The creators of Jeans for Justice, Consciously Social, introduce a new event in similar style. Battle in the Mix is a cut-throat deejay competition with a philanthropic soft side. That’s right—the dirtiest remix scores sound benevolence.

The battle:

An exclusive entourage of San Diego’s top DJs will perform original tracks amid music industry piers and a panel of 5 select judges. Guest host, DJ Artistic, will manage the mayhem as the conscientious contest proceeds. Each contestant spins in an allotted segment of 15-20 minutes with the options to include live music accompaniment, digital art, dancers, and visual effects. In the name of spontaneity, creativity, and above-all altruism, Battle in the Mix deejays will heat up the turntables for a one-of-a-kind interactive performance.

Battle backdrop:

Guests and guest DJs will bounce backstage to remix tracks and original hits from local pop sensation Miz Mandy, with performances by Asis Soares, Positive Energy Dance, The Shimmy Sisters, and Dominant Soul Dance. Additional entertainment includes screenings from spotlight charity, Invisible Children, and live art interpretations.

The cause:

Invisible Children is a San Diego based non-profit organization launched following the successful debut of “Invisible Children: Rough Cut,” a documentary unveiling the effects of war on child soldiers in Northern Uganda. Dedicated to discovering financial resources for invisible children by documenting their everyday realities in relevant, creative mediums, Invisible Children utilizes modern media in honorable fashion. Battle in the Mix proceeds will benefit Invisible Children’s fight for global awareness and social action.   

The prize:

The winning DJ of Battle in the Mix is awarded with publicity, media opportunities, various sponsor prizes, straight-cash, and the chance to produce a Miz Mandy remix track on the upcoming album. 

Tickets for this Consciously Social charity event will sell out. Grab your tickets and head to Aubergine July 1^st at 8:00pm. Battle begins at 8:30pm.
