does anyone know who is running this or judging this?? It sounds like it's cool, but I'm wondering if it is rigged, because the prizes are awfully amazing...

"Contest will be open to residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia"

I like the idea of demonstrating after being selected as the winner...

make it 100% proof positive that you're not going to select some fuckup... :RockOn:

i don't think diggers is judging either. perhaps when the person has been chosen, but it only states that future music are choosing the winner.

:roll:

I wish I knew what the judges liked! I mean, there is such a thing as playing to your audience, and the judges are a specific audience for sure. Seems hopeless. :*(

I'm confused. I would think that since the contest is for opening for digweed, they would want a nice warm up type set, but who knows what they are thinking really. I think it's rigged. Oh well, I'll just have to find another way to open for digweed. Maybe have my own contest.

Maybe they'll get some Fergie wannabe. That should be fun. :D

when will the winner be annouced?

#210519Post 12 of 25

question

On the Futuremusic thing contest "Rules", it states to do a 60 minute House mix.... now do they really mean House as in like Deep house, vocal house?

yeah, kinda dumbass question.... only reason I ask is because they might want a different kind of set; being that Digweed is the main Progressive/deep tech house guy, they might want something different...

I'm not sure what kind of set I should record.. ahhh what the hell. :roll:

I'll play what I like.

too bad it it only for the usa

#210559Post 14 of 25

well, think about what you would probably play if you opened for Digweed, or was there and heard the opener for Digweed. You wouldn't exactly play bumping funky crazy house now would you? :CrackUp::CrackUp::CrackUp:

Depends...cuz 18th of june at crobar Luke Fair opened for Sasha with his kinda house style and it was pretty cool even when Sasha hit hard trancy stuff afterwards.

Re:: A chance to open for Digweed

How anal do you think they will be about the time limit?

#226534Post 19 of 25

postmarked by the offical date is probably a pretty hard limit..

heck, the contest has been out for 2 months now, so i dont think they will have too much sympathy

Re:: A chance to open for Digweed

nice contest, there are a lot of good djs out there, but unfortunately its only for us rezidents. too bad, because in eastern europe and asia there are good djs ready to be discovered but they cant promote themselfs :)

#226654Post 21 of 25
