2020 Year in Review for Xylio and DJs
We can certainly say that 2020 was a strange year. Lockdown year we might call it. Pretty much all DJs and KJs have had problems getting gigs to perform to and earning revenue for themselves and the family. 2020 year in review is basically an overview of what we and our fellow DJs did in 2020. Some of the more inventive DJs adapted to this new reality and embraced streaming / performing for radios or made collaborations with different companies to mix live for their online parties. Others...
