A Rising Star’s Victory
Adam Vance, a rising star in turntablism, achieved a significant win at the esteemed DMC World DJ Championships, a competition challenging DJs since the 1980s. We explore Vance’s path to success in the Philippines, guided by DMC Philippines, an organization promoting turntablist talent.
The Road to Victory

While confident in his skills, honed through dedicated practice, Adam prioritized enjoying the experience.
Balancing Act

The financial constraints of foregoing gigs made this particularly difficult. Adam’s passion and desire for self-improvement drove him forward.
A Unique Approach
Adam’s unique routine, developed with guidance from renowned battle DJs Encee, Beatjeff, Nikita, and Basstard, set him apart. He incorporated beat juggling alongside scratching, showcasing a well-rounded skill set. Having turntables at home and DJ Kai’s S9 mixer provided crucial tools for perfecting his craft.

His performances often feature new school hip-hop sets enhanced by guitar effects, thanks in part to collaborations with the VIBE CHECK crew. He plans to compete globally in the DMC World Championships, recognizing the need for intensive practice to represent the Philippines well. He also aims to promote DJing as an art form and a vital part of hip-hop culture, sharing his knowledge to elevate the DJing community.
