Any BPM, any production style — minimal, melodic, industrial, trance — but only dark vibes. Ambient is in. Hard melodic techno is in. Industrial hardcore is in. Anything that causes contemplation or catharsis is in. Anything that doesn’t hit where it hurts is out. + +This sounds vague, but it’s the opposite. The filter is strict enough to reject 70% of submissions immediately. A DJ who plays great melodic techno but skews optimistic doesn’t fit. A DJ who plays bad industrial but nails the mood might. The criteria is mood, not tempo. Not genre. Mood. + +Other crews can chase the grooviest, the hardest, the fastest, or the most psychedelic. This operation is after music that hits you where it hurts. + +## The evaluation framework + +DJ booking evaluation runs on a 40/40/20 split: 40% data (follower engagement, past event attendance, mix quality), 40% scene fit (do they match the vibe, do they have the right energy on and off the decks), 20% gut instinct and cult factor. +Diff truncated (60 lines total).
