"DJs are the new rock stars, it feels like the right time to make this show,"

he did such a good job of finding all those new rockstars he found, probably for the best that he makes this reality tv show rather than actually doing something positive and beneficial for the music scene, instead of just consistently raping it

Who's going to want to watch someone bang out an hour long mix?

They're going to be looking for someone suited for a gig/show rather then a club. Expect loads of neon, sun glasses, stupid hair cuts and day glo, trancey dubstep and drum & bass with loads of jumping up and down and people waving there hands in the air.

Is the audience going to be a dance floor?

[Perfecture]

There is only one way to see if this show is Shit or not and if they searching for true DJ skill......

get Dj Craze on there, if he loses, the show is a load of wank.

[test_recordings]

This is going to boil down to a DMC competition... TV show nothing to do with selection or blending talent...

I don't get the point of this?

Except it won't be.

The sort of kids who apply for this (sweeping generalisation here, so bear with me) won't be whacking out some awesome triple flipping 12" tricks. They'll just be doing fancy shit with traktor.

What the hell will this even be? Phenomenal rise of the DJ? All popular DJs just use Ableton dont they?

So will this be like listening to people mix (which is boring to watch 90% of the time) or some DMC turntablist shit?

And yes, im one of the few people who believes that DJing (as in, like a club DJ) isn't the godly art some people make it out to be. The truth is, someone like Kentaro is more skillful than, i dont know, whoever came fourth in this year's DSF awards.

edit : I think they are just looking for an electronic act. Probably.
edit2: Just read an article on the Telegraph about it. I reckon he is just looking for a producer. But still, how will this happen? They only have like 90 seconds on these audition shows. Confused as fuck, just have to see.

Kentaro's probably more skilled than whoever came 1st in the DSF awards! That guy got lethal fingers

Tiesto interview: 'Simon Cowell not capable of finding next big DJ'
Tiesto talking about the show and possibly being a judge.

Also talks some shit about DJs who just stand with their hands in the air, and he doesn't seem to like Guetta. I find the whole interview quite ironic. And apparently Digital Spy thinks electronic music has been around about 6 years.

What qualities make for a world-class DJ?
"They have to make great music and be a great producer. They have to know how to rock a crowd and have charisma and passion."

wat?

i didnt know to be a world class dj you had to produce
