DJONE The DMC Competition for Electronic Music
DJs have become like pop stars in the music industry, but are they real artists? Is a DJ controller actually an instrument, or just a playback tool? The Sample Music Festival will address these questions by hosting an electronic music DMC DJ championship for the first time.
DMC was founded in 1985 and soon established itself as the largest DJ organization in the world with headquarters in the UK, USA and branches in over 30 countries.
The DMC has been known for turntablism and hip hop battles, but now they're branching out with DJONE - the electronic music version in colaboration with our esteemed partners.
