Tonight is big for Belize's best DJ's. The champion selectors from each district will battle out in the Belikin DJ Championship Final Round.
And they will be judged on an international standard, by Max Glazer, who is the concert DJ for Chronixx and Rihanna,.
Event organizer Shyne Barrow and Glazer told us what they are expecting to see and hear tonight.
Shyne Barrow, Belize Music Ambassador
"The international superstar DJs are not overseeing they are just contributing to flow. They have experience outside of Belize. Again while we have a Father Stone and Dj Dalla who are icons in Belize it is important in what my vision is and my vision is to create a global, versatile, dynamic DJ, the best DJ that can go out there and win the Redbull competition. That can go out and perform in any part of the world. It is important to have people like Max Glazer who have toured with Rihanna and Chronixx. Who is out there in the world in the region apart from Belize to give his perspective."
Max Glazer, DJ
"I am looking for people who are one there is the basics, technically competent and proficient and comfortable with what they're doing but also I am looking for what Belizean DJs like Shyne said on an international level. Some of the things that are unique to Belize. The patois, slang, the talk, and the style of how Belizean DJs do their thing because it is different in every region."
The competition will be held at club Elite at the Ramada Princess tonight. The first place winner will receive $3,000 in cash, and a round trip ticket to New York City to perform at club Karnival BZ with all expenses paid.
