0:00 The longest consecutive mix by a group of DJs
Alright guys, if you don't know then where have you been for the past six months or in fact a year? But the BPM show is happening this weekend 2010 from the 2nd to the 4th of October in the NEC in Birmingham. Now what a lot of people are organising including myself is the world record attempt at beating... The longest consecutive mix by a group of DJs. In other words, what's going to happen? You have DJ 1 who will play track 1 and mix track 2 with track 1. And then you have another DJ who will then mix track 3 with track 2. You have another DJ that will mix track 4 with track 3. The idea is to beat the world record that is set at 83. Now we can do this. Now very quickly, prior to the Ellaskins channel being taken off, I made a video and asked for people to respond to that video. And hopefully then we'd have a whole bunch of DJs who could participate. But of course that's all gone now. So the only way of getting people to enter now is at the BPM show. Now the world record attempt will start at 11am in the morning and it's going to be, it's my piece of paper.
1:39 Would you like to play a part?
It's going to be in the organiser suite office 19.1 and 19.2. Now what we're going to do is we're going to have a couple of people, probably including myself, outside prior to the doors opening getting people to register. Now all you've got to do is you've got to be able to mix, that's it. You're going to be using Pioneer kit, Pioneer mixer, Gemini speakers and music from CDPool. You can key match, then you're in. Let's get you involved. Would you like to play a part? Would you like to have your name in lights? Because if you play a part, your name will be there along with all the other people that entered. Very simple. All you've got to do is register.
3:36 We'll have the Pioneer 350 series and we'll have rekordbox there as we
You do have to be over the age of 18, but you can participate if you're under the age of 18 if you come along with an adult and you have written permission from... If you want to adjudicate, you can come in for free. Not only that, we'll sort you out with teas and coffees and food. So in other words, you'll get in for free and you can just do stuff. You don't have to sit there all day, maybe one or two hours, and then you can go and, I don't know, do stuff in the show. So that is the Guinness World Record attempt. It's going to happen, and like I said, it's in Organizer Suite Office 19.1, 19.2. Myself, along with a couple of other people, will be outside.
Getting people's names, getting people to enter. Now also, if you are part and parcel of the show, in other words, you've got a stand and you're a DJ, then you can enter as well. Anyone can enter, any professional DJ or anyone who could mix, come along and join in. So whether you're on Denon, Cam, Pioneer, Autophon, DMC, get involved. Now very quickly as well, with The DJ Tutor Sand, as you know it's going to be a bedroom.
All being well, I will have my van in the bedroom. Well, not actually in the bed because that would be a bit silly. It'll be outside the bedroom and we're hopefully going to do a bit of a car boot sale, sell some ex-demo stuff and also in the van I'll be having the 2000s set up, the Pioneer DJM2000, CDJ2000s and it might be like a little bit of a mobile disco in there, you can have a bit of a spin, a wiki wiki. The bedroom itself... We'll have the Pioneer 350 series and we'll have rekordbox there as well. But I think the main attraction is going to be the bed. We're going to have a double bed in there as well. Lampshade, usual things, and if you're feeling tired or maybe you want to snuggle up, you can jump in the bed and have half an hour, never mind, 40 winks. But the fun thing is on Monday around about, I'd say 4.30, maybe even 4 o'clock before the BPM closes.
What we're going to do, we're going to have as many people as possible on the bed because we want to break it. So hopefully we would have broken two things. The world record for the longest consecutive mix by a whole bunch of DJs and also we would have broken the bed. That's what we want to do. So let's get lots of people bouncing up and down on it. So, major points. You can participate in the Guinness World Record attempt. We'll be getting names from people prior to... The other one is adjudicators, if you are a doctor or nurse or maybe a school teacher and you're going and you think, you know what, I could help out for an hour, then email me with that email. I'll put it in the description as well. And the other one, let's break a bed. So without further ado, I'm going to finish my toast now. This is really nice actually. This is toast with marmite inside and melted cheese and it's like...
It's hard now, isn't it? So never mind. Right, practice and enjoy. See you this weekend.
