Mixcloud teams up with DJcity UK & Speakerbox for a DJ competition

Mixcloud teamed up with DJcity UK and Speakerbox to offer UK DJs the chance to take a step further in their career by winning an opening set at a 2013 Speakerbox event.

SPEAKERBOX was established in 2009 by BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra’s MISTAJAM to help champion the hottest up and coming DJ, producer and vocalist talent alongside more established names. Since then SPEAKERBOX has grown to become one of the most exciting multi-genre live brands out there. Future confirmed Speakerbox plans include Europe wide shows, more UK Festival stages (WE R FSTVL, BOARDMASTERS and CREAMFIELDS 2013 have already been announced with more to follow), a national UK tour and a few more unique London Warehouse events. Coupled with releases from DECiBEL, MAJESTIC and LIAM BAILEY; the future is looking bright and busy for SPEAKERBOX.

DJcity is the industry provider of music to the professional DJ community.

The competition will run alongside “UK DJ Linkup”, a networking event for DJs to discuss music trends & new technology, swap gigs, and come up with new ideas and opportunities. You must RSVP at www.djcity.co.uk/djlinkup to receive your invitation for the event.
