KNNKT – launch of the twitter wall

April 27, 2009 · Posted in KNNKT, Music, dj, producing, visuals

Talking to people active as DJ, VJ or producer at Play & Produce and at various other occaions, it was became obvious that there’s a problem with effective news distribution concerning these subjects. Especially good, reliable Dutch sources are close to nonexistent. Beginners are desperate for easy to swallow information and basicly the whole scène is tired of trying to stay up to date using the vast jungle that is the Internets.

KNNKT was born! (actually officially on the 20th of October 2008 at 18h38)

Together with FreeJays’ VJ AV8R (formerly known as AVoid, offline referred to as Jonas Pottie) and daMusic godfather Audience, also known as Robin Tulkens, we gave birth to KNNKT (pronounced connect), a Dutch platform for DJ’s, VJ’s and producers, providing bitesize news, tutorials, how-to’s, and much more very cool stuff and tools in the future (but that’s still super secret, seriously, you guys).

This first, pre-launch phase is a Twitter mash-up sorting the updates from the KNNKT Twitter account. It’s a mix of news and things we think are awesome and you need to see.

So if you’re into deejaying, veejaying or producing your own tracks, bookmark the site, sign up for the newsletter (that informs you of KNNKT updates, not news, yet) and follow the KNNKT Twitter account. Hellasweet.

We’re also looking for contributors to share knowledge and funnel news. Do you breathe, eat and sleep hardware, think in MIDI or make crazy setups using twelve old VCR’s and a cow to project on – let us know!
