Sweden - Garmarna, Groupa

 

[FeuerFrei]

The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards - Parallel Tracks album: the ultimate bagpipe rock

some of those countries I'm not even sure they make music

 

[twinrider1]

I'd look at music from the 70s and 80s since it's a 25th anniversary party. Probably stick with their pop music unless you know the guests like a certain genre. I wouldn't get cheesy with it...don't play the oom pa pa song for Germany. There is no single kind of music for a country. By the 70s they all had their own rock, country, soul, electronic music.

Ok, I just googled my way into Locomotiv GT. Had never heard of them before but I'm really digging this album. It's rock, so if you're guests like rock, this will probably make them smile.

Hungary -- Locomotiv GT

99 Luftballoon - Germany
