Master turntablist DJ Roc Raida (B. Anthony Williams) passed away today. Part of the original DJ collective and turntablist group the X-ecutioners, (formerly known as X-Men), Raida’s vinyl exploits quickly earned him a reputation as one of the best DJs in the world. He captured the DMC World DJ Championship in 1995 with his superb beat-juggling, seamless mixing, and flawless, ambidextrous execution. He was so talented, he could literally spin with his arms behind his back. Not only a master of the turntables, Raida was also an accomplished martial artist.
He was most recently on tour with Busta Rhymes. Busta expressed his condolences over Twitter, “I am sorry 2 say that on this day at 2:05 Sept 19th we lost another incredible life…Dj Roc Raida died 2day my personal Dj is gone… I …

The legendary DJ Grandmaster Flash recently put on a little clinic in the Bronx, spinning strictly vinyl records for the gathering audience.
Long ago, Diplo was just like the millions of DJs who now follow him, eager to show off his beats and let the world know who he was. In this video, he runs around like a little kid showing off his Casio, street team posters, and promoting his LP “Florida”. It’s a nice reminder that everybody starts somewhere, and where you go from there is up to you. There is also footage of Diplo DJing one of the funniest school dances I have ever seen.

Tanner Ross grew up as much a fan of horror movies as he was of electronic music. It was this combination of interests that helped spawn the haunted techno sound that has had the electronic music scene buzzing for the past year. In Mar, Tanner and partner James Watts debuted Voodeux’s live set to an intimate crowd in Detroit. The response was overwhelmingly positive. Now with the recent release of their first LP, The Paranormal, the accolades only continue to roll in. Tanner talked with us a bit about the creative process and where Voodeux’s music fits into the big picture. He also took time to discuss some of his musical influences, not to mention list a few of his favorite all time horror movies.
