This year’s UK heats are done and dusted; the finalists travelled to Islington Academy on 17th July for the DMC UK DJ Championships and after a hard fought competition, DJ Skully was crowned the winner. Placing first in the competition means Skully is now set to represent UK turntablism in the solo DJ category and will compete against the cream of the global DJ crop at this year’s competition. Check out our review of the DMC UK DJ Championships. Representing the UK in the Battle for Supremacy - a head to head scratch battle of wits, techniques and braggadocious ability - is DJ Switch. This young turntable wizard has stood up to the competition and emerged victorious for 3 years in a row now, retaining his dextrous deck dominance since 2006. Needless to say we’re expecting big things from him this September! Contestants have just six minutes to do their impeccably choreographed thing, with DJs in recent years reaching way outside of conventional hip hop and featuring rock, house, drum and bass and folk in their complex, cut-up routines. We have two weekend passes up for grabs. To be in with a chance of winning, please answer the following question: Who will be representing the UK in this year's DMC World Championships? A) DJ Skully B) DJ Switch C) Killa Kela Send entries to competition@seatwave.com. Related Links itunes website Sign up for the Seatwave newsletter for your chance to win free gig tickets.
