DMC UK DJ CHAMPIONSHIPS 2010 RESULTS 15/7/10
+ DJ JEPPA RECROWNED UK CHAMP
+ MIKE L MAKES COMEBACK TO TAKE 2ND PLACE
+ UK SUPREMACY BATTLE CHAMP: DECEPTAKUT
+ TY AND KLASHNEKOFF STORM THE STAGE WITH INCREDIBLE LIVE SHOWS

Kicking off 2010s UK events, the UK DJ Final and Battle For UK Supremacy took place at the 02 Academy Islington on Thursday 15th July with the winners going head to head, battling for a place at the World DJ Championships on October 17th and 18th at KOKO.

Competing this year were the following impressive array of DJs: Mike L, Johnny 1 Move, Rasp, Loop Skywalker, Mr Eclipse, DJ Downlow, Killer Tomato and defending his title Jeppa.

It was, as ever, a tough contest with all the countrys talent ferociously pitting their worth on the 02 Academys stage. When it was all said and done, last years winner DJ Jeppa retained his title, and Mike L took the second place award, with one point to separate the two in the judges eyes. Johnny One Move came a close third in what was a terrific battle.

In the Battle for UK Supremacy, Deceptakut took the title with last years champion DJ Rasp leaving with the Runners Up prize.

On the evening, two legends of homegrown hip-hop tore the stage apart with their fiery but equally unique live shows. Ty performed songs from his new LP Special Kind Of Fool to a rapturous reception, and Klashnekoff reached the stage for the final performance of the night showing exactly what people have been missing before his new LP Back To The Sagas drops. 

Ortofon were present on the night, giving away freebies to the crowd, and presenting Deceptakut with a pair of Ortofon-Serato S-120s, an Ortofon Digibag and a cartridge case, for winning the Battle for Supremacy.

A number of DJs (including Rasp and Johnny 1Move) also performed on the Ecler HAK 360 mixer.
