Dutch legend Tiesto has partnered with 7up to give new artists a chance in the limelight.
Australian DJ competition, Your Shot, is making an expansion to the United States and over the next year will follow 30 artists as they train, practice and compete for the chance to play at next year’s Ultra Music Festival.
Here’s what Tiesto had to say while explaining the concept of the show
“It takes the idea of the DJ competition and turns it on its head. This contest really provides aspiring DJs with an opportunity to realize their dreams. Many times people don’t know how or where to get started with DJ’ing, but the great thing about Your Shot is that, win or lose, they get a platform to learn, grow and achieve great things as long as they are focused and dedicated.”
It is pretty clear that you DO NOT NEED to be a DJ to take part (but yeah, being one would help now wouldn’t it!)
Lets just hope the show doesn’t turn out to be like Idol where contestants are chosen based on their personality more than their skills. (Oh wait, Isn’t that what the DJ Mag does too? ;) )
