Burn & MTV present The Ultimate DJ Championship 2010 - A Submerge Property

After the complete fail that was the Kingfisher Flyp DJ Academy, I'm a little bit weary about DJ competitions.  However, this seems to be the real deal. Usually when Submerge are connected to these kinds of initiatives, it means it's going to be done right. A part of me wants to do this, all gung ho and shit, but unfortunately, fortunately, however you want to look at it, I'm employed and I'm loving it, drowning in work and couldn't be happier. Let's see though... :) 

Nikhil Chinapa teased this on the Submerge Forum and it was pretty cool to see how the idea developed into this massive monster. The winner earns himself a year long residency as a Submerge DJ - that will obviously mean multiple cities, the lucky bastard. haha, Well hardly lucky, because whoever it is, they're going to have to earn it. The winner also gets money - gets paid, a slot at a UK festival (that's fucking huge!) and professional DJ gear too. Might be Pioneer stuff, I'm not really sure on that though.

This is big and if interested, the best place to follow up on the rules, deadline dates, if you have questions for Nikhil or Submerge admin Tuhin Mehta, then I'd suggest you sign up now and get on that Submerge forum.  They've been promoting this on Twitter and there's quite a bit of interest in it.

Kingfisher Ultra launch their talent hunt for your city's favourite DJ!

Kingfisher Ultra (the emperor of good times - I like that switch from king of good times, KF Ultra is a decent beer after all) have launched their DJ talent hunt to choose each city's 'ULTRA DJ'... Basically, they're picking out the best of the best DJs in each of the metros (Pune, Bangalore, Mumbai). It also looks like they're not really interested in the big names, they're looking for someone fresh and new. So if you're a frustrated talented DJ, who hasn't been able to break out in the limelight for whatever reasons, this could be your ticket to hit the big leagues!  Workshops held by world class DJs, possible gig opportunities and much much more!  All the details are on their site... check it out if you're interested!  Registration ends on May 5th, 2010.
