Other contest sponsors include: Mansion, 4theDJ.net, International DJ Expo, Masterbeat.com, and RockBandsFashion.com. To date, close to 100 aspiring DJs have registered to compete, and thousands of electronic dance music (EDM) fans throughout North America have logged-on to vote. The semi-finalists in the first four weeks of competition were: Miami’s Leonardo Del Toro, Miami’s Karbokane, New York’s Andrew Salsano and Vancouver’s G3N3R4L. The eight-week contest is a part of Whet Travel’s and WebCeleb’s effort to discover and support local talent by helping to promote aspiring DJs.
Said Whet Travel’s president, Jason Beukema, “Each week we receive requests from several DJs who want to play onboard the Groove Cruise. WebCeleb’s online voting system has been a perfect fit for what we were trying to do to find up-and-coming DJs for our Groove Cruises. It’s exciting to see the competition escalate week-by-week. We hope to help aspiring DJs get their music heard and potentially have that exposure result in media coverage, a record deal, and ultimately, more bookings.”
