The Heineken Green Synergy show is now down to three DJs vying for the over $1 million in cash and prizes courtesy of Heineken after another exciting episode unfolded last Friday on TVJ.

It was Ricky Eminence who first got eliminated after coming out the loser in a keenly contested clash with DJ Banka. Both had been placed in the clash after scoring the lowest points in a previous challenge.

Banka, who hails from Mocho, Clarendon, and has become one of the favourites with viewers of the show, was in his comfort zone for the clash being a more hardcore dancehall DJ. However, Ricky Eminence, a well experienced DJ rose to the occasion and did a very entertaining set.

In the end Banka came out on top by a a nail-biting one point, keeping his place on the show. Banka's joy was however short lived as in the next challenge he was eliminated.

For that challenge the DJs were given 24 hours to prepare and execute a live remix with at least 4 songs. They had no time limit to play but the remix should sound like a song itself.

In this challenge it was DJ 47 who again came out tops after displaying a very creative set choosing Wayne Wonder's No Letting Go, and mixing in at least three different genres.

Commenting on DJ 47's set Judge Alric said, "I like the innovation and use of tools, it created movement in remixing."

DJ Naz also did well for herself. Her song of choice was Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five's Message, and she stuck to the task and did a good job of it.

DJ Banka set was a total mess. Having gotten the song Good Times by Chic to remix, it was evident that he didn't spend much time and effort on planning his set. As Collin Hinds described it, "You obviously weren't having a good time, you killed the song, literally, I pause to shed a tear."

DJ Jerry was his usual efficient self, remixing Third World's 96 Degrees. Jerry's set was well thought out and got the approving nod from the judges. Judge Boyd described it as, "A very good job".

In the end DJ 47 scored the highest with 40 points, DJ Naz for her effort got 39.6, DJ Jerry got 38, while DJ Banka got a dismal 28.

So it's now down to DJ 47, DJ Jerry, DJ Naz in the hunt. The top two from the show will battle for the 2010 Championship at the Heineken Green Synergy Grand Finals which will be held at the National Indoor Centre in Kingston on October 29.

This big event will have three of the baddest DJs on the planet wrecking the place, the turn table legend Grand Master Flash, a celebrity guest judge on the show, many time DMC World Champion DJ Qbert, and the former DJ of Notorious BIG, DJ Enuf.

The next episode of the Heineken Green Synergy will be aired tomorrow on TVJ at 11:30 pm.
