The mobile application and live events are marketed towards enjoying the moment together. This approach relies on the idea of good PR though social engagement. DJ-51 establishes a small radius as a network perimeter, based on the geo-location data from mobile devices, which determines when a user can connect, share music with the room and most importantly grounds them to the physical space they are in.

In effect DJ-51 deliver a brand ambassador to any event, marketing the moment itself to enhance audience connections among themselves and the brand, Cachaca 51.

Cachaca 51 wanted to provide the perfect music to accompany the spaces in which it is shared most commonly. DJ-51's algorithm discovers intersections within shared music to provide the perfect playlist. Furthermore, it is built as an application based on your current location, so that you can only share music with those around you, highlighting the physical space over the cloud.

Built as a unique application for physical spaces this campaign builds a strong association between Cachaca 51 and the places that alcohol is already enjoyed, in the moment.

DJ-51 has proved to be a highly successful global launch platform for Cachaca 51. Within the first three weeks the application had more than ten thousand downloads.

It now has a strong database of 1.3 million songs pre-sorted and analyzed, and has created approximately 24 thousand unique playlists. It has been organically growing with approximately a thousand more downloads a day in over 35 countries; effectively creating more then ten thousand ambassadors of the brand, and positioning the band in the right space for behaviors directly associated with alcohol consumption.

DJ-51 was first officially launched at SXSW, in Austin, Texas, as both an interactive and musical innovation. People were drawn to the idea of an application that could aggregate music for them and their friends.

As people joined and left the live event the shifts within music and mood became more apparent. This highlighted the ephemerality of the application and drew more people to engage with the idea of moments distilled within the micro-networks they create via their mobile applications.

The live events are supervised, however the application is fully functionally and can be utilized for personal events thereafter.

The creation of DJ-51 started with the idea of expanding Cachaca 51’s brand identity across international markets.
