I was at this show...my first time seeing A-Trak...it was really
surprising. I kept seeing this little(and i mean small..realllly
young) kid hanging out with the DJ's, and i was thinking maybe he was
the brother of a DJ or something...then a couple sets later he hit
the decks and ripped shit up...absolutely amazing...if you want to
see a talented KID, A-Trak should impress you enough. How do you get
such skills so young? Chalk it up to raw talent? I wonder when this
kid started DJing, because i just never had such musical and rhythmic
sense at that age...wow!
