Want to spin your tracks at the Adelaide Fringe 2011 Opening Night? Fringe Benefits’ 2011 SPIN DJ Competition is looking for Adelaide’s best mixmasters, with one winner scoring the chance to play in front of thousands of people on Friday 18 February!
Celebrating its 5th birthday, the competition is open to emerging and established South Australian DJs across all genres and is a huge springboard for local talent wanting to build their reputation on the DJ circuit.
2010 SPIN DJ winner, DJ (Miguel) Sanchez says playing at the Adelaide Fringe Opening Night was the best experience of his career so far.
“It was a crazy feeling playing my stuff in front of thousands of people and seeing such a diverse crowd all getting down to good beats,” said DJ Sanchez.
“Winning SPIN DJ definitely gave me a bigger profile and led me to support Ice Cube at HQ, play at the 2010 Future Music Festival and become a resident DJ at Apple Bar.”
To choose the 2011 winner, Fringe Benefits will host a SPIN OFF event at Rocket Bar on Friday 28 January, giving four finalists the chance to battle it out live in front of a jam-packed crowd.
Hand-picked by judges from Onion Magazine, Nova 919 and the Adelaide Fringe, the winner will also get their mix played on Nova 919 and uploaded to onion.com.au.
Entries open from Wednesday 1 December – Sunday 9 January.
