It became obvious to me after seeing all the footage of the party last weekend, that I still hadn't captured me mixing at all. Today I'm gonna let you watch me rehearsing an Old School Hip-Hop routine WITH A TWIST. I'm not gonna wait for any breaks in the songs to mix, just plowing straight through the classics. In other words: I'm going to try and get as many songs into the video as possible. In this way, those who know all the songs will get the most of out of it. I hope you enjoy the show. Welcome to DJ Practice!

THIS IS STRICTLY OLD SCHOOL!
