DJ Craze performs on Traktor Scratch Pro 2


In this video, the 5x DMC World Champion showcases the newest TRAKTOR SCRATCH generation which is hitting stores worldwide today. Craze uses his TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 digital vinyl system to create a live dubstep remix, controlled by his golden Technics turntables and two DJ controllers.

TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 is used for playing a live beat using one-shot drum samples in TRAKTOR's Sample Decks -- while he fires off various other samples and trigger cue points with his signature white MASCHINE unit. A beat juggling section in the middle leads to the finale where Craze combines fast cue point juggles, vocal samples and TRAKTOR effects.

This Turntable Tricknology routine perfectly highlights the power and unlimited creative potential of the newest TRAKTOR generation. Watch more videos and get further information on the new generation of TRAKTOR DJ products here: http://www.native-instruments.com/traktor

KRS-One takes his son record shopping.


What's in KRS One's bag as he takes his son (who is a DJ) record (or should i say CD) shopping.

KRS-One is an MC, philosopher, activist, author, and lecturer. KRS-One spent his teen years in a homeless shelter in Brooklyn, and it was there he met a counselor named Scott Sterling (aka Scott La Rock). Together they formed Boogie Down Productions in the mid-1980s, releasing their debut album, Criminal Minded (M.I.L. Multimedia), in 1987. Sterling was killed in 1987 and shortly after KRS-One founded the Stop the Violence Movement to address violence in the Hip-Hop community. In 1983, he released his first solo album, Return of the Boom Bap (Jive). To date, KRS-One, also known as "The Teacha," has released 19 full-length albums, has given over 500 lectures, and written three books, The Gospel of Hip Hop: First Instrument (2010), Ruminations (2003), andThe Science of Rap (1995). KRS-One was given the BET Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008 for his work with the Stop The Violence Movement and his contribution to Hip-Hop.
