Once
again this summer The Gallery at Turnmills is teaming up with Subbass
DJ Academy to bring you the UKs biggest search for new DJ talent. This
year we are happy to welcome onboard The D.J.A. as well to complete an
all star lineup.
The Disc Jockey Association has just launched after three years of
development. Their strapline “Taking Care of DJs” does exactly what it
says on the tin. For those that make it, or want to make it, a D.J.’s
career can be a long, glamorous and lucrative one. But there can also
be downsides. With that in mind and also to establish the professional
body for D.J.s, The D.J.A. has been set-up to ensure that D.J.s, no
matter what sex, style or level, have a service that enables them to
make the most of their potential.
Subbass DJ Academy has grown into one of the UKs leading teaching
centre's for DJing and production, with bigname DJs like Mike Koglin
and Trevor Mclacklin starting their DJ careers with courses at Subbass.
The Subbass Tutors are all Pro DJs and Producers. Subbass is very well
connected to many top clubs and labels, and has been able to help DJs
get that first gig and for producers to get their tracks signed.
We will be holding a series of heats at Turnmills in London, the
winners of each heat will progress on the the semi final and then the
Final which will be held on October 18th. All of the heats are open for
everyone to attend, with free entry and special drinks promotions on
the night.
The winner will get to play at Turnmills for Gallery alongside the
likes of Tall Paul and Judge Jules. Over the past few years we have
found some amazing new talent and launched many new careers behind the
decks.
2006 winner John Bentley played alongside Tall Paul, Sander Van
Doorn, John Askew and Gavyn Mytchel and in 2005 winner Craig Gunn Got
to warm up for Paul Oakenfold and Craig will be back playing the main
room in July.
This year judging will be Gavyn Mytchel (The Gallery), Graeme Lloyd (Subbass) and international DJ Alex P.
If you would like to be the next winner then simply record a 30
minute demo on a housey or trancey tip on to a CD and then send it
to.....
