Montreal, late 90's early 2000's at Blizzart with the Brass Knuckles Crew and the Macklovitch brothers. Good music, good vibes. Lots of good memories. Those were the days. It is good to see he kept on pushing through all these years. A+

Some could argue that A-Trak might be a true DJ, but some of his current colleagues, ala Diplo, ala Steve Aoki, ala Skrillex are not DJ's. They are good in entertaining the crowd, but the walk with a DJ stamp on their heads is wrong and offensive to true DJ's like Premier, Rock, etc...
@Mewzyc
@Mewzyc 6 жыл бұрын
i guess different style of DJ. a-trak is the scratching and turntablism type; the old school hip-hop; aka real OG DJ.

@nathan_johnson 6 жыл бұрын
You have zero idea what you are talking about when it comes to Skrillex. He's gotten the seal of approval from pretty much any 'true dj' that's ever seen him live. He is not a scratch dj, but he has mad skills.
@NeonKue
@NeonKue 6 жыл бұрын
Those guys are mainly producers. Some have little if any true DJ skills. DJing is just a platform for Producers to showcase their music. The DJ stamp just lost its definition like a lot of mainstream labels and was just accepted by majority of people as someone who presses buttons behind a table on stage. People still mistaken Rappers as Singers these days too.
