This year the crown of turntablism for winning the DMC World Championship 2011 goes to US DJ Vajra!
The DMC World DJ Championship took place at London’s Indig02 this week. The judges of the competition crowned USA DJ Vajra, from Denver, Colorado US as the winner.
Vajra became the proud owner of a gold-plated mixer when he won the world championship in London…
Here is a new vid by Native Instruments:
This time NI shows Jamie Lidell performing an iMaschine exclusive version of “A Little Bit More” from the album Multiply (2005, Warp) while relaxing in bed.
The entire performance was done live in one take, with nothing pre-recorded, and no post-production edits made to the song.
Check out DJ Angelo putting down a really cool and funky turntablism routine.
It’s a quick mashup of some of his old battle routines from years ago (complete with authentic vinyl crackles!).
Watch the vid of DJ Angelo rippin it up!
Congratulations to DJ Unkut the world’s first DMC Online DJ Champion.
The crown rests in Germany! Hard luck to Ritchie Ruftone, a brilliant runner-up and to those who hovered right at the top.
Unkut will be one of a hundred DJs gathered in London on 6th and 7th October for the DMC World DJ Championship Festival. But will the new DMC Online DJ Champion take the most coveted DJ title in the world? Just can’t wait for what promises to be one of the most exciting battles for years!
Beardyman is awesome… After winning the well renowned Lyric Pad Beatbox Battle twice in 2004, he went on to win the title of London champion and UK runner up in the 2005 Championships and the following year became UK Beatbox Champion 2006.
He successfully defended his title in June 2007 to become the first beatboxer in UK history to win the national championships twice in a row.
Hilarious, brilliant, unpredictable – comedian/musician Reggie Watts is a staple of the international performance scene. Reggie’s improvised musical sets are created on-the-spot using only his formidable voice and a looping machine.
No two songs are ever the same. An avowed “disinformationist,” Reggie loves to disorientate his audiences in the most entertaining way. You may not know what Reggie is going to do, but that’s okay – he doesn’t either.
Not only an innovator for the genre defying music he creates, but also for the way in which he creates it. Joe’s groundbreaking live show is a modern day interpretation of the one man band.
Utilizing live looping technology, Driscoll loops beatbox (oral percussion) to create the drum tracks live, then adds multiple layers of guitar and other intstruments.One man creating the soundscape of a full band, a one of a kind live experience that has seen him in demand throughout the world.
A spectacular routine by DJ Unkut for the entry into the DMC Online DJ Championships 2011.
Unkut won the first round of the championship with his Godzilla Porn Routine.
The winner of the Online DJ Championship will join Champions from around the world at the DMC World Finals live event in London on the 6th/7th October 2011.
See the world’s scratch elite devour the new generation of NI Traktor DJ gear in this spectacular performance.
Hosted at QBert’s crib in San Francisco, a three-way jam session with DMC champs Qbert, Shiftee and Rafik performing on 4 turntables cutting it up fresh with Traktor Scratch Pro 2 and a single Traktor Audio 10. Check out the vid!!!
The MikidZ Show presents DJ Z-Trip gracing his presence in the DJcity.com studio. As expected Z-Trip threw down a monster set by showcasing on point cuts and live mashups. A majority of his set was prepped for the MikiDz Show so you may not hear a recording of this any where else.
There is a great interview with Z, a stream, download and vid of the session.
