RED BULL THREE STYLE






LOCAL DJ’S PROVE THEY CAN SPIN MORE THAN JUST CLUB MUSIC AND BATTLE IT OUT FOR RED BULL THRE3STYLE
Nashville’s Cannery Ballroom to Play Host as Eight Local DJs Fight for a Chance at Miami’s Winter Music Conference

WHAT: Red Bull Thre3Style isn’t your typical DJ battle. Eight of Nashville’s best and most requested DJs will have to prove they have the spinning skills and musical knowledge to be crowned the city’s best. Each hand selected contestant will have 15 minutes to mix three different genres of music and win over the judges and the crowd. Judged on song selections, creativity, skill, swagger, and audience reaction, each DJ will have to give their all to win this competition.

WHO: Headliner DJ, Rob Swift, is always challenging the idea of what Hip Hop is and testing that notion any chance he can get. Having got his start at age 12 from watching his father DJ meringue parties and older brother showing him the ropes, Rob pursued his love for music and joined the groundbreaking turntablist crew the X-ecutioners in 1991. On his new album The Architect, Rob takes Hip Hop and effortlessly blends it with the genre of Classical music.

Rob Swift will give a live DJ performance as well as join a panel of four other local judges who will score the contestants and ultimately choose who’s best. The winner of the Red Bull Thre3Style Nashville qualifier will advance to the regional finals to be held in Miami during Winter Music Conference. The winner of that final will advance to the U.S. finals in Denver later this year and the U.S. finals winner will earn the chance to compete in the International finals to be held in Paris, France.

The eight DJ’s are: Dorian, Wick-It, Mike Allison, Coach, DJ Crumbz, Cliffy D, ROBOT EARS, and Fan Fiction
