- Опубликовано: 28 дек 2024
- 5x DMC World Champion DJ Craze takes things to the next level in this new turntablism routine, using TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO and the KONTROL X1 controller. Using the X1, Craze simultaneously triggers cue points on both decks, while still staying true to his roots with some serious beatjuggling.
By combining traditional vinyl techniques like juggling, scratching and body tricks with advanced controller-based functions such as cue point manipulation, tempo-synced effects and ultra-quick track changes, this performance showcases the cutting edge of turntablism and controllerism using the latest digital DJing technology.

he is banned from competing in the DMC Championships anymore because he has won to many times...
respect to a living legend
He isn't though. He simply abdicated his throne. Qbert did the same in other aspects of dj competition.
dope
Bro. This is the guy with that guitar case in the bar. Who then murks the murks
He was banned because he was destroying any hardware he can.
It's 2019 and this is still my favorite routine!
it’s 2023 and it’s still my favorite
@@cotyhoepfner9380it’s 2024 and it’s still my favorite
11 years ago I discovered this crazy routine. I'm still amazed today 😍
Same here!
i still remember when this just came out i was showing it to everyone i know and they were ALL hooked
The very first time I discovered dj craze and showed all my friends.
10 years ago this guy blew my
Mind
Same!
i watched this 12 years ago for the first time and it still blows my mind today. just unreal
6 years latter still brings me chills and brings back memories of having my own dvs system and now im a resident dj at one of the hottest clubs in my city
Yet no one has heard of you
@@roasty80 says the loser that uploads synth covers of his fav movie themes ur a pathetic loser
>This is what technology was SUPPOSED to be used for, not to just to "sync" 2 songs together and play songs like that through the party. THIS is a true DJ UTILIZING technology
Hey kids - notice that he's still able to maintain a beat and rhythm. Juggling doesn't have to mean atonal and arhythmic.
Now, if he did that on 2x SL1200's, with the original vinyl....now, THAT would be impressive!
He already did all that shit 10 years ago, dude is legend, doesn't have to prove anything anymore.
@Martyn Timmis
You're joking, right?
Steve. This guy is good. No doubt! But you cannot dispute someone if they did the same on vinyl dex?
It's Craze. He's been doing this on vinyl for decades. Moving to digital is simply evolution. Our job as DJ's is to do everything we can to please crowds. That's it. As a house DJ, I switched to digital because it means that instead of taking two 80lb cases with 200 records in them, I can take a hard drive with every track I've ever owned which means I can do a better job for my crowd. I can scratch on cdj's just as well as on vinyl. I can sample from movies, I can loop on the fly, I can set fixed cue points...Vinyl is fine, but to be competitive and to maximize out ability to please crowds, we've had to evolve beyond it.
With this video in mind specifically, I'll point out that he's still using vinyl - albeit control vinyls - but in addition to that, he's also integrated pads and samples, is using organic percussion techniques, and has constructed a scratch routing every bit as complex (if not a great deal more complex) than what was possible in the past. Would it be impressive if he did that with just vinyl? Sure. Would it be impressive if someone excavated a construction site with just a shovel? Yeah, clearly. Doesn't mean that it's efficient, though, or that it gets the job done well or that it's even possible.
As a DJ of 20 years who has played extensively on both vinyl and digital, I can tell you that it's not the medium that's important. It's what you do with it. Would it be fair to say that when Les Claypool plays his Whamola that he's not really playing an instrument?
Don't forget that when turntablism started, we were ridiculed by musicians who play organic instruments as "not actually doing anything" which any scratch DJ can tell you is absurd. Don't find yourself guilty of the same faulty logic.
what a routine!
listened to this as a kid 13 years ago.
Feels like visiting an old friend
This video is legendary, with the fact this marked the future direction of how vinyl turntablism would become today.
honestly. this is fantastic. I wish more dj's did it this way.
most people would prefer to just maintain one camera angle so we can observe and how he's actually scratching and playing
Some like the different angles so they can see how he's using the other equipment as well. I have the Scratch Pro 2 and have been thinking about getting a controller.
Most people can just shut up and quit bitchin
Song Name : Joker - City Hopper
Thank you. I have this on vinyl and couldn't remember what it was called. Ripping that shit out shortly 🙏
Hes the man and you know that,, he got flavor for over 20 years ,, omfg,, bow down to the master
So glad this guy still uses his old school skills in conjunction with the new stuff. Ya a lot of DJ's can do some cool stuff on the wheels but they look bored and are subsequently bor-ing. Thanks Craze for bringing a touch of the old school back n sounding flippin sweet while you do it!
GOLD 1200's!
Ron G, he has 3 sets of them.
no sync....like a fucking boss
Mix is good, but who the F listens to that garbage?
yeah, the most skilled turntablists are doin the ugliest edm-shit now, just no fun anymore
+Braeden Skoleski yes, but problem's still the same. The 2013 debate about dmc world champion Fly having preproduced had never taken place without that garbage
Your mother.
Awsome
I love traktor
Nice to see someone professional showing us how it’s truly done
Just plain out brilliant. God bless you DJ CRAZE! E.L. Cleveland, Ohio.
DJ Craze is the illest dude you could ever meet. hands down
still nasty in 2022
Still awesome 12 years later!
The fader at the bottom is called a Crossfader, you can use it for snaps between tracks.
The faders above it are the faders that patch to the decks.
One of the first scratchings i enjoy, really nice to let the songs come through and not just keep scratching :)!
practice every day. im learning myself and i was finally able to create my own beat through scratches today. its a fantastic feeling.
Normaly ther is envy betwen DJs, I am a old DJ, I have performe with lost of djs, around the occidental world for years, I can say , This guy is the last one of the good ones, to be a young guy he has the old stile with new gears, He is realy respected DJ, I haven 'e see lately some one better than Craze. Is a placer to wacth hes performance. great , bravo.
Those are DMC Championship decks you win for being the best man!
why do people even bother disliking things as good as this?
Iv never seen this kind of mixing b4. So far i like it and wish i had his set up.
You're gonna have to win the DMC world championship. They're the prize.
I Had To Watch This Video 3 Times to Actual Comprehend The Coolness That He Posseses Possess
See ,I can't stand this kind of music but this is talent.
This took some skill, some learning, some rhythm.....I respect this.
Going to see him live as my first edm event. This is incredible!
Probably the best Dj-Video, I`ve senn on youtube !!!
@dolphinnightmare the buttons are for effects and load samples/tunes onto the deck. You choose the sample/tune and click what deck you want it to load on. Then control on the deck same as a record.
This is only like the BEST PROMO for the product!!! Everyone is gonna wanna buy this now hehe
Hey Native, thanks for posting the awesome vid. Please keep'em comin.
first 42 seconds of this is complete Gold...
always come back to this video for inspiration, the man is craaayyyyyzayyyyy
I have no other words... , it's beautiful
I think I like the slow first half the best, but he is damn fast on the second half. Good stuff.
That's all skillz right there. Legend
i think ive seen this video over 20 times! just awesome
pretty cool video programming. I also like the automated edited tracks. and the fact that your able to just do tricks usually no longer than 3 mins... and then just power down and go into a new routine. pretty dope. though i wish the camera would just stay on 1 frame. but then again the flashy glam makes everything cooler to the average. woohoo! love me some video hype.
so sick! gonna check him live tonight in south florida tonight! yessss
this dudes a show stopper !! awesome !!
@ everyone asking: He's using a "dvs" (digital vinyl system) controlling Traktor Scratch Pro and a Kontrol X1. Nothing is coming from the vinyl per se... All the music and samples are on the computer. Traktor Scratch Pro can use 4 "decks" each configurable for tracks or samples so while he's controlling 2 tracks with dvs he's also triggering samples from two more "sample decks" with the X1. In addition he is juggling cue points set on the track decks. There's a lot going on in that mix and Craz
I wish there was a longer version of this..
The perfect beat! Greetings from Bulgaria, man!
those technics are not real gold, but the MAN is!
I can't stop watching it.
I got to spend time and hang out with him when he came to Phoenix AZ, got to pick him up from his hotel and chill with him lol, he even took like 20 fucking pictures with me and shit, dude was super fucking down to earth, he even looked for my friend DJ Don V and me to say good bye after his set was done..DJ CRAZE ALL DAY!!
@tnacrew hes just bringing in and out each channel real fast with the volume but on beat so it makes a neat effect
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
respect from Brussels
Nice how traktor doesn't hold him back here. Amazing talent from craze... what else from the beat juggling legend?
THAT MAN HAS EPIC TURNTABLES!!!
i just obtained traktor scratch pro and its AMAZING!
Those golden decks
you got some real talent Gee no question
amazing! we want that downtown!!!
i saw craze in a club a couple of days ago. he play for about 2 hours it was sick
2021 and this still slaps ❤️
That's what I'm talking about Gold turntables!!!! ,Nice
The Gold 1200's were given out to DMC World Champions back when Technics was still in business and sponsoring the DMC, so Craze must have 4 pairs of these at home^^
He has golden faceplates on in this video though, the stock faceplate is black.
Now that Rane is the main DMC sponsor, they give out golden Rane Sixty-Eight mixers to the winners.
Justin got me the Kontrol X1 thing (next to the laptop in the vid) for my birthday. I"m sure I'll sound just like DJ Craze now. Check out the other DJ Craze/Traktor vid that comes up in the RUclips search results too, it's pretty cool.
Cleanest Drop Ever. Period.
Cool he seems like he's actually having fun
Born to skill on technics Mk2... amazing
HARD!!!! - needs to be LONGER!!!... DAMN
I'm officially a fan!
Where can you cuy these turntables? For the love of awesomness
@tyinykiller5 cdjs are cd players used for DJing in general :P
You win gold plated decks as part of being the DMC Champion. Nice.
Hey, are guys going to make 4 channel mixer traktor like the z2?
Tune he Is mixing (Not the vocals) Is joker - city hopper
Ya sick ass set. Those are some sick ass technics too!!!!
alway been my favorite dj... dj craze iz da mane
please make more videos!!!
They are gold plated 1210s, which you can quite easily pick up if you win the DMC World Championships. Craze has a few pairs of them.
absolutely murdered it
look at that vinyl collection!
Nice mix right there!
@vladbmx1 the last one is called city hoper by joker but i dont know about the others
This gave me goosebumps...shits raw. wow wow wow
so how would you compare to dj magic mike
My favorite.. craze is the GOAT
I'd like to know how he set up his faders to control the filter. I've tried, and tried, but I can't get it to work like his can.
soooooo sick! can anyone tell me what turntables are that? I know they are tecnhics but what model? 1210? tell me in pm please!!
I WANT THESE TURNTABLES!!!!
@MyDJdnL Nah I was hyped he was rocking that. Raida was the man and a hero of mine. I'm actually going to a tribute event for him tomorrow in Brooklyn. A-Trak, Premiere, and The X-ecutioners are spinning for him. I've actually been trying to find that shirt. Hopefully they have they to purchase tomorrow.
what effect is applied to the volume faders at 16 seconds for a few moments
seems like the volume fader is programmed through the mixer itself, what kind of effect is happening? maybe a tone shift down? I'm digging that nicely
Meeean! What cameras were used? So good!
Dj Kentaro forever the DMC king!
esse rapaz é fera.. parabéns!!
Not too sure. One of the tracks is by Joker called New City Hopper.
I want these mixes holy shit
you got me into this shit and now nobody can take me out this game!
@ 0:25 what is it called when you chop up the sounds using bolth hands on one volume instead of the crossfader
i just came from a dj dummy channel and people said dummy was colder than this guy craze.I never heard of any of them so i came here to see for myself this dude hands down is better dj dummy.
Best DJ of all times
