I think if it's anything like American Idol, they'll prob be given challenges weekly, maybe a different genre with every challenge? It has the potential to be an awesome show with the history of the genre on each episode to introduce and educate the viewer to different sounds. I don't see this happening though, I'm sure it will all be garbage.

I'd give my right arm to see Derrick May bitching them all out on camera for bastardising electronic music, complete with the bitchslapping of Simon Cowell. I can see him doing it too, brotha don't fuck around when it comes to their lifelong labour of love. I'm sure any respectable dj would be insulted to be invited to be on this show.

edit: I could see Junior Vasquez participating though.

Throw Zabs in there, those kids will go home crying

Throw any dmc champ than zab would cry...

I could see some Ean Golden type stuff working, but the field would be soooo small and even then it would get boring pretty quickly, and I don't consider this good DJing as apposed to a music geekfest that 99% of viewers wouldn't get.

This is exactly what I was going to say.

I´m looking forward to trying out for this and show my skills to Simon. I am also anxious to hear his insults...

This is gonna end up 3 kinds of performances:

1) MPC based producers (Araab Muzik, Jeremy Ellis, etc)
2) Hip Hop style turntablists
3) Cutaways of people trainwrecking

That's if it even makes it past the pilot...
