Knight Riders' Battle of the Mega Mix is the North West's premier DJ
talent competition.
Contestants from all walks of life and musical styling compete in this
yearly event for a chance to win huge prizes
and bragging rights. We are fast approaching
this year's competition set for October 18th 2008 at The Nectar Lounge
in Seattle
We are now actively calling out for contestant submissions. This year
marks the third annual Battle of the Mega Mixes competition. BOTMM
2008 promises to be our largest, most entertaining competition yet!
Last year's winner:
Kristina Childs!
Outline of the Competition:
This is a vinyl only competition. So you may only use records to battle!
There are two rounds. In each round competitors have ten minutes to
prove to the audience and judges that only they have what it takes to
be a BOTMM Champion.
After the first round the judges will tally up their scorecards and
select 2 DJs to advance to the second and final round of the
competition.
After the remaining 2 finalists compete the audience will have a
chance to vote by applause for their favorite DJ of the night. Only
one will win! The audience will decide.
This is a MegaMix Battle!
We will only be selecting the highest caliber of DJs to compete. If
your only trick is scratching and beat juggling you may want to learn
how to match a beat before even thinking of submitting your profile
for consideration.
What is a MegaMix?
Wikipedia sums it up pretty nicely:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megamix
Although the definition found here should not necessarily be used to
define how your set should be formatted. Your definition of a MegaMix
should be defined by your own interpretation but should still function
as a MegaMix for this competition.
We will be holding a invitation only wild card prelim round at the end of September at Vito's on the 30th. You must regester by Sep. 15th to be considered.
What the Judges are scoring on:
-Stage Presence
-Track selection
-Mixing skills
-Continuity
-Pace and timing
-Number of tracks used
-Crowd appreciation
-Mistakes
-Over all performance
-Over all command of mixer and turntable
Stay tuned for more full line up
developments and information to come.
