Never get tired of seeing this. I like when the wrist band goes on. I did get some for my sessions thinking it was my tribute to Vajra for influencing and inspiring me !!! So when people ask why the wrist bands at my shows now ya know !!!
All I can say and one should say is that this performance is simply amazing. All my my DJ Vajra. The control demonstrated on the tables coupled with speed, accuracy and creativity is unmatched. Being a champ means you always have be looking over your shoulder. Keep being unique and creative! Thank you for sharing
FINALLY!!! Lol Having followed and watched you for as long as I have. We all knew it was a matter of time before you won the DMC. We needed you to win at a time like this too. A perfect combination of 2011 technicality (serato) with that real turntablist 90's FUNK!!!! Congratulations man, well deserved and long overdue!!! Such a clean refreshing change from all the current "white noise" sets we've been seeing and hearing for the last few years! Keep doing what you're doing!!!
My cousin was showing me his new turn table setup and I thought he was amazing but he told me to look up DJ Vajra as soon as I got home if I wanted to see the best DJ...It's safe to say you're the best DJ I have ever seen perform Vajra you kick a ton of ass man. Keep it up
There should be 5 more stars above simply amazing that set captures a new standard for turntablist. Past and future have met and now more creativness and inovative styles can become a reality. Thanks for raising the bar Vajra this set is legendary ! WOW
Hours of practice everyday, dedication, imagination and a god given talent with even more practice may not get you to the level of DJ Vajira. I wish I had half the skills as those who compete in the DMC. Good luck to my man DJ Manwell May 12th DMC LA
Hey Vajra, I remember back in 2005 when I copped your "Saul Good Mixtape" thinking to myself, man this cat knows what's up. Glad to see you reap the rewards of all your hard work. Congrats bro. - DJ Sir Edgar
Well that was proper sick and also explains why I didn't see you place/win on the online DMC comp. Congratulations been a long time deserved and a long time coming.
Thanks for sharing this, homie. Your little tribute to Metallica's "One" is a nice reminder that the turntable is a truly one of the best musical instruments on the planet.
Homie........ NASTY! Rounddddddddd of applause! Loved the routine you did for Serato as well. Keep doing it man! Very nice!!!! Real DJ's stand up!!!!! (Vajra...... this is where you stand up)!!
It'll be a long time before anyone pushes the boundries as far as he has. Just the most well executed set and insane combos. Good job V, you did real well!
@DJMikePress i love the routine..but as a fan i cant help but wonder if past champions...had the same weaponry to go to war with...Not taking anything away from vajra or nor do i have anything agaisnt serato...i just wish the dmc wouldve stayed as it was
Big props on bringing world title to little ole Colorado..when you going to post some vids with that gold six8..and that Traktor I got from ya works good bro thanks again???
@DjStreetFighta I kind of agree, Spinbad's are clean as well but Vajra still takes it for me. It's what I love about him he's not above doing old school cuts incredibly well. Remember getting my first Rectangle battle wax followed by his first mix tape and just being shocked, I was a deep house d.j at the time.
Dj Vajra , you're dope because you still retained the 90's FLAVA in your style, and yet your set is modern into the 21st century, unlike alot of the overly complex electro shit nowadays found in alot of the champion routines.
I remember seeing you from 2006 or so when you were dubbed 'the percussionist' and thought you were one of the best then, technology has moved on sooo much now, way past my technical ability but what people don't realise is you could do most of this routine on 'normal' vinyl ;)
You see this is what the DMC's and the turntablist scene have been missing for some time. The "FUNKY" reach into your "SOUL" type routines. The last couple of years it's been so robotic with the same scratches and juggles. My man straight brought that ish back to the "hey days" of battling and then brought it forward using technology. That's how you win with integrity!
@showbizben though they could possibly rule you had to use Serato in Absolute mode to keep it truer to the roots, not sure if Vajra's doing this but know he's good enough to so doesn't matter anyway.
Nice scratching, it is good to see a real DJ. There is so many out there today that cheat with just the Computer and scratch disks. Technics SL 1200 M2s are the ones I used to use in the 90s. Many people don;t understand the complexity required to be a DMC.
Does anyone know how he is putting the effect on the drumming at 2.00 onwards? sounds ill / also who remembers when Ice-T called him Dj VIAGRA at the 01 US finals fknlol, dude deserves the title
@sliikz 1,tighten the hole in the record, sticky label over hole, pin prick and slide over spindle pin,2. hight + weight your carts right.. what you got? 3. anti skip to 0,

Varjra, you are a fine ambassador for the ever evolving world of turntabilism! Salute!
Finally a DMC winner who truly deserves it! A perfect combination of skills, good selection and technologies. Much respect!
Tight routine & nicely arranged!
FINALLY!!! Lol

Keep doing what you're doing!!!
This is by far the coolest DMC set I have ever heard, and I am a HUGE fan of DJ Kentaro's DMC championship routine.
one of the illest sets i've ever seen!! and definitely well deserved!!!! peace from Greece!!
I never seen anything like that super human speed thaaaaats craaaaaaaazy!!!
MASTER OF THE MIX FOR REAL REGARDLESS OF A TITLE/SHOW!!!
It was about time to see you world champion! ! I'm so happy now! keep doing yo thing DJ VAJRA!
Congrads after all the years! I always rooted for Vajra, he always had to go against legendary dudes in the past. Now it's his time to shine
My cousin was showing me his new turn table setup and I thought he was amazing but he told me to look up DJ Vajra as soon as I got home if I wanted to see the best DJ...It's safe to say you're the best DJ I have ever seen perform Vajra you kick a ton of ass man. Keep it up
One of the best dmc sets i've ever seen. Amazing!
I like how the fader is moving so fast at the end that the camera's frame rate can't even keep up. That last bit was insane.
There should be 5 more stars above simply amazing that set captures a new standard for turntablist. Past and future have met and now more creativness and inovative styles can become a reality. Thanks for raising the bar Vajra this set is legendary ! WOW

Love the mix Vajra. Let the haters hate and the players play.
Real DJ's don't have time to troll because they are practicing their cuts. Great shit Vajra.

🎶💿💽💻🔊🎧🎤
@DjStreetFighta I kind of agree, Spinbad's are clean as well but Vajra still takes it for me. It's what I love about him he's not above doing old school cuts incredibly well.
