How to keep the beats flowing
- BPM Range: Let’s keep the energy flowing! Please ensure your sets are within the 120 BPM and 128 BPM range.
- Set Duration: Every DJ is set to perform for 1hr and 30min.
- Building the Atmosphere: We encourage DJs to build their sets progressively. Let the music evolve throughout the event to create an incredible journey for everyone.
- DJ sets: KOKOH, the primary resident DJ, marks the start and close of every DJ set.
- Opening Acts: We advise opening with music that creates a relaxed and inviting atmosphere as people arrive. Choose tracks that encourage conversation and create a welcoming vibe. Deep House, chill-out and lounge music are encouraged.
- Closing Act: Explore those heavier sounds and productions. This is the moment to amp things up and give our audience a fantastic send-off. KOKOH or Paulo Navarro usually performs it.
For our online DJ mixes (YouTube)
