FANTASTIC FOUR!!

OK guys, the semi finalists are as follows.......

PSYMON BARNET
MARTY J
DANIMAL
CRISIS

Bring that four to the floor hey heeeey!! As a TRUE music lover, I've been open to, and fully enjoyed each and every set brought to the competition! I was starting to forget there are epic beats in so many varied genre's other than Techno prog house(I'm and avid lover) !!!!! Oh Jeebus!!!! So big ups to setting me straight and smacking that opinion out me!
So yeya, big ups to each and every one of you that came along and was part of the competition.

Decknology competition to me is about the best a talented DJ can do with the thirty minutes they got that night. And who ever pulls finger on the night, and smashes those thirty minutes, in my mind, wins. know what I'm saying. I don't for one minute pretend to think its a reflection of how one is in general in the art of dj'n.

So yeya, I'm hoping and asking all crew and whanu come down and support these geezas on Friday. The more the merrier.
And don't let their cool calm and collected demeanor's fool you! There are most definitely butterflies fluttering around, inside the boys tummies! WORD!

ON THE NIGHT

Id like it if you guys could arrive at the dux at 8pm or before. With tunage and ya crew ready to cut some shapes on that d foor. ready to go yo!!
I'm gonna pull the names outta a hat for the time slots. Be there or be.... well.......be square (and outta the comp)
Tea Baggers are gonna be in the mix from 7.45pm. You DONT wanna miss these dudes a. Farkin Funny. And Phat of course.
any questions just holla guys!

Something to think about....

HOW JUDGING WORKS:

Judging will be marked out of a total of 50. There are 5 different category with each category scored out of 10. The categorys are as follows:

GAIN CONTROL - Judge will be looking for the following...Volume control during mixing, fading in and out of track...using the mixer as a tool.

BEAT MIXING - A basic but fundamental technique for many genres-but not all. Points will be added for speed change or interesting pitch control. Points will be taken away for galloping or heaven forbid-the train wreck.

TURNTABLISM - Turntablism will be scored on any additional physical technique used to enhance the mix. Not having any doesn't mean you will score low - it really depends on appropriate use...

THE MUSIC - We will be looking at how your set flows. Beginning or end of the set. Any unusual selections that give your performance another edge or create dynamic in the set.

X FACTOR - Stage presence...energy and enthusiasm...original material...MC along for the ride...thing like that. OH!! BLING BABY YEYA!!!!!!!!!!!!
