No, no, no. There are no mixes or anything like that. In it’s most basic form you have 5 “dj’s” playing music, when one is done with their song the next “dj” starts playing their song. The crowd in the room can then rate the song awesome or lame giving a point for every awesome, but taking one away for every lame. If you find a “dj” that is consistently playing songs you like then you fan that person and you get a notification whenever they start plying in a room. It’s a great way to discover new music and is akin to going to a friends house to play records and show each other what you’ve recently bought.

You can do a proxy to get around the not being in the US, but I don’t really know anything about those.

I’ve been checking it out for a few days now, and so far it’s an interesting concept. I’ve met working DJs, bedroom DJs, people interested in DJing, and the everyday music fan in there and it has even landed me a few new followers on Soundcloud. There are a variety of rooms to check out, but if you’re into Deep/Soulful/Funky House Music then check out “Proper House Music”. That’s where I usually hang out.
