Due to some unfortunate events one of the contestants had to pull out of the semifinal, which resulted in 2 wild cards being added to the lineup. I was one of the lucky ones to be chosen. I found out last minute and didn’t have any time to prepare a set or practice mixing. I brought my laptop to work and during 2 of my breaks I picked out songs and made cue points and loops. That’s the beauty of spinning with Serato! The set went well, I liked it better than my first one. I managed to squeeze in 28 tracks in the 15 minutes. Out of the 10 contestants that night, only 4 would advance to the final. Even though I didn’t make the cut, I am still thankful that I even had the opportunity to play in the semifinal as a wild card. Here is the full video recording of my set:

I entered a dj battle here in Santa Barbara a couple of weeks back. We got 15 minutes to show what we can do. I mixed 24 bmore, fidget, and electro tracks in the 15 minutes. There were approximately 15 dj’s on the lineup that night and 3 prelims all together. The top 3 from each of the 3 prelims were going to advance to the semifinal and the top 4 from that round make it to the finals. A lot was at stake at this competition: 2 headlining gigs at 2 of of Santa Barbara’s most popular nightclubs, free bottle service at both clubs, free gear from CRSVR, a good chunk of $$$, and more! Sadly my set wasn’t good enough to make it into the top 3 that night. Here’s the video:

Tracklist:
01. Bel Biv Devoe – Poison (Alvaro & Punish Remix)
02. Pharcyde – Passin Me By (DJ Gusto Remix)
