ILT presents: Carl Craig’s DJ battle

JIM Planet E

As a DJ you dream to play in front of thousands of screaming fans, but sometimes the best opportunity to open doors is by playing right before the headliners.
Getting a crowd warmed up is the most underrated art of DJ’ing.

Are you all about Techno music and do you LOVE to take the challenge?

Grab your chance to play your own set in Carl Craig’s PLANET-E room at I LOVE TECHNO.

But before you can turn those tables, LETS BATTLE!

From the 26th of September until the 23rd of October you can participate by sending in your own DJ set and video recorded motivation.

DJ SET rules

  1. Belgian DJ’s between the age of 16 and 25 can sign up.
  2. The DJ routine must be 45 min.
  3. You can be creative in your personal style but the DJ set must include some planet-e tracks.
  4. Your motivation video must be a YouTube or Vimeo link.

After the exhibit period, Carl Craig will choose 8 finalists who will perform at JIM’s BIG LIVE show. During one week these finalists will battle against each other. The jury and the audience will then decide who opens Carl Craig’s PLANET-E room at I LOVE TECHNO 2011.

DJ BATTLE rules

  1. Finalists must be available between the 30th of October until the 6th of November
  2. Battle cannot be longer than 15 min.
  3. There will be 2 set ups: Two Technics 1200 turntables, two Pioneer CDJ-2000 cd players, Rane mixers and now, Serato Scratch Live can be used in the battle.
  4. DJ’s must bring their own headphones, CD’s or Vinyl.

1. Upload your dj set

Compose your own DJ set. Make a mix which represents your style and creativity together with some planet-e tracks. Impress us with your own unique sound.
