DJs + "Hamsters" Wanted for Coachella 2010 Contest
Global Inheritance, a non-profit organization "working to empower individuals worldwide to think and act creatively in solving global imbalances" is looking for a few good DJs with friends who can act as "hamsters" at their The Energy Facotry Sweatshop Mixer. DJs who are selected need to bring 12 fit friends along with them. Why? Because your friends will be responsible for helping power the turntables/CDJs and sound equipment by running on hamster wheels, riding bikes, turning hand cranks, and riding seesaws. There is a $50.00 entry fee, but this is waived if you and your friends do a good job for 30 minutes. For a job well done, DJs receive a t-shirt and bragging rights on their resume.
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will take place from April 16-18, 2010 at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, California. The event features many genres of music including alternative rock, hip hop, and electronic music as well as large sculptural art. Electronic music artists who have appeared at Coachella in the past include Underworld, DJ Shadow, The Chemical Brothers, and Massive Attack. While the final schedule hasn't been released yet, a few bands have been rumored to appear, including Muse, Hot Chip, The xx, Devo, Craze & Klever and As Tall as Lions.
