• DJ Society Report
  

How's it going everyone, Will Kinsella here. I'm just writing to let all our members know what's been goin on over the past term. This year has been great for the society. We've come on leaps and bounds since last year and hopefully next year we'll grow even more.

This term began with the launch of "Lunch time Leisure" in the common area downstairs in the Student Union. Basically we have live DJ's from Tuesdays to Fridays. We're trying to create more of an atmosphere in the place, as it's very quiet otherwise.

On the 12th of March we ran "Rollin & Scratchin" the DIT DJ Battle in association with the Roots Movement (parent organisation) in DA 2. It was a great event with 10 DJ's two beatboxers (Keane and Murro) and it was hosted by MC Sage. The night had a diverse flavor to it with the presence of Trance, Techno, Drum 'n Bass, House and Hip Hop. The winners progress to the inter-college battle in the Tivoli on the 9th of April.

Thankfully we now have a website so everyone can monitor our progress on a weekly basis @ www.geocities.com/djsociety_dit It basically has news on upcoming events, the DJ's, the people behind the scenes and loads of photos. You can also email us at [email protected]

There was also a limited number of hoodies and T-shirts made up with the Roots Movement logo representing the Society on them. They seem to have been well received.

To finish off I'd like to wish everyone the best for the rest of the year. I also want to thank people like Barry, Claire, Anton, Tim, Karla, Jan, Juhan, JP, Kate and Kiwi for their help this year. I also want to say thanks to the lads and lovely ladies in Abbey Discs for sponsoring us this year. If you have any inquiries about the DJ Society or the Roots Movement email me at [email protected]

Take it easy and enjoy the rest of the year.
