melo told me when switched back the mixer..one of the rca cords to the turntables came loose....what's even more surprising is that he took college seriously and got a degree.. he didn't just practice all day.. melo is a brilliant guy

i agree with kurth83. A lot of battle djs can do awesome tricks but they aren't as smooth. Sometimes the complexity of the routines overshadows the importance of the flow of the music. I like Melo D and JRocc cause they have skill, but can keep it smooth and listenable.

at 2:28 to all the new school heads before the 'hamster switch' was standard on all dj battle mixers....in the original vid, melo-D flipped the entire mixer upside down so he can beat juggle regular because he scratches hamster...dunno why it was edited out of this video...

I was there. the reason for that slice right before the Special Ed routine is because Melo was having some technical difficulties and had to start over.
