There are veunes that play mid tempo, however venues with large dancefloors feel obliged to play dance floor records. Find a small venue with a small dancefloor, and forward thinking promoters and D.J's, and mid tempo heaven is what you'll get..........Try the Greatstone, Manchester, should just be your cup of tea .

Have to say Mark... although there's no denying they are all fantastic records... have 4 of them myself... but at a venue... all night... ?

forward thinking dj's play mid tempo ??

I think that it is possible to play some mid tempo tunes as part of a well thought out set..as long as the flow is there. I dont mean wishy washy slowies....I mean...great big production stuff with a good strong beat, but even then no one with an ounce of sense would do this unless they were sure that the punters were up for it. I guess when it comes down to it, it all depends on how the room feels on the night.
