This is a great idea for a battle. I'll hopefully have time to give it a crack, never done mashes before at all, so anything I do = learn

Fuck alright whatever. I'll never go ever. Even if someone offered to fly me there and put my name on the door/cave entrance

yeah, your sense of adventure. imagine telling that story drunk 'i once bought a shitty fortress in the scottish isles and turned it into a techno superclub for shits and giggles' Yea that fucking story is only relevant to the owner Why would telling someone you want to a shitty building in the middle of a freezing swamp be a good story

lol @ smilie + avatar ^

I don't get why you would want to spend so much money doing up an antique shitty building in the middle of a swamp to host parties? Am I missing something?

Paris Hilton's message to all her haters is "my DJ skills attract Ibiza's top party crowd". The hotel heiress made a name for herself starring alongside Nicole Richie in reality TV show The Simple Life, but has gone on to numerous business ventures since. She's been working as a DJ in Ibiza since last year, and was snapped up to be a regular fixture for the 2014 season on the White Isle. "For all the haters out there who say I'm just pressing play, no I'm not. "The best party atmosphere comes from inviting the best people from around the island. I play the best tracks that bring out the most fun in people," Paris told British newspaper Daily Star. Paris labels Ibiza "the best place in the world" and her Foam & Diamonds night attracts thousands of party goers. After she's finished on the decks, Paris then turns her event into a foam party where revellers get soaked in foam as they dance the night away. "I've seen everything from the DJ booth. I get so many girls lift their tops up and guys take their pants down. People get crazy," she laughed. The laidback nature of the Spanish island suits the blonde star, and she particularly likes hanging out with tourists form the UK. "British clubbers have a wild time. Brits come to Ibiza and forget about their worries and just have a good time. "There's no pretentiousness and no judging anyone. I like that. I love people who are full of life and have fun," she enthused. Being hidden in the DJ booth doesn't mean the 33-year-old let's her glamorous image slide. Working in a male dominated career means Paris tries even harder with her style choices. "They have to be sparkly, sexy and fun. A lot of DJs don't dress up mainly because a lot of them are guys. It's nice to see a DJ being a bit girly as well. The girls love it, the boys love it," she said. Source

I just see munged cunts necking themselves off every corner.

OP edited to standard media release format.

I can work with any sounds you wanna send over.

Forbes Magazine recently reported on the “Electronic Cash Kings” of 2014 and the results—to many—were jaw dropping. That guy who throws cakes all the time netted $23 million, while that guy who eats cakes all the time netted $22 million. David Guetta? $30 million. Calvin Harris? A whopping $66 million. And here I thought all those $60 tickets and headlining slots were just going to charity. As a curious consumer, I was keen to learn what life was like for DJs on the other end of the spectrum. This year's lowest paid DJs are: 10. Retail and Restaurant DJs If you’ve ever been to a Guess, Cactus Club, Abercrombie, or TOPSHOP you’ve likely grooved along with number 10 on our list; the capitalist dogs on top of the local DJ shit list. Retail and restaurant DJs will often (but not always) be an off-duty store employee that totally has a residency and a Traktor S2. Playing one to four times a month and netting $250 to $500 per shift, what they lack in credibility they make up for in store credit. 9. Wedding DJs Wedding DJs came close to the top this year, citing the '90s generation as the reason for both their continued success and hatred of their jobs. Compared to Calvin Harris’ $300k per Vegas gig, wedding DJs took a more humble $500 to $750 per gig between Q1 and Q4 this fiscal year. We reached out to a prominent wedding DJ and he was eager to tell us that he “got a bridesmaid's number” in 2013, though she did not end up texting him back. 8. Resident DJs What they lack in per gig cash, they make up for in frequency of play. Established resident DJs were earning $150 to $300 plus five drink tickets and three free covers (before 11 PM) this past year. While no bonus dollars were awarded for playing “Tsunami” or “Trophies,” a ground-breaking THUMP study that is totally real found that resident DJs played each song once regardless of theme, set time, or day of the week. 7. Frat Party DJs Anyone who has attended college or been that kid with older friends has at some point danced in a frat DJ’s sweatbox and pretended to enjoy their trap remixes. Despite making less than wedding, retail and resident DJs, “freshman pussy and unlimited tequila shots” were the number one reason given by an overwhelming majority of frat party DJs when asked why they play for next to nothing. 6. Opening DJs 2014 has been great for electronic opening DJs, resulting in average annual incomes of $4800 (un-taxed). Opening DJs for hip-hop acts on the other hand are in increasingly worse positions, frequently agreeing to play for free in exchange for exposure. Driven largely by demand from promoters and ability to also sell tickets, there are more opening slots per week than ever before. It’s not unusual to see Hypem artists booked with up to six openers and a closing DJ, but these ambitious musicians aren’t letting that get in the way of their dreams for success. Kygo said he would 100% listen to an area DJ’s SoundCloud when he gets off tour. 5. Out-of-City DJs If you’ve ever seen an opening DJ set up a “mini tour” of two to three dates, you’ll be interested to know that beneath the thin, thin veneer of success lives a thick, oozing mass of lies. Multi-city mini tours trade off DJ fees immediately, resulting in $0 to $50 per gig for the ability to say that you played in San Diego and San Fran back-to-back dates. 4. One-Off Event DJs Forming the backbone of C-list nightclubs, one-off event DJs have continued to see significant losses in per gig and year over year earnings. In order to cut costs, these aspiring disk jockeys have quickly gone from low fees to commission pay to nothing at all. The next time you see a Facebook event for a full moon party at Republic (pretty sure there’s one of these in every city), don’t feel annoyed. Feel sad. 3. DJ Contest Entrants Entrants continue to enter DJ contests despite the fact that all of them (except the Red Bull Thre3style) are complete scams. Featuring a rotating lineup of Virtual DJ hopefuls, these performers bring their friends out to hear them play for 20 minutes. They will be judged on song choice (arbitrary), crowd reaction (how many people they bring out), technicality (because the GM is totally paying attention), and vibe. In exchange, they walk out with the potential to open for a DJ at another club for no money. 2. DJ First Name Last Initial If you decide to start DJing and go by DJ Matt P, DJ Steven C, DJ Tommy T, or DJ Fuckwad M, your net worth is jack shit. Please stop. 1. DJs Who Are Just Waiting For The Right Opportunity They bought Ableton, synths, a full CDJ 2000 setup, and their own Daft Punk helmet on their mom’s credit card, but they refuse to play a gig until it’s a headlining slot. These are the starry-eyed adolescents of the industry, and they’re just a couple of YouTube tutorials away from paying off the interest on their unnecessary purchases. Source

Potential chance of sudden sales between now and then?

I'd be interested in doing remixes or something, I'm not in melb but this is my thing. http://soundcloud.com/cupe

If you know Knife Party, you know to expect the unexpected. And thats just what we got as they took to twitter to announce that they will be releasing the first single “Resistance” from their impending album for free on Monday the 25th. If last weeks preview of “Boss Mode” (a trap infused glitch track) doesn’t show the duo’s musical diversity, maybe the fact that “there’s 12 other tracks on the album that sound nothing like it” proves that Swire & McGrillen have a lot up their sleeves with their debut album “Abandon Ship”; which we may see sooner than we thought. Stay tuned as we ready ourselves for the single and the long awaited album. https://soundcloud.com/robswire/knife-party-boss-mode-teaser Source

Deadmau5 Doesn’t Do Ice Bucket Challenge, Donates $10,000 Instead Deadmau5 without a doubt is one of the most outspoken EDM artists today. As many artists begin to take the #ALSIceBucketChallenge, Deadmau5 tweeted “Who knew dumping buckets of ice cured Lou Gehrig’s disease.” Instead Deadmau5 has decided to donate $10,000 to the ALS Association.

One of the industry’s most awesome media platforms just got even more awesome. Users will have two options when registering for a paid account: “Premium for listeners”, or “Pro for uploaders”. For listeners, a paid subscription will cost $7/month or $70/year. You will be able to access new features early, avoid advertisements, and receive a nifty badge on your account to let other users know that you’re a supporter. Pro for uploaders is a more comprehensive subscription. One month of this plan will cost $15 or $135 for a full year. This will also include access to new features, and a flashy “pro” badge. Additionally, pro members will have access to an advanced analytics report for uploads, scheduled uploads, the ability to disable commenting, and highlight features. Also new to mixcloud is the “repost” feature. Available to all users, and inspired by Twitter’s “retweet”, uploaders or listeners will be able to post other user’s mixes to their own mixcloud stream.

NOTE: I've made a change to the order of 'Submit/Preview/Save draft' in the full reply screen.

That's dope. They should sell custom ones after you send them a song.

I know Hamish and Andy used to use an Ugly Duckling track, not sure that it's what you're after though

Ok that _blank url target has now been fixed.
