Answers From The Golden Ticket Giveaway
A few months ago, we asked Disco dancers to help celebrate our 20 glorious years in the business by entering in The Golden Ticket Giveaway. We wanted to contest to be a celebration about you, the fans, who’ve supported us every step of the way. We asked contestants to share the contest on Twitter and tell us how dance music has affected their life. While the winner(s) didn’t receive a tour of any chocolate factory, fans did win various prizes and one lucky person won two tickets to every Disco Donnie Presents event in 2015 – that’s way better than a chocolate, wouldn’t you agree?
Now that the contest is over and the winners have been chosen, we’d like to share their answers to our equivocal question, “How has dance music affected your life?” Thank you to everyone who entered The Golden Ticket Giveaway:

Keeping It Borgeous
Borgeous is having a pretty awesome year. First unveiling a ‘tsunami’ of releases such as “This Could Be Love,” “They Don’t Know Us,” “Big Bang” (Life in Color’s 2015 anthem), and “Zero Gravity” he later tapped into the hip-hop world through his collaboration with Wiz Khalifa, Waka Flocka, and DJ Whoo Kid on “Toast.”
And in true Borgeous form, his remixes are equally as mesmerizing like his remake of Afrojack’s “Ten Feet Tall” or his edit of Ariana Grande’s “One Last Time.”
Getting ready to release two singles on Spinnin’ Records in early November 2015, come and get Borgeous with us on our upcoming select dates. If you can’t wait that long to get your BOR-fix, you can listen to his weekly podcast “House of Borgeous” on SiriusXM.
