Now into its 19th year, DMC and Technics, hosts of the
world’s most prestigious DJ Championship,
have now completed 3 months worth of heats in 6 major
cities
and are getting ready for the UK Final.
Once again DMC will stage the DMC/Technics UK Final
at its spiritual home of the Shepherds Bush Empire,
where over 2,000 die hard fanatics will meet armed with
a personal opinion
to cast over the 8 competing finalists.
Meanwhile, hundreds of DJ hopefuls have practised to
perfect their skills, tightening
that crucial 6 minute routine in an attempt to become
a turntable legend like luminaries
such as Cash Money, Cutmaster Swift, Craze, A-trak,
Q-Bert and Roc Raida
to name just a few that came and conquered.
This year’s event also includes the Battle for UK Supremacy.
