In its 28th glorious year, DMC continues to bring together the globe’s freshest DJ talents, vetted by a series of gruelling heats from London to Tokyo and Brazil, all culminating in one of the most entertaining and jaw dropping shows you will ever witness. This year’s UK Final will be even more mouth wateringly, boundary pushing than the last with fantastic competitors from around the country battling for a place at the World Finals.
Following the successful addition of computer based DJ programs last year, the battlers are sure to raise the bar even further in 2012. With heavyweights Rane and Serato as sponsors, DMC are dedicated to moving with the times to represent the current and future DJ styles.
To become a DMC World Champion, DJs around the world need to use techniques such as scratching & cutting to manipulate turntables in order to create their own musical arrangements, performing live in front of an audience filled with both the knowledgeable DMC fans and lucky newcomers being initiated to this fantastic contest.
With World Championship winners over the years including the superstar likes of the Scratch Perverts, A-Trak (Kanye West’s DJ), Q Bert, Craze and Mixmaster Mike (Beastie Boys), fame and respect could well accompany the bountiful prizes on offer (including a treasure trove of goodies provided by sponsors Rane, Serato, Novation and Sennheiser).
