2009 IDA Australasian DJ Championships

The ITF DJ Battle was founded in 1996 to highlight and categorise different skills the DJs had. Past world champs include Babu, Craze, Infamous, I-Emerge, A Track, Woody, Tigerstyle, and Rafik. Past team champs include X-Ecutioners, Beat Junkies, Allies, and Invisibl Skratch Piklz (Q Bert, Mix Master Mike, and Shortkut). In 2006 all chapters across the globe decided the need for a change with new formats and new rules and hence the changes.

ITF chapters have changed to IDA (International DJ Association). The competitors will have 2 minute rounds each going head to head working their way up to the final round battling for the title “2009 IDA Australasian DJ Champion” and to represent at the world finals in Krakow, Poland on 12th Dec 2009. In the same format as last year, we are opening our doors to our asian neighbours for an exclusive invitational battle with only 1 wildcard entry.

To enter simply submit a video of yourself (eg. youtube link) to dj.raw@clear.net.nz, pause3@gmail.com, or info@idaaustralia.com

The battle will take place on Saturday 28th November at Zen, Auckland New Zealand. This will be the first year the Australasian DJ Championships is held in New Zealand and is looking to be quite a showdown with Australia and New Zealand's Heavyweights Battling Head to Head for the title and prizes to the value of $7,000.00
