This Thursday, February 21, 2013, Biola is involved in something actually interesting. This Thursday college DJs from schools across Orange County will compete for the coveted title of Red Bull Thre3style U Champion – a title that comes with bragging rights; cash prizes; a stamp of approval from some of the best DJs in Orange County.
Since we're fanonymous bloggers from SoCal who are more than obviously involved in the college scene we decided we'd do our first interview piece on this sick spin competition. Due to anonymities and DK behavior, we made this meeting discreet and as real as possible. We met up with the face(s) of the event, The Mauriello Twins. Thomas and Michael Mauriello are the trendiest and most comical bastards we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. The twins are infamous at Biola University and are senior art majors. Even though we don't understand the whole foundation of Bible universities and that's not exactly a can we're willing to pop open, we're going to slowly slide right through that awkward elephant in the room and get right into the part we enjoyed - talking to these identical bad boys.
DK: What made you want to host Red Bull Thre3style U?
M: We got asked by a friend to host the event after they had seen us MC Biola's Punk N Pie talent show last fall. We're members of the comedy club and we like to be on stage together so we figured it'd be fun and a good thing to put on our resume's (laughs).
DK: Hell yeah. Have you guys ever considered doing solo work? Or is that an awkward question?
M: Not at all! We've never really thought about it but I'm sure at some point in our lives we're going to have to part ways. Like maybe when we get married. But then again, maybe not... (laughs). As far as comedy and acting goes, we like to be together since obviously we have that twin telekinesis thing going on.
DK: Hear a rumor you guys have your own drink special at the bar? Are you allowed to tell me more about that?
M: I mean yeah, I think so. We have a drink named after us behind the bar at Yost called the 'Mauriello.' Which we think is hilarious. Gettin' drunk on dem Mauriello's! (laughs). I think it's Jaeger and Red Bull, so things are gonna get pretty feisty up in the Yost.
DK: Last question... tell me a little more about the event. If you had to describe it in 5 words what would those words be?
M: Threestyle is a Dj competition where each DJ is in college and they have to play more than 3 genres in their set. Our friend said it gets pretty crazy. Apparently people get into battle mode and play like Call of Duty shot gun sounds. So good luck. But it's crazy... Loud. Different. Um... we're gonna be funny. So funny. (laughs). Musical and rowdy. I've always sucked at that interview question. Maybe we're not that funny.
See you there, discounters. Or will we? #anonymousbloggerproblems. ;)
