Description

Leggo My Demo is a monthly demo competition for electronic music that now has the support of thousands of artists and producers around the word. Each month, participants submit their newest demos. The winners are featured at an event in South Florida and on the group’s MySpace page. Participants also have access to Leggo My Demo affiliate artists, with whom they can network and communicate about the industry. This grant will help the organization expand and better connect with local artists through promotions, forums and press releases furthering South Florida as a place to develop electronic music.

Background

Chris Chrebet started Leggo My Demo in 2006 when he found himself with a pile of new electronic music demos given to him at the Winter Music Conference in Miami Beach. He decided to choose the most artistic demos, post the results online and hold an event featuring the best from around the world. When thousands of DJs and producers joined Leggo My Demo’s MySpace network, Chrebet was inspired to produce the monthly awards and events in Miami Beach.
