A-TRAK ANNOUNCES FINALISTS FOR GOLDIE AWARDS


DJs & PRODUCERS SELECTED FROM OVER 300 ONLINE SUBMISSIONS FOR FIRST ANNUAL BATTLE

EVENT @ BROOKLYN STEEL (NYC) SEPT 7 - TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW HERE

When A-Trak first announced that he was organizing a new DJ & Beat Battle this year, the plan was to select 6 DJs and 6 producers from online submissions and fly them to New York for the event. However, after receiving over 300 videos and seeing the astounding level of these entries, he decided to bump the number of contestants up to 8 DJs and 8 producers. This selection includes a 13 year-old from New Zealand, three world champion DJs, a techno producer using analog gear, and they will be flying in from all corners of North America, Japan, Germany, Portugal, and more.
