Hey what's up everybody? Been a loongg time since I've been on the boards here but I'm reaching out to see if any fellow TAs might be willing to help me out.

I'm in a DJ contest to win a gig on "The Groove Cruise" out in Miami. The winner gets the opportunity to spin with Dirty South, Funkagenda, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and Darude to name a few. Needless to say, the opportunity is HUGE and could really use any help that I can get!

Currently I'm ranked #2 in the contest and any votes from you could put me into that #1 spot!


To vote all you need to do is:

1) Click the link:
The Groove Cruise

This link will take you to my mix titled "Play It LOUD" submitted by Varun Venugopalan


2) Vote by selecting the 5th Star


3) Tell All Your Friends!


4) Vote again each day! (You are allowed 1 vote per day now through Dec. 8th)


I put a lot of time and effort into the mix so I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for the support!

Are you the guy who played before Martin Roth and MIKE?

Think that'll help your cause if so....

Ya I was the one that played right before Martin Roth & M.I.K.E. on Halloween night at Circus. Were you there???

Yes, I was there.

You failed to show any knowledge of Martin Roth given your track selection as an OPENER and ... well, that alone is enough. Because i could go on.

Not trying to be disrespectful, but issues were very apparent that night. Especially in that crucial timeslot. But I don't necessarily blame you.

Welcome to TA. This place will test your will as a local DJ. So good luck. Don't take anything personal. We, not just I, can be pretty f'n evil sometimes. For a recent example, ask Max Vangeli.

ehh this wasn't a matter of testing anyones intelligence lol... I used to visit these boards regularly several years back under a different account but never really posted on the boards.

Obviously no one has to vote....I was just reaching out to ppl that were willing to acknowledge someone that is dedicated to succeeding in this industry. I'm fortunate to have enough people supporting me to have earned me the #2 spot. They know my passion for what I do and I don't want their efforts to go to waste. If you haven't heard my music, you can always check out the mix before voting. And if you haven't heard my name you will eventually....I'm dedicated to building one for myself in this industry. Not many people are willing to dedicate a year going to Digital Music Production school so this isn't just something I do as a hobby.


@DaveT Understandably if you felt my set was inconsiderate of the other DJs i apologize for that. I have a specific sound that I go for and since I've gotten back into the scene I stick to it. When I'm booked I am very clear of the style that I play...

All openers do, but the smarter ones (and veteran ones) fluctuate their style accordingly until they become the headliner.

I will just leave these here:

One of the reason I don't post on here anymore. People are so biased and judgmental. I thought it was all about the music? I understand people have their own taste and preference, but when people start bashing you for it, it becomes a problem.

Yes... people are capable of thoughts and opinions. As for taking offense, why??? It's the internet. Maybe some of the advise could be quite good.
