DJing is a fascinating art. It’s pure poetry to the ears, the fine art of making the connection between records, tunes and beats.
Clubbing time!!! Vibes up!!! Mixing, phrasing, beat matching, sampling, equalizing, turntables playing vinyl records, scratching a stylus against vinyl, digital set-ups, all this beautiful machinery comes alive by incredible talented artists, the DJs. As orchestra conductors, DJs are fine musicians able to hypnotise dance floors across the globe through clever blends (transitions) and beat making skills. Their sacred mission is devoted to reading the crowd, keeping the energy up.
Dot can’t resist DJs gigs in the clubbing scene and meeting groovy disco mirror balls. It’s such an incredible experience to watch the lights respond to the beats, reflecting magical shimmering light in all different angles on the walls. The atmosphere evokes the sensation of a wonderful intergalactic light storm. There isn’t anything more vibrant, energetic than watching DJs performing behind the decks. There’s so much power in the synergy between a moving dance floor and the DJ’s art of mixing music. It’s pure magic glowing with excitement. If you’re definitely looking for great fun and to increase your vibe, just walk through an active dance floor, let the music beats fill your soul and step into dance. However, if you do not want to keep your feet moving, just listen to outstanding music mixed harmonically.
When Dot goes clubbing, it can’t avoid falling in love with DJs sets and with the glittering kaleidoscope of lights and beats dancing frenetically and flickering on the ceiling. This rich blend of the finest beats and lights brings out your best energy. Once the vibe hits you, get ready to be on cloud nine, dance floors don’t stop until 6am and you will not leave until the party’s done.
An epic and impressive performance of the brilliant Brazilian DJ Marky, with his phenomenal skills, is when he plays a supreme selection of the finest drum & bass vibrations while weaving across a pair of turntables, one of which he mixes whilst holding it like playing a violin, hauled up onto his shoulder. One lucky enough to watch him playing the turntable will witness a scene of indescribable beauty of a musician totally devoted to his musical instrument.
Another legend is Mr Scruff, the eclectic DJ, who loves tea and is always ready for a cuppa to sustain him through marathon sets of up to six hours. Scruff ingeniously connects playful cartoons to his music, exploring everything from jazz to soul to funk. What a lovely and perfect brew: tea extraordinaire, cartoonist and beat-maker. Well known for doing all the artwork on his music videos, albums and merch, the funny cartoons are drawn by himself in what he defines as “potato style”. The animations are projected onto screens during his gigs - such a wonderful ingenious combination.

Get ready to enter into the spirit of joy within a playful dimension, where beats will make you completely lose track of time. That’s the perfect mode for a night out partying until after sunrise.

Mission accomplished for Mr. DJ: the sparkling glitter ball realised it couldn't live without the beat of the music !!!
