The
SpinOut DJ Skool 2003
Our
mission: Spread
the good vibes!
The Idea
Find a group of
deserving keen music loving teenagers dreaming of life as a DJ and/or
an electronic musician, invite them to spend two weeks at the SpinOut
Lounge practising the art of mixing on decent equipment, lay on some
hands-on tutoring, provide assistance for transport, rope in everyone
you know to help out and hope it all ends the year of 2003 on a high
note.
The
Students
We had over 200
applications and it was really difficult not to accommodate everyone
however we made a plan and accepted 70 people, of which 55 have registered.
We split them up into three groups for Hands On sessions, and have
group sessions every Saturday, where we have formal presentations
and workshops.
Here is the Student List.
The
Course
It runs over two
weeks from December the 6th. Here is the time
