DJ Tips
I strongly recommend a mix of both. Every group of dancers is different, so this isn't an absolute rule, but most dancers prefer a mixture of familiar favorites and new music. Everyone has their favorite tunes that make them happy. And people love having a chance to dance to popular tunes they've heard. So don't leave those out. Furthermore, the better leads want to match their variations to the breaks in the music, which only happen when they know the break is coming. Then new music is always exciting for most people, including the experienced dancers, so also include those in your mix. DJ's more often err on the side of not enough familiar favorites (or worse, none). This recommendation is specifically for social dance music.
