Competition Success
A DJ contest was held back in April in order to win a series of prizes including a slot at the Festival. Over 1000 submissions were submitted and with the help of Mauro and his team, the most outstanding mixes were picked. Mauro explains “It’s important to see who has the most charisma on stage.” Mauro also explains how the unique styles of the competition winners had put them in to the spotlight. “I can feel the power of the South American drums on Yerko Alejandro’s track. It’s clear he is not European. Marco Ferrantelli was very creative in making a sexy, groovy track that mixed House and Techno without being cheesy. And Enrico Sangiuliano is a perfectionist, whose track has an amazing build-up with lots of subtle details.” With the competition winners earning a slot at this years hottest festival, we hope to see more of them in the future.
Ciao ’til Alchemy.
