DJ SEARCH WINNER JOINS KABZA DE SMALL, DBN GOGO, AND MORE AT ULTRA SA’s AMAPIANO & AFRO-TECH STAGE
Introduced last year, Smirnoff’s Storm Room is back at the world’s biggest electronic dance music festival this March, with a mission to take the global phenomenon of Amapiono and Afro-Tech to new heights!
The winner of the Smirnoff DJ Search, Star The DJ, will join superstars Kabza De Small, DBN Gogo and others on stage at the Smirnoff Storm Room, at the world’s biggest EDM festival, Ultra South Africa, at Nasrec in Johannesburg on March 2nd.
Star The DJ emerged as one of the top four finalists who made it through the competition phases of the Smirnoff Storm DJ Search, and then mentored by DJ icons Roger Goode and Kyle Cassim. Star The DJ won the competition through public vote.
The DJ Search comes on the back of South African music, and Amapiano specifically, becoming an international phenomenon, helping to reshape the global dance music scene. The Smirnoff Storm Room line-up at Ultra South Africa presents some of SA’s best proponents of the genre, including Kabza de Small, Kelvin Momo, Tyler ICU, Musa Keys, Thakzin and DBN Gogo.
In addition to the Smirnoff Storm Room stage in Johannesburg, exciting immersive experiences will be available to Ultra SA festival goers both in Cape Town and Johannesburg, including a gaming zone, chill space to charge phones and photo opportunities to name a few.
