World Battle Champions
By the year 2000 more than 30 nations were taking part in the annual DMC Championship and the event now spanned a whole weekend, so DMC decided to introduce a third discipline, the Battle for World Supremacy. This exhilarating new competition consisting of head to head knock out rounds, allows each competitor just 90 seconds to destroy the arch rival opposite them. DJ Kohd from France took the first title with a series of fast and furious bouts. France continued to conquer as DJ Netik carved his name in DJ history and claimed the prize in both 2001 and 2002. The UK's Tigerstyle claimed the honors in 2003 and put pay to his individual event disappointment. Akakabe from Japan excelled at London's Hammersmith Apollo in 2004, ProZeiko from Germany and another talented Japanese finalist Coma took the title in 2005 and 2006. The aptly named Shiftee snatched the Battle for World Supremacy accolade in 2007 and further bolstered the USA's victory tally.

2003 BATTLE CHAMPION - TIGERSTYLE (UK)

2002 / 2001 BATTLE CHAMPION - NETIK (FRANCE)

When watching Bruce Lee it’s necessary for people to slow down the video tape in order to dissect his every move because in he was far too swift. This same theory applies to Netik, when he’s at the turntable you have to make several attempts to coordinate what you see and what you hear. Netik’s shows are as much a physical feat as it is a downpour of ultra-powerful syncopated beats, offering a combination of old school hip-hop and radical new electronic music. This is a devastating sound that hasn’t been heard for ages. Half-man, half-machine, that’s the way Netik enters into the legend.
