This is just amazing!!! I wish I could have seen one of the shows they did. You think they will come to Belgium? Hmmm… I think not but this video tells a lot of what they bring and what’s to expect.

SKRATCH BASTID

Another great dj I’ve been following for some years. The first video I saw from him was taken at ‘Scribble Jam’ a contest for dj’s and freestyle rappers. He won that one and I became a fan! Years later his doing big things with Redbull as you can see on the video below. Hope to see him in Belgium soon…

RIP DJ AM

Adam Goldstein Aka DJ AM attends the BPM Magazine's 12th Anniversary  at the Avalon on July 16, 2008 in Los Angeles, California.

NEW YORK – DJ AM, the celebrity disc jockey who publicly acknowledged his history of drug addiction and had filmed a reality show in which he offered to help other addicts, was found dead in his apartment. He was 36.

Police found a crack pipe and prescription pills in the Manhattan apartment, said a law enforcement official, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing. Paramedics had to break down the door before they found him, shirtless and wearing sweatpants, in his bed around 5:20 p.m. on Friday, the official said.

A friend had called police to say he was unable to get into the home in the trendy SoHo neighborhood. There was no evidence of foul play, and a medical examiner will determine the cause of death.

The world lost a great dj again. He was really a big example for me and thousands of others. He inspired dj’s and drug addicts to become better and greater than before. I still watch youtube video’s of this guy’s great mixing and scratching skills… unbelievable how good he was!

Rest in peace.
