2many djs :slight_smile:

dj enferno

also look into the tutorial video on here with ean golden mixing whole lotta love into pendulum

I combined some of the above people’s ideas and made a short 20 min mix, it’s a bit sloppy but it was improvised. Not to shamelessly selfpromote but it’s got some good ideas in it that might inspire you →

dj am, dj enferno, dj shortee, travis barker DJ am combo. travis barker a-trak combo. the list goes on.

There are some good vids of DJ AM up on youtube.

strictly kev + dk

check out solidsteelradio at the ninjatune records site

z-trip, dj p

I’ve heard dj shadow’s live sets and he bounces around a bit.

love :d

Never heard DJ AM play house. He may have thrown a pop house sample (David Guetta, Daft Punk, etc.) over some beats, but don’t insult the house that house built by insinuating that DJ AM played house. He is a hip-hop 80’s masher who had some talent on Serato. He also was a heavy drug user and threw away his life.

Amazed nobody has said Adam Freeland.

yeah lots of the turntablist guys cover a bit of everything. shadow, craze, q-bert, z-trip, kid koala, kentaro etc. etc.

also check out some C2C mixes or videos, they’re like the all time team dj dmc champs. their sets are so eclectic and the turntablism is just bang on.

Depends how mashed you want to go, a few examples:-

For a real mixed bag try these mix albums:-
DJ Food & DK - Now listen again
Coldcut - 70 Minutes of Madness (from '93 but still sounds awesome today)

Meat Katie plays a kind of House/ breaks/ techno crossover and sounds awesome! Worth a look if you haven’t listened to him before.

Mr Scruff is always a good shout, search for him on Soundcloud as he always puts MAMMOTH 5 hour sets on there which literally go through nearly every genre you can think of. (people have already mentioned Ninja Tune who DJ Food and Mr Scruff are signed to, they have a soundcloud page too).

Try nu-rave.com if you like the old skool/ Indie/ hardcore/ rave sound as they do podcasts and a radio show.

Girl Talk, Yacht Club DJs, Purple Sneaker DJs

I’ve listened to many live sets that AM played house. It depends on the venue he played at but I agree that he’s mainly a hip-hop mash-up DJ.
