Attention, Miami DJs!
Do you think you might have what it takes to play with the likes of Benny Benassi, Diplo, and R3hab? Can you read a crowd, turn ’em out and have them going gaga for some paint to the face?
Well, get to steppin’, because Miami’s Life in Color (formerly Dayglow) is giving you exactly that chance, and all you’ve got to do is record the best 15-minute mix of your life. Easy.

Make sure you name your file “LIFE IN COLOR MIX (w/ CITY NAME & DATE),” and y’know, make sure you bring that heat.
“I expect people to either do quick mixes and show their technical skills, drop some originals or show off their original mashups so it would stand out amongst all the other mixes,” LIC owner Paul Cambell tells Crossfade. “Just being creative and fun should do the job.”
