DJ Championship Director Reji joins PT editorial team

More juice on what’s hot in the DJ Business

“With DJ business playing the role of a catalyst for the pro audio industry, PT gears up to focus on DJ technology and product market strongly from 2018. Reji Ravindran has worked closely with PT in planning and executing the PALM DJ Championship. “I realized Reji is as cerebral as he is a proficient DJ. He shares the spirit of motivation to serve the interests of the market at large or rather the talent force at large. It is a matter of joy that Reji joins the PT editorial board. I’m assured that in the coming issues our readers will benefit sufficiently as we work on intelligent, well researched articles analyzing DJ industry in India,” says AC, Editor of PT.

“I’m honoured and super excited to join the PT editorial team in 2018. Ive been working with the PALM DJ Championship and Soundscape programmes since the past 8 years and joining the team gives me the voice to represent the DJ fraternity. I hope my columns in the upcoming editions would be informative and entertaining to the loyal readers of PT magazine,” says Reji.

“PT covers a vast array of segments over a span of one year across 6 special issues dedicated to FOH, Studio, Live Sound, Audiovisual Integration, Lighting and Big Stage DJ. For PT, its very useful and necessary that Reji with his knowledge quotient of the DJ Industry joins the PT team,” said Smita Rai, Manging Editor of PT.

Reji will oversee the DJ news pages as well as the sharp Product Focus PT will select from the array of DJ equipment. The DJ Big stage issue will have much more information and analysis of DJ gear. Reji’s column will equally cover DJs, the big DJ acts performed on the big DJ stage in India, as well as hopefully insider news on the organisers, impresarios, event managers, artist managers and fresh talent hitting the right buttons. Product Focus, future gazing.

With a musical career that has spanned more than 18 years, the multi-faceted DJ Reji has donned various hats in the alternative and electronic music scene in Mumbai – from being a DJ and Turntablist to an Educator and Curator. Born in Mumbai, Reji was bitten by the music bug during the 90s. After collecting loads of music on vinyl, cassettes & CDs through his teen years, he decided to give a shot at DJing in 1998. Since that year, there has been no stopping for Reji. You would still find him smashing dance floors of all sizes, along with educating minds on both sides of the DJ console through his various music industry related contributions.

He has been a driving force behind PALM DJ Championship since 2011, motivating young minds and making sizeable contributions to the DJ industry. He believes that the Championship is the first breakthrough for the participants, propelling them to the next level.
