How to throw the best 70s Party Ever!

By: escapeto theseventies

I have been asked so many times now about 70s parties that I believed I'd do a guide for those folks that need to throw the ultimate themed party.

The very first thing you have to do is get into the 70s mindset. What were the 70s all about Fun of courseFun with a capital F. So you need to do as much as you can to bring in that wizardry fun factor to bring back the memories of your guests.

thus the first thing you have to do is make it fancy dress. Of course , where is the fun in going to a 70s party without the flares, great Afro wigs, platforms or grotesque shirts? There are loads of decent fancy dress shops around but I've found the best one here. Of course if you'd like to be more authentic and have the real article then slip down to Ebay for some real bargains although I will say that men if you want some heavy platforms then use the fancy dress shops because unless you're actually fortunate the genuine articles will cost a fortune.

The second most important thing is the music. I am going to give you a list of tracks that I have assembled over thirty years of DJ'ing and partying experience which has worked for me.

Music-wise I typically split the party up into 4 sections.

The heat up

For when the guests are arriving and getting their Babychams.
Here I am going to play the less popular tracks that will hopefully get people in the right mood for the evening. You know the type of record that stops you mid sentence to claim *oh my God I remember this I was.* The idea is to get them reminiscing about the days when the record was out and to get them in precisely the right frame of mind for the rest of the evening.
