This guy had some music potential but sadly failed in life. Ended up being some IT coordinator at Columbia. How you gonna support a family like that? 🤣
Way, way ahead of his time back then. That's dope that the crowd understood what was going on with the tone routine with the skip and push. Paris crowd is smart.
WHAT THE FUCK JUST FUCKING HAPPENED HERE!? Makes you wonder how berserk that DJ is with his nifty juggling, and style changes. But where in the world did he came up with that weird ass trick mix scratch?😁
Alladin obviously wiped out Cash in the 1st Round. In Round 2 Cash Money narrowly beats Alladin. I would say this should have been a draw. In my books though, Alladin is Supreme, along with Joe Cooley
Wouldn't it be funny if the DJ's like this one and a slew of others from that era would scratch one record with both hands while doing an old-school style trick mix? That's what I've noticed with my A.I. art prompts of my DJ's of my fantasy world DJ competitions that I have created. Which reminds me of a real-life experience of listening to a radio show of WNYU 89.1 FM back in 1995. I was 16 years old during that time, and I was still attending private school back then. In fact, it was a school night when I recorded that segment on my Mom's boombox on a Wednesday night. I remember when it turned midnight, actually Thursday morning at 12:00 a.m., I was listening to the DJ that went by name of Technician-who was a guest DJ at that time on DJ Mayhem and DJ Riz's radio show back then,. He was mixing on Jay-Z's underground old-school hit "I Can't Get With That" , and he did some wild-out shit on the turntables-by scratching the record, making it sound all scribbly-scrambly, like a tape recorder about to eat up the tape, or a film reel projector audio sound being manipulated due to technical difficulty at a TV station of some sort, and abruptly ending that scratch with a sharp rewind backspin. That shit got stuck in my head ever since for all the years in my life. Since then, I wanted to become a DJ, and for some strange reason, I discovered and downloaded Virtual DJ for my former laptop back in 2009, and right there and then I started doing my own mixes on my computer like crazy. Now, I am curious to know this, which brings me to ask this question. Were there ever any DJ's back in the early 1990's DJ competitions, who would scratch the record with both hands, to make the record sound scribbly when they scratch while doing turntable tricks? I would like your answer.😁
now this is just my opinion, but I think MMM is the best scratcher. yes, Q-bert is like an encyclopedia, but MMM is where it's at when it comes to scratching. like someone else said, very much under appreciated
I could just imagine, the DJ's in my A.I. created art could mix exactly like this. And I happen to create a slew of them, too. But I wish I could generate a real video of my A.I. art of turntablist DJ's , and see for myself if they could cut up just like the talented DJ 's of real-life planet Earth.😁
