Frequently asked questions

Is voting a good fit for a big student party?
Yes — once enough guests have joined, collaborative voting (Premium) tends to surface the crowd's actual favorites automatically.
Can guests mix pop, R&B, and electro-pop from the 2000s?
Yes — there's no restriction on sub-genre; guests suggest whatever throwback they remember, and you (or the room, with voting) decide what plays.
Is 2000s music a safe choice for most crowds?
Generally yes — it's recent enough that most adult guests recognize the biggest hits, while still feeling distinctly nostalgic.
