Campus DJ Set To Crown Nation’s Top College DJ at Avalon Hollywood

June 18, 2013 – Santa Monica, CA – The stage is set for the final battle in Campus DJ‘s nationwide search to find the best college DJ in America! The National Finale will be held in Los Angeles this Thursday, June 20th at the historic Avalon Hollywood, kicking off at 8pm. This year’s winning Campus DJ will be awarded a 4-door 2013 MINI Cooper S Countryman and a touring package with Live Nation, and additional prizing from Dubbler, Chegg, Jabra, and Monster Energy.

“While there are other DJ competitions, this is the only one fueled exclusively by college DJs,” co-founder Evan Shapiro said. “We’re lucky to have great sponsors and prizes to support and help roll out the first-ever events!”

The National Finale event will feature special guest headlining performance from pop music producer The Cataracs, who also attended college at SFSU early in his music career. The Cataracs recently collaborated with highly-acclaimed EDM DJ Martin Solveig on their hit single ‘Hey Now’ feat. Kyle. View the official music video below.

Attendees can also expect a performance from Columbia Records ‘hip-pop’ star T.Mills, along with other surprise special guests. The Cataracs and T.Mills will also serve as judges for the final competition round, along with an all-star judging panel including: Ken Jordan, one half of legendary music duo Crystal Method, Playboy Playmate Amanda Cerny of Dirty Dutch and EpicEDM host, EDM innovator DJ Reid Speed, and Damon Ranger, Academy Award-winning songwriter (“Life of Pi”) and multiple Emmy Award winner. The event will be co-hosted by college-favorite hypema Flula Borg and DJ/personality host MICK (formerly known as Mick Boogie).

Eight local Campus DJ battle winners along with a Wild Card winner will all compete on the big stage at Avalon. The finalists include:

Atlanta, GA: DJ Courtney (Emory University)
New York, NY: Flaxo (Columbia University)
Austin, TX: Teddy Chang (Texas State University)
Tempe, AZ: DJ Munition (Arizona State University)
Chicago, IL: DJNT (Columbia College)
Eugene, OR: DJ Caraya (Oregon State University)
Los Angeles, CA: Alexbustamove (UCLA)
Pleasant Hill, CA: DJ Crank (Diablo Valley College)

Plus three national Wild Card contestants, Sokko (University of Oregon), Brostradamus (Rutgers University), and DJ +One, formerly known as DJ Smoltz (Michigan State University) will face off in a Wild Card round to open the event, with one of these DJs advancing to the main competition round.

In addition to winning the Grand Prize, the National Champion will also get their very own filter featured on the Dubbler app. The filter will be named after the winning DJ and consist of an original track created by the Campus DJ Champion.

This year’s top Campus DJs and guest headliners will all be Spinning for a Cause at the National Finale. On behalf of the winning Campus DJ, and the event headliners, a cash donation will be made to the winning’s DJ’s preference of four pre-selected charities by Chegg for Good, along with event ticket sale proceeds, on sale now for $10 at www. collegebattle.com through Tunestub / Electrostub. The Spinning for a Cause initiative is presented by partners Chegg for Good, Music for Good, and Electronic Music Alliance’s Play it FWD.
