Winter Music Conference and VRJAM Announce Showcase Contest for DJs and Music Producers
VRJAM, WMC and EDM.com have joined forces to offer DJs and producers the chance to secure a coveted showcase at the summit’s first-ever virtual edition.
Ahead of the first-ever virtual edition of Winter Music Conference, the organizers of the world-renowned electronic music summit have announced a one-of-a-kind contest for DJs and producers.
In partnership with VRJAM and EDM.com, WMC has launched a competition for artists to secure a coveted showcase at the virtual convention, which will go down on May 20th and 21st. The “New Music Showcase” will be fleshed out live over the course of both days via VRJAM’s cutting-edge content platform and immersive VR music venue, 5th Dimension, as well as on Twitch.
The contest will be open to both unheralded and established artists regardless of their size. Competing artists must be able to perform a live 30-minute DJ set consisting of original, unlicensed music, including remixes. In addition to the WMCV showcase, four DJs will be selected from the showcase entrant pool to perform at a special virtual event hosted DJ Mag on Thursday, May 20th.
