DJ Selection Process
REAL BAD’s tradition of introducing world class DJs to the San Francisco dance scene has spotlighted great artists from around the world such as Rob Davis, Susan Morabito, Pete Savas, Lydia Prim, Jerry Bonham and Tim Jones. At 9-hours, it is an amazing opportunity for DJs to display their ability to create a complete musical journey for the over 2,000 men and women celebrating the end of Folsom Street Fair weekend.
The DJ Selection Committee is comprised of REAL BAD Working Group members and is managed by the DJ Chair. The Chair is the DJs primary contact through the process who invites the prospective DJs to submit, receives the submissions and distributes them to the judges.
DJs must meet the following criteria to be considered for REAL BAD:
• They have not previously played a San Francisco Bay Area event with more than 300 guests.
• They have not played more than two San Francisco Bay Area events within 24 months of date the invitations are sent out.
• San Francisco/Bay Area includes: San Francisco, Guerneville/Russian River, Oakland, San Jose and the areas in between.
• They have not submitted an application in the three previous consecutive years. If so, they are asked to skip at least one year before submitting again.
• The DJ selected for REAL BAD agrees not to play any parties in the San Francisco Bay Area between the application invitation date and the event in September.
• They follow all instructions and direction provided by the Chair.
The REAL BAD DJ is an invite-only position that involves a two-part selection process as follows:
Step 1 – Eligible DJs who have expressed interest or have been recommended are sent an invitation to submit by the Chair.
Step 2 – The DJ Selection Committee reviews the submissions and selects up to four for the DJs to submit a second round of music.
Step 3 – Music in the second round is distributed to the judges blindly, without any names associated with them, so they are considered purely on the music.
The DJ from the second round who submits the music judged best for REAL BAD is invited to play the party and is announced at the annual Margarita Kick-Off Party in July. DJs who are not selected are provided feedback upon request and are eligible to submit again the following year if they continue to meet the criteria.
The 2010 DJ selection process for REAL BAD XXII is already underway and the recommendation process is now closed.
If you are interested in submitting in 2011 for REAL BAD XXIII, please contact us at info@realbad.org prior to December 1, 2010.
The 2010 REAL BAD DJ will be announced on July 11.
