All I can say was as usual the standard of DJing at the second round of HotBox was exceptional. There was a lot of new talent on the decks, DJ’s showing us their stuff. Thanks for all the DJ’s that took part, you all played really well and the decision, when it came to adding up the scores, was marginal with only a few points separating the top 5 DJ’s!!

BUT…we do have 3 winners going thru to play in the final on the 23rd of September! And they are :


Concept,
Rustic Groove and
DirtyLittleFunker

Also the winner from the wild card playoff was decided by the crowd that was there on the night! Roland London and John Kirven went head to head battling it out for 30mins each. Both sets were incredible! The DJ joining the 3 DJ’s above and the 3 winners from the 1st round (Andy Boph, Little Jo and Amy Taylor) in the final is :

John Kirven!
Well done guys! From this Heat there will be a playoff at Heat 3 between the 2 DJ’s clocking up the most online votes. Online voting will open soon, so DJ’s that took part watch this space! This gives people that where there the chance to vote for your favorite DJ and all the DJ’s that played another stab at playing in the final!

Don’t forget the next heat of the HotBox on August BANK HOLIDAY SUNDAY! … all I can say is make sure you arrive early because the line up is huge and it’s going to be rammed! You will not want to miss any more of the HotBox action!

More details, info, photo’s, interviews with the winners, online voting and DJ mixes coming SOON!

Thanks for 2 all the DJ's that took part, thanks for all those that made the trip down to support them, thanks to the judges, thanks 2 Illicit Audio for hosting the main room, and thanks to the Whitehouse staff for putting up with 300 up for it clubbers on a Sunday!

Really high standard, well done to all the DJ's. Can't wait to join in next time.....
