Lol....somehow I think I've left out a helluva lot of info above! Hmm. Yeah. We've had problems....choosing 15 DJ's from 60+ CD's isn't the easiest of things!

 

After a [censored] load of debate we've come up with the lineups for the comp. There shall be three heats (Two in September, One in October), with the top two DJ's from each heat going into the final, which shall fall on the same day as Goodgreef in October.

 

The panels of Judges shall include representitives from Goodgreef, North Gathering,Sin:ergy, Addiction, Spin Inn, www.clubtheworld.uk, www.clubithard.com, www.gurn.net, Toast, Binary, Incision as well as several recognised DJ's.

 

The lineups can be viewed at www.skiddle.com/toast

Safe to say the judges know what they are on about then

 

Just out of interest - what criteria are djs being judged on or is that secret??

[PeteToast]

You'll be judged on your beatmatching, originality, technical ability (This will include use of FX, scratching, cutting up etc), choice of tunes, performance (Ability to please the crowd, crowd interaction).

 

This is all yet TBC, but the point scoring system will be on display on the day.

Theres usually CDJ or Pioneer deck available, but you're probably best off bringing your own mate.

[Chris Hutchinson]

lol - Brining my own was gonna be my next question if the answer was no ;-)
