This is an old clip from when A-Trak was the DJ for Kanye’s tour… He may still be, but I don’t know, what I do know is that A-Trak is amazing. I bought his DVD (Sunglasses Is A Must) a while back and recently bought his CD (Dirty South Dance) and they are both incredible. His CD is a compilation of straight up mash ups, and probably some of the best mash ups I’ve ever heard, and at the end you get a taste of what make him famous in the first place.
The dude has been mixing since his early years and was proclaimed DMC champion when he was 18 year of age… If thats not enough to convince you that he’s got skills, then I don’t know what can. To sum up A-trak in a sentence I would just say that he’s mad fresh and mad retro at the same time.
Catch him on the Fool’s Gold Tour 2007 with DJ Mehdi, Kavinsky, Kid Sister, and Cool Kids.
