DMC 2002 Dj Kentaro

[@BF4pawntard]

20 years Later this is the pinnacle of turntablism . Nothing since has come remotely close and don’t think it ever will. Simply the greatest performance ever .

[@bossmanfucktheworld]

It went downhill from here 😔

[@bonafontciel]

This is still one of my most watched DMC routines

[@abp1400]

On REAL VINYL at that!

[@andypandy7151]

I rewatch this every year or so. It’s one of those performances that keeps getting better throughout the routine. Absolute master class, I’ve never seen anything close to this level. Kentaro is a legend.

[@djdeemz7651]

​@@bossmanfucktheworldall the good djs still scared to enter just incase he does again 😂😂😂

[@MusicRadarClan]

Who the fuck can dislike 6 minutes of a genius of Djing performing?? One of the best winning sessions of DMC history.

[@jesuschinchilla7019]

Music Radar Clan baia baia... qué tenemos aquí? Jajaja, grandísimo contenido el que haces, sigue así.

[@epoblete]

Buenísimo, lo vi gracias a tu link el dejado hoy. Saludos, desde Chile.

Best routine in the history of DMC his accuracy is amazing.

[@yoheilespaul]

当時バトルDJがいなかった仙台からよくこんな世界一のDJが誕生したもんだ

[@sastal]

He won with this one in 2002. It is one of the best performances I have ever seen at DMC finals. Kentaro is incredible.

[@austinmonroe3894]

Agreed. His 2001 set with that disc with all the tape on it is nothing to be ashamed of either though!

[@undivided_unified]

i remember the goose bumps and awe i felt when i watched this 15 years ago. I still refer to this set when "kids" talk about DJ'ing ... this is masterclass skills still in 2019 and do you see a laptop anywhere, NO YOU DONT!! This is putting little stickers on where to place that needle. Dedication, practice, beat matching .... JUST GOD DAMN SKILLS! To all those who are discovering this for the first time, enjoy!

[@renemaier5197]

Nice man

[@Jacob-2796]

So angry. Chill and enjoy without hating on younger generations

[@nobswift]

when i saw this one for the first time, i felt like: damn, this is how a dj set has to be done. it seems to be impossible to do something like that. there aint a second that is wasted.. it is a set that shows 100% skill. ive seen a lot of dj sets, but this one belongs to one of the craziest and best sets ive ever seen. respect this guy for this set!

[@djrym]

Vinyl世代のDMCでは世界最高峰ルーティーン!Kentaroさんのご意見どおり、DMCにVinyl部門を創設すべき!ハウスのパートに入った後のイコライザーを交えたジャグリングで針飛び！しかし見事にリカバリ～後半のReggaeへのビート＆メロディーチェンジはジャッジも鳥肌！ In the vinyl generation DMC, the world's highest routine! According to Kentaro's opinion, a vinyl section should be created in the DMC! Juggling with an equalizer after entering the house part makes a needle jump! However, the recovery and the beat and melody change to Reggae in the latter half of the season were wonderfully judged by the judges!

[@Zeronineeito]

見事、Yukichiさんや他の日本人の方がぶちかましてくれましたね。 あの部門の今後にも期待です。

[@davidnicolas8019]

What I really like about this set as opposed to others is that it’s actually music. Some of the turntableists are technically great but they don’t have a musical or melodic flow. This shit is just next level.

[@rcayabyab8994]

This…. You can just listen to audio only and it’s basically like a single track all composed in two turntables… Definitely the greatest DMC Set of all time!

[@01cv42]

何度見ても邪馬台国で笑う

[@Anubis2828]

This is my favorite set of all time

[@captinweestain526]

You ned to see more routines

[@andypandy7151]

Me too. The combinations, pure skills, and creativity are kinda mind blowing. The announcer was pretty accurate!

[@liddle13]

Maybe the best DMC Final set ever?

[@austinmonroe3894]

Yes.

[@conekeiba]

一本の映画を観たような満足感

[@delbisluciano893]

Probably the best DMC performance ever. The ultimate creativity of Turntablism. Simply Legendary Kentaro.

[@DJadan4u]

more creativity in 6 minutes than martin garrix in his 2h set

[@djuroue]

more creativity than martin garrix in his whole job .

[@anatole3993]

more creativity than in all tomorrowland dj's together

[@jonmanuelreyes7588]

more creativity than all EDM djs from past, present and future.

[@djdeemz7651]

This was pre James hype days 😂😂😂😂 when that fool says he most “risky” dj on earth I send him this video

[@tsukai1]

It's 2019, this is still my absolute favorite set.

[@yosukehirano8410]

何度観てもすごいとしか言いようがない。。

[@pdubz1392]

never gets old..this was the greatest dmc ever imho

[@1CrazyDJ4U]

By far the most creative DMC set by any DJ by far

[@Shitfuck341]

100%, the whole thing is breaks. It’s unreal

[@akf2000]

this is so amazing, he's using the turntables like instruments, a true artist.

[@inditiva6203]

Turntables are percussive instruments

[@Manakaiser]

Only perfect score ever achieved in DMC history, and today is januray 2012. this guy is a legend.

[@smortboi2374]

Bombastic comment pull

[@danilolima412]

Track 2:00 - GTS feat Loleatta Holloway - Jason Jinx Dub After 10yr seaching...i found! Kentaro is the best!

[@fexmealux]

Five years that I try the title. I LOVE YOU

[@alimbekakhmetzhanov69]

hi Danilo ! you are cool man! thanks im also cant find this track. you make a big help by this comment. thank you bro.

[@JamesBrewerDJ]

I haven't watched this in about three years.....listened to it all again and still got goose bumps. The shit he does is mental!

[@illmack8272]

何度見ても気持ちいい！最高！

[@HeartWerk]

I miss DMC's being super creative like this.

[@lifgo69]

I don't care what anyone says, This is the best set ever!!! Funny, First time i have seen a video with zero dislikes, how can anyone dislike this.

[@petrokemikal]

Ahh the good old days.. No shit I genuinely went to colledge back in 2003 for a subject called dj techniques and music production, Spent a year learning how to mix and scratch, legit one of my final tests was to produce a scratch mictape for my lecturer.. Used to study watching this shit all the time.. My fav was kentaros shuriken cut.. That blew my mind all the time..

[@soyoblitz4312]

Easily my favourite DMC set. Just genius

[@MouseCIick]

this is real DJ..

[@kevinchetty8340]

DJ Kentaro is one of the best Djs in the world......In my eyes he is a legend & this is one of the best scratch routines i have heard. Djs should learn from this guys.

[@daledgend1981]

with out a doubt the best and most original DJ ever

[@DjRavine]

Haha does the MC's voice break at 5 seconds?

[@produKtNZ]

Aft6er 14 years and no-one has replied =_= This was the final set - i'd be a bit rough around the edges too :)

[@austinmonroe3894]

Been loving that part for over 20 years!! 🤣❤️💯

[@austinmonroe3894]

And his “WTF!” right after Kentaro finished. 🥇💯

[@niqqppin]

Awesome how he loses it a bit at 2:22 and still fixes it and makes it sound dope AF. Crazy skills

[@T0mB1ll]

yep, record skipped, and messed up 4/4 beat... but he recovered like a boss :D

You Are One Unbelievable DJ..... I believe you we're born to do this.... all the imagination and combination styles..... Keep Up The Good Work.......

[@hereforthefreewater]

DJ Kentaro live is awesome. He can keep going like this for hours

[@gamerairways]

When I think about turntablism I always come back to this one, legendary

[@jrBenzi]

is it just me or its like 9 nearly 10 years ago this set was produced and people visit and comment every hour still, got to go down as one of the best ever

[@estebanf.l.9831]

And here we have a piece of history, in 6 min.

[@uspdjs216]

One of the greatest sets in history

[@owenr.barilla3870]

MusicRadarClan!

[@seanybyne1982]

He toured the uk that year he won this dmc. I worked in Manchester at the time for a club called Sankeys soap. I have a polariod of me and him at an after party somewhere. They were great days. Great music, social interactions, no social media or phones interupting real human connection.

[@MastaEss]

@MrRuffnecks Have to agree with you there, this is easily the best set i've heard. It never fails to convert a skeptic into a believer! The problem with most technically gifted DJs is they focus too much on showing off their technical ability (almost as if they're trying too hard to prove a point?) and neglect the artistic side. Kentaro maintains a vibe throughout the whole set... And he makes the technical stuff look like childs play. That's a true professional.

[@_theporkchopexpress]

16 years on and it’s still top drawer quality

[@grapla]

Kentaro = one of my fav Djs. Killed it!! set was from 2002 and I still bug out today when i see this set.

[@lustforlow-end6022]

I love the bit where he’s juggling with the turntable motors off, sounds so good 😎

[@iidjkg]

Legendary DJ set.

[@fridmanator]

I've watched all the champion set after 2002 and still no one matched this set I think it's unbelivble

[@DataCollaborate]

AWESOME MIX... ithink it has some of smooth hip-hop, minimal, techno and house

[@8KY8]

Oh man, this set is so sick. I just love how he incorporates and meshes those genres.

[@chrisperea]

So clean.. sounds like an actual full on track!

[@djlala]

i agree i have this video as well and Kentaro just straightout set himself apart from everyone else with this set .. and probably one of the best set i've ever heard from any DMC battles .. mad props ..

[@vmbo]

The thing I like about Kentaro compared to other turntablists/battle DJs is that he doesn't just have crazy skills, it also sounds great and you can still dance to it. He has a great ear for good music.

[@Supervillain85]

still one of the gratest juggler i've seen

[@NeoSpeedbreaker]

"One of the greatest sets of all time. " Say it out loud and proud.

Why do i always end up coming back and watching the vid ? answer because its awesome!

I love the bit where he juggles with the turntables motors off, so good 😊

Kentaro is off the chain! All his stuff is insane!

arguable that he won 2001 also. That was also an amazing routine.

His set reminds me of those Benami Beatmania games that I used to play in the arcade in and in The Playstation.

[@rosshill9619]

This is still the gold standard. 2 turntables and a 2 channel mixer. None of this button pushing stuff nowadays
