Buy DJ AM’s Records In Hollywood

For close to a decade, DJ AM defined the Hollywood party scene—his celebrity status sometimes overshadowing appreciation for his skills behind the decks and his (usually) amazing taste in tunes. A year after the DJs high-profile death, his records are being sold for charity at that most hipster of Hollywood venues, The Cobrasnake Shop Cobranake in the Highland and Hollywood mall (6801 Hollywood Blvd).

The sale takes place from Friday Nov. 12 until Sunday Nov. 14, with 100% of proceeds going to the DJ AM Memorial Fund to help fight drug and alcohol addiction.

A-Trak told URB that he obviously considered the appearance of taking over for his friend AM, but concluded  “at the end of the day, the deciding factor is that Travis wants to do it.
