Masterfully mixed tracks, great storytelling, and a diverse selection of styles delivered with real originality. You can feel the charisma throughout and it's one of essential ingredients in such a contest. The set flows so organically that you never feel like skipping ahead or waiting for what's next. Maintaining dynamics and keeping the listener fully engaged is one of the most important elements, and it’s executed perfectly here.

A well-crafted intro and consistent storytelling, supported by a harmonious and well-rounded selection. The transitions are truly high-quality, and the consistency never feels monotonous. Excellence is evident in every aspect. You can tell it’s a live mix: the rhythm slips slightly in places, but only a trained ear would notice. Top performance and mix!

It’s refreshing to see a clear concept chosen: playing music created exclusively by women. This strong aproach deserves high marks for originality. At times, the mixing feels slightly tentative, relying on loops of very short sections, and transitions can occasionally seem a bit rushed, yet the overall execution remains precise. The selection is impressive, as maintaining a unified sound with such specific criteria is no easy task. While there were a few mistakes, they are outweighed by the charisma and positive energy that run throughout the set.

Varför måste jag mixa in 3 spår från 2025?
Varför måste jag mixa in 3 spår från 2025?
This contest is planned to happen each year and we needed to think of one detail that would separate yearly contests, so we decided to go with this.
It’s a challenge, but it’s doable. We are not saying those 2025 tracks must be the key tracks of your DJ mix, but they will have to be in it. Hopefully it will allow us to see how the music mutates through the years (or doesn’t - but that’s also a very interesting thing to observe).
After recording the mix, each participant must provide us with a playlist of the mix - we will ask you to fill out a special form.
