DJ Revolution, King of The Decks In Stores Tomorrow

September 15, 2008

Yup, I’m grinding today. But that doesn’t mean I don’t have time to spread some good news. DJ Revolution’s King of The Decks hits stores tomorrow so make sure you got out and support! Check this clip of him at his home studio courtesy of Hard Knock TV.

DJ Revolution Prepares “King of The Decks” LP

July 30, 2008

DJ Revolution said in a recent interview, “the connection between the DJ and the emcee has been severed. King of The Decks is my attempt at reconnecting it.”

DJ Revolution has spent 15 years perfecting that craft on the SP 1200. He’s currently behind the wheels of the longest running Hip Hop show in the history of commercial radio, “THE WORLD FAMOUS WAKE UP SHOW alongside Sway & King Tech.

Aside from his weekly duties on the show based out of LA on Power 106, and syndicated Worldwide, he has lent his now infamous scratch techniques to countless records and his production skills to many established artists. REV has also taken his skillz to the far corners as the globe and ripped clubs in locations such as Japan, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. He has also shared the stage DJ’ing for many artists including legends like Rakim all the way to current superstars such as Kanye West. Revolution has released two of his own Full length LP’s “In 12’s we trust/R2K” and one with his partners Sway & Tech , “This or That.

As DJ Revolution readies KING OF THE DECKS, in stores on September 16th, he elaborated further on the issues of the lack of communication between the MC and THE DJ stating that it “is one of the most obvious reasons Hip Hop has devolved so drastically over the years. Since MC’s in general decided to toss aside the DJ as an asset and integral part of their success from production to performance, the music has suffered tremendously. My goal is to re-introduce to the world what a DJ is. He or She is not just a celebrity, or someone who plays records, or makes funny sounds with turntables. He or she is all of that and more. I recruited some of the most legendary and also most talented up and coming artists to help me express all of this within the context of the music.
