When I say DJ, you probably think of massive raves with a European guy behind two CDJs and a mixer. Not too long ago, the title of DJ in Hip-Hop was synonymous with party rocker and an integral part of any function. More and more people are picking up a pair of headphones and some turntables in order to become the next big international EDM DJ but there is a handful of those looking to preserve the art of turntablism. DJ Dwells is one of the latter. The New York DJ has grown in popularity for being the youngest DJ to win a regional DMC tournament and is looking to secure a World DMC belt before he turns 16.
He recently did an interview and laid down a routine that spans Diplomats, Ratking, and more. You can read up on the whole piece and watch the full video at the Digital DJ Pool website.
