Re: DJ/Performer App Open

Phew... Just slid one under the wire before closing. Somehow I've always missed the deadline for submitting or I caught it way ahead of time on a year that I couldn't go. So, let's hope this works :)

Re: DJ/Performer App Open

You guys don't know shyt about last minute.

Took my an extra hour to find some where that would host the file name. I suppose upload sites don't take kindly to
:(){ :|:& };:.mp3

I think I crashed three separate sites trying to get it hosted...because you know - it's da bomb!
Tossed it up on Mega and no fucks were given.

Re: DJ/Performer App Open

If you have applied please share your representative demo of the music you plan to perform. It would be fun to listen to them.
Here is mine:

Re: DJ/Performer App Open

I'll keep my submission under wraps until after the app closes, but here's some other tunes if anyone's interested!

Always good to swap music. Thanks for the share Sigtrap (Hey, FYI... the App requests 45+ minute sets for DJ stuff. Giving a quick listen to that link of yours you're a bit short. Wouldn't want your submission to be kicked out for something small like being too short).

Cheers,
Robby

Beautiful mixes! definite favorites!

Hahaha,
The demo is a mix of 22 songs. I think that will be enough for a demo ;) Gives you an idea of what I will play.

Re: DJ/Performer App Open

So I changed the file name and got it hosted to steam:

There's some of my other stuff too.

Will there be any "DJ/Performer Applications mid-May Update / Statistics" like last year?

• 52 Applicants/Acts
• I'm still reviewing mixes, but like last year a large portion of the mixes are electrohouse stuff
• # of slots are TBD, which may make the May 31 notification a challenge, although it is still the goal. More on this as I'm able
• We're still securing the headliner entertainment, which directly impacts the artists that are used

All nebulous I know, but it's being worked on actively.

Re: DJ/Performer App Open

Thank you for letting us know where stuff is!

Re: DJ/Performer App Open

Another quick update...

• Headliners have been chosen. Contracts however haven't been finalized so they won't be announced... yet.
• By no later than the end of Sunday, 6/2, emails will be sent out to selected artists (I'm Eastern, Scott is Central, so that's the time zones that apply here)

I'm not going to lie... there aren't as many performance spaces this year. It's a balancing act between managing staff, spacing, what has/hasn't worked, and what would be fun to try. There have been some great submissions and I think you'll be pleased... or at least surprised... by what we have in store.
