DJs keen to see all the latest DJ technologies should head to this
year’s PLASA Show, which runs for four full-on days at Earls
Court 1 in London, from 11-14 September. Both show floors will be
packed with the hottest DJ gear - everything from the smartest decks
to top-of-the-range mixers.
Denon, Numark, Pioneer, Stanton and Vestax will be just some of
the big-name brands at the Show, and a key part of the 300-strong
line up of exhibitors showcasing current trends in lighting, sound,
AV and multi-media technologies.
DJ Sunday, sponsored by iDJ magazine, will get the show off to a
flying start with numerous events, giveaways and on-stand demos
by top-name DJs. In the DJ Lounge (at the back of the hall), you
can watch the winners of iDJ Magazine’s monthly Raw Talent
competition and there’ll also be an opportunity to take your
first steps into music production with a Talkzone presented by the
Academy of Contemporary Music, where you’ll be able to question
some top industry names. You’ll also get the chance to meet
with A&R experts from some of the leading record labels, including
Defected, Azuli, Bedrock and Underwater who will be happy to offer
feedback on your demos. If they’re good enough, you may even
find yourself being signed up to one of the labels!
Alternatively, you can enter the Gemini ‘Extreme V’
DJ competition and pitch your talents against other DJs from across
Europe, or head for the on-site record fair, a new feature for 2005,
where you can add to your vinyl and CD collections.
Plus, in the main seminar theatre, there’ll be two DJ-dedicated
workshops that will be all about being creative with the technology.
The first - Digital Turntablism and Mixing - will look at the virtual
DJ studio, the advance of MP3 and the future of vinyl emulation,
whilst the second - The Future of the DVJ and Vision Mixing –
will look at the advances in mixing and effects processing, together
with the latest software releases designed to extend the art of
the VJ.
So whatever you want to achieve through your DJ’ing, PLASA
2005 will give you the chance to pick up loads of tips and techniques,
try out all the latest kit all under one roof and maybe open doors
to a new career.
