Are you growing tired of playing your neighbor’s backyard BBQs and the basement of that smelly dim sum restaurant that doubles as a rave spot at night? Do you have an undeniable thirst for DJ stardom? Do you like Black Butter Records and TomorrowWorld—one of the USA’s most epic super festivals? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions and are feeling ambitious, today just might be your lucky day.
As TomorrowWorld prepares to kick-off its much anticipated second year this September, we’ve teamed up with the folks at the fest, as well as our friends at Black Butter Records (you know, the peeps that broke stars like Rudimental and Gorgon City) and Wavo, to give you the rare chance to open the Black Butter stage at this year’s event. We want to hear your most awesome, exclusive, festival-ready, 30-minute Black Buttery mix, to see if you really have the sounds and skills to graduate from small time to the big leagues, and start the party before Kidnap Kid, My Nu Leng and Henry Krinkle take the massive stage.
