The 2008 DMC Technics World DJ Championships, the most prestigious DJ competition, is getting underway all over the world and now it’s made its way to Singapore!
It has produced some of the biggest names in hip hop today, including Cash Money, DJ Craze, Q-bert and A-Trak, not forgetting local heroes like Andrew Chow, Rough, Koflow, Rattle and Inquisitive. An art form based on just 2 turntables, a mixer, and creativity, contestants will battle it out for the coveted crown and prizes. The National champion stands to win prizes from Panasonic and Technics, TDK Life on Record, Ortofon, Crumpler and Carhartt worth up to $3,500.
Clash The Disko Kids (CTDK) is a Singapore electro-techno-house duo consisting of DJ Kurt and Weili. Together as Clash The Disko Kids, they have been formidable on the dance floors as Singapore’s most popular electronic group. With over 15 years turntable experience between them, and a blatant disregard for music genres, they are known for incorporating a strong rock influence into their sets and image.
A CTDK set is like one big lesson in the history of electronic music in one night! You can only expect a mural of sounds when CTDK go behind the decks. Out of nowhere, the duo seemed to have emerged out of the concrete jungle and reinvented the clubbing landscape in Singapore, putting their own sick twists towards music such as adding samples, accapellas and sound fx to their DJ sets and just about everything around it to put smiles on the clubbers’ faces and hands in the air. The result is something really quite exciting and definitely very refreshing!
