Melbourne’s very own Andrew Padula has made it through to the National finals of the Heineken Thrist DJ Comp in Melbourne on April 30.

Padula will go head to head with fellow countrymen to claim the prize money, the prestige and the opportunities from supporting DJs Pete Tong and Tiesto.

“This isn’t about winning to me, although it’s a very decent prize!  It’s all about exposure and contacts.  Ideally I’d like to live off my music and creativity, but just being in a room of musically minded people is all I want out of life.”
