CUBA’S YOUNG DJ COMPETITION
RADIO TAINO’S MUSICDOS 2018
Cuba’s Radio Taino radio station and the British Council Cuba are accepting samples from eligible DJ’s for Cuba’s DJ’s MusicDos 2018 competition. The second year of this competition, which is dedicated to propelling the career of the winning young DJ, requires contestants to prepare a mix which includes a fusion of underground music from the UK, and Cuban music that is at lease forty years old.
The winning DJ will perform live at the Arte en la Rampa summer festival in September, and the event will be retransmitted on Radio Taino’s “The Selector-Cuba Tonight” program, and the winning sample will be featured on The Selector in the UK. One more reason to visit Cuba this summer from the United States on a people-to-people tour.
Music samples up to 10 minutes will be accepted at the Radio Taino offices at the Cuban Radio and Television Institute building in Havana’s Vedado neighborhood on 23rd Street between L & M Avenues. Hours are 10am and 3pm, on mp3 format until August 20th, 2018.
