The competition was fierce, but there can be only one… after a tense week of voting, we can now reveal which up and coming inthemix DJ will be taking to the decks this NYE at Sensation ‘Ocean of White’ in Melbourne. Gaining the most votes with his mix of upfront house we’d like to congratulate Adrian Marolda!

It was a close race for the top spot, as nipping very close on Adrian’s heels were DJ Manesh and Angus Gibbins. “The winning result has come to a complete shock, I would never have thought it would be me,” Adrian told inthemix today when he was notified of his momentous triumph. “I want to thank everyone who voted, and also thank you to inthemix and Sensation for the rare opportunity!”

Adrian will now play Sensation on NYE, and also scores a set of Sony MDR-V5000DJ headphones. If you’d like to hear Adrian’s winning mix you can check it out here in ITM-FM.
