    Its always cool to see the new generation find our stuff again . Thanks for the nice words. It was an amazing time in SF. I feel blessed to have worked with some truly progressive artists and been a small part of it.

    Vajra's 2004 routine is among my all time favorites but the vid of practice from the hotel before the battle as he had skip problems in the actual battle. As sets go the entire ending scratch and drum section could only be reproduced by a very small number of people. The list here it great though, can't complain about any of that.

    You can use Pro if it's compatible. I also made this video about two or three years ago before Serato's massive update, so I'm not even sure if this controller will work with its current iteration.

    Good ideas! One strategy you can use for mixing is listen for the snare. You can still drop on the one but line up those snares and your blends will be seamless. You had it at the end there! Peace!

    The 1998 DMC U.S. Finals was indeed a force to be reckoned with. It was the very first DJ competition that I ever bought in my whole life. As for Total Eclipse, I was thinking that you were going to mention his 1997 DMC U.S. Finals routine. It was with A Tribe Called Quest's "What's The Scenario?" featuring the debut of Leaders Of The New School. Now, let me break down my top 5 favorite DJ battle routines, if you please And here it goes: #5. DJ Mysterio-1998 DMC U.S. DJ Mixing Finals #4. DJ Nike-1997 DMC World DJ Championships Eliminations/World Finals #3. DJ Plazticman-1990 DMC U.S. DJ Mixing Finals #2. DJ David-1990 and 1991 DMC World DJ Mixing Finals #1. DJ Trip (R.I.P.)-1991 DMC World DJ Mixing Finals Another honorable mention of my personal favorite is DJ Reckless from the 1990 DMC World DJ Mixing Finals.😁

    @@RyanFreshhh With everything of what I have stated a couple of weeks ago, I would love to see more of the lesser known countries and nations go at it on the decks, more so on the old-school turntable style of trick mixing from back in 1990 to 1997 style of mixing. Countries that I would love to see in the DMC competition are Cuba, Jamaica, Iran, Iraq, El Salvador, Panama, Saudi Arabia, Albania, Azerbaijan, Malta, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Fiji, Sudan, Luxembourg, Georgia, Costa Rica, Belize, Quebec as a nation, Laos, Guatemala, and Vietnam. I have already just seen Egypt get it on here on KZread on an online performance from DMC Technics.😁

    i am missing 88 winning set of cash money. he never was the fastest, he was never the best juggling battler.but he was kinda like hendrix, his sick moves, his charisma, his choice to start with play this only at night ( phantasm theme). it was the most impressive atmosphere i can remember. some ppl do not have to be the best in anything and still just....got it. like dj-noize, who destroyed better technical contenders by his amazing body language (like f.e. the diaz brothers in mma and how they were able to go opponents into berzerk mode and won this way. and even if they lost, after the fight, at the press conference they were the winners. its so sad, that today most djs battle with pioneers and premades. even if the performance is good or technical great, they will be forgotten soon. pred or prey often depends on the way you fight :D

    No definitely not the best, bionic booger breaks are the greatest breaks ever.. But I would put super duck breaks second, good shout. DJ flare with Hee Haw brayks was the most used in my collection for word vocal scratching, had so many battle breaks in the days, don't forget frosted breaks think that was rectangle. very much loved and well used, amazing days so much better than now. Excellent channel.

    I was really lucky I got to see most number one DJs and rappers live on the 80s.From Too short, the Egyptian lover,Ice cube, Ice T, Michael Jackson, Stacy Q, and everyone from Motown, singing those oldies at the Hollywood Bowl, you name it, I was on first robe. Those were the greatest years ever, Got to cruise Hollywood Blvd on my brand new Toyota minitruck, with 50.000 watts and 8 15 inchers in the back, the front full of girlies.There was no seatbelt laws those days, sometimes I had like 9 girls in that little cab, sometimes I even had a girl on the left side in my single seat cause they wouldn't fit, another one riding between the shifter,man, wearing those little miniskirts, I used to change gears like it was a big rig with 20 gears

    I remember watching one time around 1985, together with uncle jams army, the DJ from the movie breaking, cutting and scratching backwards on 4 turntables on Reseda CA skating rink.Never seen that done anymore. Every DJ is unique, though, nothing easy. I used to DJ with a friend from kaleidoscope, and got to play at Florentíne Gardens Hollywood on the 80s
