Yep! Its exactly what they need......a sonic baton in their heads. Love it!

This is what being a Dj is all about. Making your own scratches, beat juggling, beat matching. I remember when I first learned how to Dj in Philly. The biggest thing was getting instrumentals and acapellas to make your own mix. These days all you have to do is buy a controller and push a couple of buttons. That's not learning the Dj craft. Its not all about the scratching and tricks. If you can blend and rock a party your straight. know your music, looking at your crowd. Big shout out to the legendary DJ Craze. Very humble guy met him while being stationed in Schofield Barracks Hawaii in 2002-2003. This guy got me through 4 deployments in Iraq. Salute

dear ukf/edm employee and/or child producer, I'm totally peaceful, I just know they only promote what's most generic and would sell, I haven't heard a single unique track being "promoted" = it's just the spinnin formula, and just like with ghost producing - it's an effortless, talentless way of making money on the backs of other people (be it children or ghost producers (which is probably the same))

being a scratch dj in the late 90's I never understood why turntablism didn't blow up. you got so called "dj's" literally standing on a stage getting paid 6 figures per gig pretending to do something, while a turntablist spends hours per routine to make it look and sound amazing. here's a salute to the real dj's; isp, beat junkies, allies, xmen, and any other crew i missed.

The reason these guys get paid 6 figures per gig, is because people pay good money to go see them because they like their music and want to listen to it in these big production concerts. You can't compare turntabalism and this, it's two completely different things. You can argue there isn't much DJ'ing going on, other than regular beat matching. But what is "DJ'ing" and when can you call yourself one? I'm freelance and resident at one or two clubs and I consider myself a DJ eventhough I am no turntabalist Don't get me wrong, I really do admire DJ's who perfect or even perform the art of turntabalism.

DJ Craze is a legend!! Most of the people in the comments have no idea about DJing in general! This man is a turntablist! A good Club/Festival DJ should be able to mix 2 to 4 tracks at the same time, hold smooth in key mixing for minutes (1-4), sample, scratch, remix live and also trick mixing!! These 2 types of DJ's should be respected!! DJ selectors like EDM DJ's, are not real dj's!! They are over paid dukeboxes!!!

There are Turntablists then there’s this guy . Absolutely untouchable and constantly innovating . Yeah we have Q-Bert but he’s not a patch on this guy

QBert, Craze, Shadow, A Trak, Danny the Wildchild, Kid Koala ....... This is Turntablism at its finest.

I feel like we're using "DJ" to refer to two quite distinct skills though. One is using turntables as a musical instrument. And the other is putting together the right playlist for a certain crowd.

It's not about what equipment he uses, but how he uses it. He hass evolved as the equipment has evolved. Bravo Craze! Put those fake ''DJs'' in check

The best Dj in the world is Dj Craze hands down... no for his fame, not because of the media... but because of his pure and absolute talent, skill, intelligence and most of all because he loves music. I hope to see him one day in person. Sick routine by the way!! Thanks for posting!

By far the best dj in the world! And has the titles to prove it

They Should just give Craze the 2015 DMC World Champ title already.

Craze is a fucken Legend! This routine is insane....David Guetta, Pauly D, Aoki, none of those cats give me the urge to go practice on my turntables! It's dudes like Craze, who keep the true art of DJing Alive, and keep inspiring! You know whats really dope? Craze could still put together a sick routine with straight wax! I salute you OG!

Craze, one of a small hand full of true DJ's that can rock a gold set and not look pretentious; he's earned it.

Gonna go see him this Saturday !! Can't wait # real DJ

Amazing, You're an inspiration!

Craze, you're one of the greatest that's ever lived and your '99 DMC routine still leaves us in awe... So we'll take that diss on the chin! :) In our defence, after 30 years we're doing what we can to keep it alive too...

Thanks for bringing this back Craze... I used to watch you slaying those ITF routines back in the day on the same shiz

THIS.

Glad somebody called out these wack press-play dj's. Respect.

One of the greats he is still head and shoulders above 95% of the djs right now even years after his dmc wins moving with the times as djing has evolved! I remember you smashing Fabric!Respect!

Craze is without a doubt the best scratch artist I've ever heard. His flows and patters are so tight, if you look at Crazes' routines from the hey days of late 90's early 2000's you can see how ahead of the game he was.. proper talent, and some awesome creativity

now THIS is the real art of DJing! #RealDjing

Still the best in the world,if you hadnt have retired from DMC i reckon you would be up to 14 gold turntables by now :)

Who the hell are are the people that thumbs downed this? Like why? This is as precise as you can get as a live DJ. Not those fake ipad using celebrity DJs.

Years later, I finally recognized the intro... It's Daniel Tosh! He was doing a web redemption. Absolutely CRAZE's work though. Video was uploaded in 2014, I'm still watching this lol.

A GOLD Z2 WOW!!!!

I think I broke the like button on this set 😐

Can scratch on the dime with no earphones to cue a true high pitch sound. Of course with all the new tech of getting over with a real DJ.

I’m coming back to this video 9 years later and still one of the best sets I’ve ever heard

THIS IS #REALDJING !!!

compare that to David Guetta who has pre-recorded sets yet gets to be mainstage every fucking year at the big music festivals

I love watching these videos. Good job man

MrSTAYUP33 is correct. I've seen Craze live. He mixes songs into each other in addition to scratching. These types of routines are just a condensed power-packed show of his skills. During a live set these skills are spread out over time during the mixing of regular tracks. When I saw him it was at Ultra Music Festival... I think 2003 or so? He was on the DnB stage spinning/scratching DnB - was fantastic. Added a lot of great flare to the already intense energy that DnB brought.

Dj Craze: you are an inspiration. A reason I got into djing and appreciated turntablism. I like how you are using technology and still using dj skills of scratching and beat juggling with your hands/body not just button pressing.
