Denon dances its way onto major Salsa festival
The convention was split into two distinct areas. The morning and afternoon dance workshops - held in the the huge Moscardo Polideportivo gymnasium - were presided over by the best teachers in the world, while by night, the venue La Riviera featured some of the world's best dancers - and a host of international DJ's. This is where Denon came into its own. Spanish dealers, DBM Pro ES, were one of the sponsors and took advantage of demonstrating the scope and capacity of Denon products at both the workshops and the La Riviera show. For the latter they set up a rig comprising four DN-S5000 tabletop CD/MP3 players and a pair of DN-X1500 digital mixers. In the two halls where the workshops were presented DJs were able to mix on a DN-D4000 dual CD/MP3 player and DN-X400 digital mixer in one hall, with a DN-D9000 CD player and DN-X800 (with X-Effect CD control) set up in the other. According to DBM Pro ES' Jose Maria Penalba, "The event was a huge success and reinforced Denon's presence in the world of Spanish DJ's. It provided a great opportunity to establish contact with the salsa specialists - and we are convinced we will maintain a good relationship, judging by the 100% positive feedback we received after using Denon equipment." Mr. Penalba said that his company had received such positive feedback that Gaplasa/DBM Pro ES were already in conversation with the organisers to repeat - and improve - the experience next year. As a result, he confirmed, other event organisers were now opening up opportunities to connect Denon with some of Spain's best known DJ's via participation at similar events for other styles of club music during 2005.
