Blogcritics The critical lens on today's culture & entertainment
If you’re in London, this sounds like a pretty cool idea for DJs and the musically curious alike:
- The concept’s pretty simple, really – it’s a digital music DJ club, people show up, sign in and get 15-minutes to play their favourite songs, people can also sign up to be judges, and we have managed to get great prizes together so far. Admission is free and the drinks are cheap.
