DJs, Artists and professionals from around the nation set sights on The DJs United Conference hosted at the Radisson Hotel, 2500 High School Rd, Indianapolis, IN, Friday, April 20, 2012 through Sunday, April 22, 2012. Doors open at 10:00 AM.

With the industry becoming more “DIY” – Do it Yourself friendly, the concept of DJs United was formed by various Midwest DJ Coalitions in the region to support the future of the industry. As the conference began to grow and the brand awareness spread, more coalitions wanted to participate. What started out as a Midwest conference, has turned into a national conference. Retail is dwindling, downloads are up, and sales are not as robust as before: the artists must create and maintain a relationship with those who have direct contact with consumers and fans… The DJ. We are proud to announce the following sponsors who are participating in DJ United Conference: E 1 Music, Rap-A-Lot Records, Platinum Hip Hop Trading Cards, Tweetmysong.com, Intro, Selecto Hits, Russell Law, Hype Magazine, Twenty4Seven Magazine, Hip Hop Union, Strapped Condoms, Eye-see Enterprises, M.E.C.A.P., Royal Blunts, Nerve DJs, DJ A&R, Stopbeefinradio.com, Brightwood Entertainment, Midwestmixtapes.com, and many up-and-coming artists. DJs United also has a great line up of panelists for the weekend. With industry professionals and executives from around the country, DJs, artists and labels will be able to expand their knowledge on topics such a Publishing, Digital Marketing, Management, Legal aspects of the business, and developing relationships between the DJ and artist. Education, Networking and breaking new music is the focus of the conference.
