Live Turntablism & Scratching Sets
Forget pre-mixed playlists. I bring raw energy, live scratching, and spontaneous mashups to the console. This is what happens when music turns into total mayhem.
This is the energy I bring. A killer session at Geist Brewing Co., with the crowd going wild. When I'm on the decks, we create mayhem together.
It's all in the hands. Here I am in my crib, drilling the Crab Scratch. Turntablism is about turning these decks into an instrument, and practice is everything.
A throwback to the 'War of the DJs' competition in 2014. Seeing this little one feel the beat was the best part of the night. My music is for everyone who loves to move.
A daytime session for a Red Bull event. Whether it's day or night, I bring my A-game, mixing and scratching live on my Pioneer DJ setup.
Mastering the openfader scratch, practicing with both hands to get it right. And for everyone who thinks I'm bald, my hair is just fine, I just love my caps.
In the zone at a club night. The lights, the crowd, the music, this is where I feel at home. Just pure, raw energy on the dancefloor.
Even during lockdown, the music didn't stop. Here's a shot from my 'Stress Buster Sessions', a virtual set I did to keep the vibes going.
Just messing around at home and creating a live mashup of Backstreet Boys and Vanilla Ice. If it sounds wild, I'll try it. No pre-made playlists, just real-time creativity.
About Featured
When you book me for a set, you aren't getting background music. You are getting 30 to 90 minutes of live vinyl manipulation, beat juggling, and real-time remixing. I bring my own professional turntables and battle mixer to the venue, so all I need from your side is the sound system.
My sets are built for people who want a live performance, not just a DJ pressing play. Whether it is a high-octane 30-minute showcase or a 2-hour hybrid party set, I treat the deck like a musical instrument.
Why Book a Turntablist?
If you are tired of the same radio edits at every party, this is the fix. I use techniques like Crab Scratching and faderless tricks to chop up tracks live. If the crowd is feeling an old-school hip-hop vibe, I will flip it into a Tamil Kuthu remix on the spot.
What I Bring to the Floor
- Live Mashups: I don't use pre-made playlists. I take requests and mix them live, creating sounds that have never been heard before.
- Professional Gear: I travel with my own Pioneer turntables, battle mixers, and Phase DJ systems to ensure the sound quality is crisp.
- Crowd Connection: I read the energy of the room. If the dancefloor needs more heat, I push the tempo. If it is a cocktail hour, I keep the groove smooth.
I have been at this since 2014, including being a runner-up at the War of the DJs in Bangalore. I know how to handle the pressure of a live event and keep the mayhem going from start to finish. If you want your next event to have that raw, authentic musical edge, let's talk.
