Review

This is how you turn a party out! With 4 turntables, a microphone, some drum machines and a mario bros. hand puppet.

With his legendary turntablism, RJ does it in style. Solo on stage (we missed his backing band that accompanied him on his US tour), he runs back and forth from one end of the 4 meter-long stage setup, grabbing precious vinyl out of his DJ bag and selecting the best breaks and loops that will make the crowd bounce.

He does it all and he does it well, including a "respect to Guru" segment late in the set.

Many thanks for the show, great performance.

RJD2 (born Ramble John "RJ" Krohn on May 27, 1976) is an American music producer, singer and musician. RJD2 was born in Eugene,Oregon, and raised in Columbus, Ohio. He currently resides in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was signed to the Definitive Jux label where he released two largely instrumental hip hop albums and has produced tracks for many prominent rappers. However, he has now left Def Jux and has signed with XL Recordings.[1] His 2007 album, The Third Hand, is a striking departure from his usual style and features RJD2 singing and playing instruments on nearly every track.
In 2009, RJD2 established his own label, RJ’s Electrical Connections and reissued three early records as well as a box set. RJD2’s new full length The Colossus was released on January 19, 2010 on his new label, which is distributed by The Orchard.
