Each event features performances from top-shelf artists like Miles Medina and DJ Brace, presentations from BPM Supreme, and locally-sourced sonic flavor to drive conversations about music, gear, and culture in intimate listening-room style settings. Plus, all attendees will be entered to win great swag and offers from Roland, BPM Supreme, and Serato. Tour dates kick off this month on October 26 in Los Angeles and wrap on November 21 in Miami.

Marley Waters, one of the many talented artists on Roland and BPM Supreme’s fall tour, is looking forward to connecting with aspiring DJs and sharing some of his tips for keeping it fresh during the tour’s opening night in L.A. “As a DJ/producer, we are the vibe curators.
