Can we talk about music ?

Setting up playlists for a birthday can be very tricky. You quite don't know what to play because you don't know how the atmosphere will be like, so you can find yourself with dancing music whereas no one wants to dance or calm music with very excited people. Then how to do ? First of all I've visited many blogs and went to many restaurants and discos in order to see (and listen) what was playing, and how people felt it. And this is how I've found out that calm music encourages discussions and creates a positive, calm and warm atmosphere, whereas rhythmic music would encourage people to dance and also drink, which is not what I intend to do as we'll be drinking way later. Anyway I've managed to gather some good music with very contemporary musicians and bands, but I also kind of felt compelled to include many singers I like, after all, this is my birthday !!
