inbound presents the future forces -final edition feat the upbeats! fri aug 7

hello massive

yes we are having a drum and bass dj comp - for up n coming djs

cut a long story short theres 3 heats - may 22 , june 12 , june 19 , then a final june 26

each heat has 6 djs - 30 mins each

this will be a 2 roomed event each show!!



first show friday may 22-

feat outside soho garden - dnb comp then dubsteppers


inside - way of the samurai lp launch

feat : dj presha (new zealand)

plus local dubstep and dnb selectah's



anyway if u would like to enter the comp u need to drop a cd into inbound by april 30 with ur mix / dj name / phone number and email adress.

please note there are 18 spots in the comp - we will listen to all cd's and choose the 18 contestants . im certain we will have way more than 18 entries.

there are prizes including a top spot at a forthcoming inbound show.

more info soon - ill post it , just needed to annouce this bizzo so crew could get cds in on time!

presha droppin the freshness. excellent

Nice, when was the last time Presha was here?

Definately sending in a mix cd.

Been mixing at home for a year and a half now, and would really like to see how I rate...

Even if I don't make it to the 18, some feedback would be great (if your not giving feedback on the mix cds, I'm sure a few beers will persuade you  )

seiously its hard to remember maybe 2001/02 at cargo

when he replaced digital?

thats going back a while... will be good to see him again, he has been delivering the goods pretty consistently on his radio show...

yeah the last time we brought him over was when shake ur body was big . i remember him playing the dub plate of it.

he played at downtown/earth one night as well

yeah there was that ultraworld thing i reckon .

fucking keen as samurai is killing it at the moment the album will definetly be 1 of the stand outs for the year

Managed to figure out my computers sound recording input

Should have a mix done this week.

in

very interesting
alltho, of course this means there is a possibility of me dragging me ass out.. hahaha.

CD is inbound!!!

get it....

what's the criteria for this lil comp?

I guess good mixing skills and play Liquid/rollerz style tunes..

I still need to work on my effing beat matching i reckon... but im sure its just my crap speakers being too hard to monitor with.

I reckon next time I record it ill have it cranking so I can hear it better

give us a cd - no cd no entry

then we will choose our top 18 to go into the heats

one thing to think about is the winner will play at an inbound show at a good slot

theres other prizes aswell i need to finalise em with filter today

and bumping other DJs off decks


good luck to all the contestants, inbound nights are an honour to play at!

 

 Don't forget swinging off Dillinjas nuts

 

 

just to give u an idea

the only judges for this are myself and filter

every week and for the finals

wow thats amazing.. i hope they turn up every week hahaha

yeah like we wouldnt go to our own shows

can i enter?? 

Lookin forward to this..........

Thats right! I was stoked when I got a chance to play along side the boys. Had the best times at the Inbound shows. Good luck to all competing!

Massive big ups Fiction & Filter!! DJ comps are awesome & i was thinking we were about due for another 1 

Its good to pump some more life into the scene and i hope u get lots of entries!!! 

no

just for the record - if ur wondering if ur eligible just hit us up. we are pretty much taking it on a case by case basis. its hard to say whos more exprerienced and who is up n coming etc.

if uve played at inbound already , at our sceptre shows or an international gig u pretty much wont be in. but theres lots of crew out there who havent played yet that we may consider for the comp..

the cd's are coming in now too, theres some wicked mixes in already. this is going to be a tight comp i reckon!

dropped mine in the other day, hope it sounds aiite.

what about me? ive barely mixed in the past 18 months?

not sure about u khem uve been doing it for years.

Sounds great guys, it will be good to come along and check out some fresh talent for future consideration for shows.
Large ups inbound crew!

i'll be down if i can get hold of another deck to put down a mix... mine just shat itself last week. Spew!!

Who wants lend me a turntable? 

 

i'm shooting down your way tomorrow. was just about to sms ya

seems to be the time for stuff shitting itself.
my trusty pc died  on sunday after about 3 years of constantly being on = no recording lol

we will announce the prizes very soon just waiting to confirm a couple of things

all contestants in the comp will get 2 drink cards at the show they are playing at plus 2 names on the door at the same show..

the final on july 26 will be the 3 winners of each round plus a judges choice - so 4 djs in the final

2nd place $100 store voucher for inbound 34 wyatt street


we have had a few more cds come in today- keep firing em in.

they're awesome prizes

being one of the 18 djs would be wicked enough as it is, let alone those prizes.

great idea guys, may have to dig up some tunes and start recording, way to make the up comers nervous

Nice effort on the prizes guys!!! (wish i could enter  )

Ill come check out the heats for sure!

im working on 2 special guests for the june 12 / june 19 heats

i heard a bit of one of the entries today...quality stuff. this is gonna be a great comp

going to be tighter than what people are thinking

got another 3 cds today

big ups

will drop mine in probably friday night boys 

dont entries have to be in by the 30th?

I would've thought you'd be ineligible anyway Rumble? You put on/played at Nymfo or something wasn't it? Plus you're on Resonation pretty regularly...it's up to the boys I guess.

Will try to get something new done by friday. But still havnt got my shit sorted out. Might have to bring in an old chop mix.
Fuck my mouth is hurting./ just got 4 wizdom teeth out last night.

make sure there here by friday then otherwise we will get angry

You wouldnt like the Sarge when hes angry!!

might hafta bring mine in friday too if thats ok... havent done shit yet...

... but i do have another deck now so i just gotta get my lazy arse into gear! 

dubstep at an inbound nice. might expose some more crew to it. large ups lads 

Last day for cds!

When will the lucky 18 be announced?

next week some time we will announce the line up

been some cats comin out from the woodwork with cd's - enjoying the listen as i type.


also we had to change the prize of playing at the inbound 11th birthday (july 4 feat state of mind) as one of the dates had to be changed at soho bar.

so know the heats are

may 22 feat dj presha (nz)

june 19 feat consequence (nz / melb ) just signed to darkestral and exit recordings

june 26 more info soon

then the final will be friday july 24 (4 finalists 45 min sets)

we will get the winner to play at one of our future shows - not sure yet but we will make it a good one!!

so the prizes are:

first place - $200 store voucher for inbound,  a gig at a future inbound party (tbc)
plus also added thanks to hq complex a double pass to groove on new yrs day 2010

second place - $100 store voucher for inbound.

lookin forwrd to the fresh styles for the comp., be nice to catch up with geoff on the 22nd too. a busy month ahead !!

well done crew we have nearly 30 cds to listen 2 this week.

we will hopefully have the 18 djs announced on friday!!

This shall be a stormer, nice to see the Inbound guys really supporting the dubstep as well with this. DnB & Dubstep are 2 peas in a pod. Like it or not. We're all addicted to Bass & Phat Breaks. 

we should have the 18 selected djs by early next week... its hard work sorting out these cds

very true i just posted this in the dubstep thread.


i think its a great thing that inbound is having dubstep at its dj comp heats and final. alot of peeps reach inbound parties good exposure for the music in this city. large ups to the inbound boys.

whats the cover charge tonight? got a few peeps interested

$12 before 11 $18 after

Lets fucking have it people! get ya dancing shoes ready (glow sticks and gators optional). Yours truelly is on first. Ill try and keep it toned down a bit. But you know me. My chop senses are telling me otherwise.

SeEkizmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

had a mad night big ups to the 4 finalists!.. good to catch up with the crew again! memory is a bit patchy towards the end of the night tho haha

Great night and proof of the passion Adelaide has for dnb. I enjoyed all the finalists' sets and The Upbeats were nice too. I can't say that I stayed at any set long enough, or listened closely enough to pick a clear winner. We have some good talent though, that's for sure.

Big ups to everyone involved from the djs, to the friends and supporters, and big ups to Inbound.

Who won?

top show. good work boys

good fun night again, thanks for having me lads.
drank too much again 

comp was looking good from the bits i caught of the DJs sets, crowd seemed to be enjoying them all.

Think Counterpart was the stand out in the dubstep room. I did actually have a shocker of a set myself, it was kinda funny in the end.

Good luck to all contestants who were in the comp. I managed to check a couple out and enjoyed a bit of the Upbeats too. Seek's mixing was tight, and but I didn't really catch much of anyone else, but who ever played after him had the crowd screaming and shit, so must have been wicked.

Inbound representing the flavours of breaks large last night. Maximum Respect to Fiction & Filter. The 2 F's - fuckin fenominal =)

Thanks again to the boys for putting this on!

Had a ball up there again, everyone played really well. certainly was a learning experience having never really stepped up behind decks out live before.


 

Bigupz to the inbound  crue. You really did well with this comp. Had a lot of people at all of them. With crews like this in Adelaide i really cant see the scene getting stale anytime soon. Up most respect!

I get extra points for that right??

Cheers for all support from everyone. I had a ball. All sets were great. The stand out for me was Mikey's set though. Tight as mixing. Would have been my pick for sure.

Looking forward to seeing Klute no matter the outcome of the comp. Bigupz

Peace, SeEKoNCe the almighty ravenous claw.

awesome night i had a blast on the ol' 1s and 2s. the butterflies were in full effect but it was a sick buzz nonetheless! big up inbound and the other lads in the comp, this little town has some very serious talent.

ALL the people playing tunes were the standout for that night, for me anyway...
special respect to seek and desh for their sets in the comp, enjoyable to hear !!
Was a great night to kick back and relax with some of the crew there...the next installment (at Klute) will be extra fun seems that people are warming to the mid-tempo grooves of dubstep... Thanks to all the people for their support and love of bass music in general... Respect to Inbound 

had a top night. as far as the comp goes i only saw desh, i thought he did really well. upbeats smashed it, standard.

simmo any chance you can upload the comp sets? would be keen on hearing them.

nope

im listening to them right now

and the winner is ??

we will be back after these messages
