Q+A with DJ Jonathan Toubin

What should the audience in the Humboldt area expect from this upcoming extravaganza?

In terms of the contest (the Dance-Off) we issue each dancer a number and divide them into roughly five groups which we call out separately. Anyone can enter. The judges pick a winner from each group and those all go up against one another at the end. The winner gets a $100, but really everybody is a winner because they will get the opportunity to get down all night to the most exciting soul sides they’ve ever heard at the dance party (the Soul Clap).
