DJ Deks said that players sometimes create playlists to suggest their own music, which prompts him to make additions or subtractions to the warm-up mix. He added that the Red Hot Chili Peppers were a popular choice for players in previous years, however, the mix generally stays within high-energy genres such as EDM and hip-hop.<\/p>\n
Tailoring these music selections is a collaborative process and one that is adjusted throughout the year. DJ\u00a0Deks said that Neighbours is a \u201cmusic guy\u201d and someone he communicates with regularly when organizing the season mix.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHe knows country, rock,\u00a0EDM, hip hop. And he likes all of it and appreciates all of it, so all the songs kind of come through him and then come to us and then we just go back and forth\u2026 Jake is usually the guy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
This season\u2019s rendition\u00a0includes artists like John Summit, AC\/DC, Imagine Dragons, Eminem, Drake, Lynyrd Skynyrd and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a big puzzle of genres and energy because some songs give different people energy,\u201d DJ Deks said. \u201cSo trying to put that all together and have one finished product, it\u2019s like a big mega mix \u2013 the story that I\u2019m trying to tell for them through music.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"DJ Deks said that players sometimes create playlists to suggest their own music, which prompts him to make…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":684475,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5120],"tags":[71,5,4,534,84,5285,5284],"class_list":["post-684474","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-st-louis-blues","tag-blues","tag-hockey","tag-nhl","tag-st-louis","tag-st-louis-blues","tag-stlouis","tag-stlouisblues"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/117424261913595381","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/684474","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=684474"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/684474\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/684475"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=684474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=684474"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=684474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
