Step 4: Selection: In selected Regions of the country, artists compete on stage for prizing and advancement. Judge selections, along with the most popular artist on the website receive entry to their Regional Battle*
Judging is based on three criteria: 1) Originality 2) Strength of Performance 3) Overall Potential
All Artists are encouraged to continue getting votes throughout the year, as they count towards general site rankings and additional Wild Card prizing opportunities. Regional Battles and National Finale may have a Wild Card selection added by the judges. Not every Battle will include a Wild Card selection, but the overall site leader in each Region will get an invite to compete live. Wild Cards are chosen at the judges' discretion in order to balance competition format when spots are available, and to offer additional prizing opportunities to competing DJs.
In addition to awesome exposure, winning artists also take home incredible prizes. Prizes to be announced each season.
All votes are subject to qualification and review, to ensure legitimate voting. We reserve the right to disqualify any artist where, in our sole discretion, we believe cheating was involved.
For the judge selections, music industry professionals along with the show producers choose three or more artists to compete in each Regional Battle.
