Turntablism Meets Soul Music: Asian Hawk [Video]

Asian Hawk just destroyed a new set over at DJcityTV where he fuses a bit of R&B live performance with turntablism. The results are so DOPE. Great mic skills, great composition skills, and great turntable wizardry allows him to pull off a nice routine that is different than the others.

Asian Hawk just destroyed a new set over at DJcityTV where he fuses a bit of R&B live performance with turntablism. The results are so DOPE. Great mic skills, great composition skills, and great turntable wizardry allows him to pull off a nice routine that is different than the others. Asian Hawk uses a Traktor Kontrol Z2 mixer, a Traktor Kontrol F1, a footswitch, and a Numark TTX pro turntable to pull off this excellent routine. Big props to AH and DJcityTV for putting this up.

The 2013 Online DMC Championships of 2013 are going on right now and I'm constantly taking a look at the turntablists work to see who's doing what. Round 3 is now complete and Asian Hawk takes top honors with an incredible performance of scratching, juggling, drumming, and everything else in between. Check out Asian Hawks Round 3 winning performance as he rips it up on the Traktor Kontrol Z2 and a pair of Technics.

The Traktor Kontrol Z2 Mixer and Stanton ST-150 Super-OEM turntables are my battle weapons of choice. I have been using this setup for the last few years now and I always had a vinyl skin on each piece to make it look unique. It's about time to switch up the look, so I decided to contact our friends over at 12inchskinz.com to see what they had to offer. We decided to go with the "All-Gold-Everything" theme to change the Turntables & Mixer to have a loud gold appearance and we were NOT disappointed!
