## Caption

Around 2006 @djspider entered a DJ mix contest called ‘Next On The Decks’ judged by @iammarkronson in collaboration with BPM Magazine & Rockstar Energy Drink. Then prize was, among other things, a trip to Miami during Winter Music Conference to open for Mark Ronson at Mansion, as well as going on a multi-city tour with Mark opening for him at venues around America. Spider worked really hard on a 30 min. mix, sent it in, and kinda forgot about it.

When he got the call from @mattaveli & @iammarkronson saying he won, he thought it was a prank and they were kidding. He was actually having a conversation with his Mom at the very moment they called debating if he should continue trying to be professional DJ, or “get a real job” - Well, the answer became clear at that moment
Within a week he was at LAX Nightclub, owned by @djamlives, opening for Mark at the BPM magazine party and then on his way to Miami.

That gig in Miami was life changing for many reasons. So when I interviewed @kaskade recently and he told Spider he was at Mansion in Miami and saw Spider open for Mark Ronson and DJ AM, his mind was blown & Kaskade discusses it in this clip from #The20Podcast!
