It’s murder on the dance floor... The DJ Academy is proud to present NU BLOOD, a club night with a difference, organised and promoted by some of Cardiff’s most passionate new DJs.
Nine young music-lovers decided to learn how to DJ, joining the Cardiff branch of the DJ Academy Organisation, nominated for Best DJ Course 2005-6. Overseen by co-director Andy King, the course was taught by leading house DJ Matt Johnson and record-breaking six deck mixer DJ Trixta.
It was a baptism of fire for many of the students who were completely new to the art and science of mixing records. Over the eight week evening course they had to get to grips with the equipment from scratch, learn about sound levels, cueing tracks, beat matching and programming a set. They also received guidance on how to plan their own club night and are now ramping up for their first group effort at Cardiff’s Clwb Ifor Bach.
NU BLOOD is the first opportunity for many of these DJs to share their passion for dance music with a live audience as they take their turns with a thirty minute set. There will be a wide spectrum of musical styles on offer, from hardstyle to electro house, techno and drum ‘n’ bass – something for everyone. It'll be an electric night as they shake up the dance-floor with the dirtiest dance tunes past and present!
