London’s Playlist Club makes US–UK connection
This Easter, Playlist Club offers digital DJs a chance to shine on March 26 in London, and March 28 in the USA – in Philadelphia.
Admission to both events is free. There’s more information on the Playlist Web site.
We invite DJs to bring along their legally-owned music on an iPod or other music player and sign-up to play a 15-minute set. They aim to get the best audience reaction, and the very best DJs win prizes. As well as released tracks, DJs are welcome to play their own songs and mixes.
iPodLounge is offering an iPod shuffle and a $50 iTunes voucher for the best US Playlist DJ, while PodGear is offering a range of all-new ipod peripherals as prizes in the UK.
How it works:
We invite DJs to bring along their legally-owned music on an iPod or other music player and sign-up to play a 15-minute set. They aim to get the best audience reaction, and the very best DJs win prizes. As well as released tracks, DJs are welcome to play their own songs and mixes.
Judges – each of which gets a free drink from the club (London only, sorry) to ease their deliberations – listen to the music and assess the DJ’s 15-minutes of fame, they look for originality, audience reaction and their own gut feeling. Their score decides which DJs win prizes.
Dancers – you don’t have to be a DJ or judge to enjoy the party. Diverse music means Playlist welcomes party people ready to enjoy a widely diverse music selection on the night.
You are welcome
Admission is free – we don’t believe you should pay to play at Playlist – just go and buy some records! The London March 26 event runs 9pm-2am at Progress Bar, 162 Tufnell Park Road, London, N7 0EE.
Playlist Philadelphia runs Monday March 28 at Philadelphia’s The Khyber, 56 S. 2nd Street (2nd & Chestnut) from 7.30pm until late.
Playlist – where digital democracy meets the dancefloor.
