Shure Vinyl Kombat new Major DJ Battle to Debut in the U.S. This Summer

Shure announced that it will introduce a new competition to the U.S. DJ battle circuit, Vinyl Kombat. The unique aspect of this competition is that it will operate under a "Keep it Clean" premise to offer a safe and positive environment where competitors and audiences of all ages can participate.

"We created Vinyl Kombat as a way to highlight the DJ element of Hip Hop culture," said Bill Oakley, Marketing Specialist/Phonograph Product Manager for Shure. "We also hope to expose new audiences to this dynamic form of artistic expression."

The "Keep it Clean" rule extends to all of the Vinyl Kombat hosts and performers. Each of the competitors will have to be very creative and articulate their responses without any profanity or vulgarity when battling their opponents. In addition, Shure is staging each event in venues that have agreed to admit participants of all ages.

Shure, which manufactures industry-leading phono cartridges and has been intimately involved with the Hip Hop scene and its artists for almost 10 years, is presenting Vinyl Kombat because most DJ battles exclude the bulk of turntable music enthusiasts who are under the age of 18 by staging events at nightclubs which only admit adults or by accepting sponsorship from alcohol and/or cigarette companies. By strictly adhering to a 'Keep It Clean' rule, Shure is literally opening the doors for more young people to discover the DJ element of Hip Hop culture.

"Hip Hop culture was launched by young people in the 70's who couldn't get in to the discos because they were underage," said Vinyl Kombat Event Coordinator Christie Z-Pabon. "Nightclubs have now taken the place of the discos and kids still can't get in! Vinyl Kombat offers a solution by allowing all-ages audiences at each event. Many club owners have gone a step further and embraced our mission by graciously agreeing not to sell alcohol during the competition."

In addition to the competitions, the Vinyl Kombat tour will feature performances from DJ A-Trak, of the Allies crew, who won his first World DJ title at the age of 15 and retired from battling by the time he was 18 years old, after winning four more World titles. Other headliners include Shure endorsers Mista Sinista, D-Styles, DJ Nu-Mark of Jurassic 5, DJ Klever of the Allies crew, and the Beat Junkies, whose members include Melo-D, J-Rocc, Rhettmatic and Shortkut. Also performing will be some of the nation's most respected turntablists, partyrockers, and emcees including Supernatural, Wordsayer, Gunkhole, DV One, D.O.A. (vocal percussionist), The Original Jazzy Jay, GrandMaster Caz, and GrandWizzard Theodore, the inventor of the scratch.

"Vinyl Kombat is going to make a lot of noise this year," said A-Trak. "It's open to all ages, which is crucial. I started DJing when I was 13 and I wish there had been battles like this back then because it's so hard to be exposed to this music when you're underage. Plus, this joint is put on by people who've been involved behind the scenes in organizing the best battles in the last couple of years, so it'll definitely be on point."

At most events, admission has been predetermined at $15 for adults and $10 for young people ages 16 and under.

Each of the eight Vinyl Kombat regional champions will receive prizes from Shure Incorporated and other Vinyl Kombat sponsors, Rane, Serato and Remix Magazine. They also will receive roundtrip airfare and hotel accommodations to the Vinyl Kombat US Finals to be held in September.

July 1: The El Rey, Los Angeles

July 16: The Parish, Austin, TX
July 18: BB Kings, New York City
