| DMC was founded in 1983 and is the largest DJ organisation in the world with its headquarters in the UK. Over the decades it has successfully expanded into the youth market with music, magazines and the legendary DMC World DJ Championship with branches in over 32 countries. |
| |
| DMC was the world's first DJ mix service and still today provides the DJ world with a monthly membership of the latest remixes / megamixes / two trackers / cut ups and promos. |
| |
| DMC created the biggest selling music magazine ever, Mixmag which we owned for 15 years which had monthly sales of over 150,000 until we sold it to EMAP Publishing. The magazine was a bible to dance music lovers and was pivotal to the emergence and success of the music and Club DJs. |
| |
| In addition to maintaining its DMC clothing line the company has successful music compilation CDs including Back to Mine, (described by NME magazine as 'probably the greatest compilation series ever'!) |
| |
| The DMC World DJ Championships was launched in 1985 and has become the world's number one and longest running DJ Competition in the world with an uncountable world-wide fan base and cult following. It is the only world-wide music based competition. |
| |
| To become a DMC World DJ Champion, DJs around the world use techniques such as scratching and cutting to create their own musical arrangements before a live audience. |
| |
| In DMC battles, legends are made. Being a DMC World or National Champion continues to be one of the most sought after titles for DJ turntablists worldwide! |
| |
DMC Champions on all levels have gone on to do major work - for instance:
Roc Raida (1995 DMC World Champion) was the DJ for Busta Rhymes
A-Trak (1997 DMC World Champion) DJs for Kanye West
Mix Master Mike (2x World Champion) DJs for The Beastie Boys
DJ Enferno (2003 DMC US Champion) DJs for Madonna
DJ IQ (Young UK DMC Champion) DJs for Professor Green

| DMC maintains the world's premier DJ web site. The company have managed Sasha whilst Digweed has been signed to their public label STRESS RECORDS. They also managed Brothers in Rhythm who created the musical bridge for Kylie Minogue from PWL to her new career starting with 'Confide in Me' which was recorded in DMC's own studios. |
| |
| Most DJs recognise the influence of DMC and all of them saw their careers expanding once the company had featured them on the cover of Mixmag. It is commonly recognised that top club brands such as Ministry of Sound, Cream, Renaissance and Ibiza club culture were all founded on the DMC exposure in Mixmag. |
| |
| DMC are now looking forward with great excitement to the new generation of DJs. We have recognised in recent years the need and demand for new technology and the DMC Online DJ Championship allows us to embrace all technology. The DMC Online Championship gives every DJ in the world the opportunity to compete in a DMC competition. |

| Good luck from the DMC team! |
