Hottest routine ive ever heard. Just came back after like 3 years... this is still the god damn gold standard for me. So fluid and musical the whole time. Killer shit.
I agree. DMC is bullshit now, all just young people scratching the records like they've got fleas. Sounds like the black-box recording of a plane crash. This; however, is actually ear-friendly and head-bop-able.
All the other DJs in the competition forgot the most important component. Musicality. They were so focused on scratching, being fancy, and playing with the music, they forgot to keep a steady flow going. I'm glad there are still DJs who care about the music as well as the manipulation. Keep on keepin' on Brace!
I'm 47 years old and that is hands down the best turntablism routine I have ever heard. Genuinely gobsmacked at the level of technical skill and creativity. Fuck, I need to lie down GOD DAMN
I like the fact that this is funky. Most scratching be seeming like DJs who just want to scratch the fastest without paying zero attention to rhythm and honestly just making noise.
When you're a DJ yourself but you can't quite keep up with how Brace is doing this all in a musical package... THAT'S why I keep comin back to watch this!!! Genius.
Whoa. I'm from the REAL old school, 1980s east coast. I've literally never seen anyone rock two decks like this. Makes me wonder who are the 400 losers who gave this video a thumbs down?
this really set the gold standard for DMC routines and turntablism as a whole. still untouched. nobody has even come close to a set this tight, let alone this creative.
Damn listening to Ancient Astronauts-still a soldier, and was like man where is this fire sample from I know I’ve heard it somewhere then it hit me all at once… Came back to watch the set again after all these years and it still makes my eyes water. Such a perfectly executed routine.
Holy feck. This is the first time in 20 or so years I've seen/heard a turntablist really move things on from where Q-bert took the scene in the mid-90s. Genuinely awesome.
This is genuinely the best routine I've ever personally watched. Absolute perfection, technique was amazing, everything lined up perfectly, not a single slipped beat, beat juggling was perfect and sounded natural, scratching with the guitar was eargasm. Most importantly though, it sounded like music and not just like a load of random noises like when the pro DMC DJs do it. If you'll excuse me I'm gonna watch it again.
@@20thcenturyfoxy55 rafik, lig one and C2c also drop these more fluid , musical kinda routines. For a few years everyone just thought u needed a Le Jad beat 😂
Absolutly blown away ive been watching these dmc championships from 94 and this is the best ive ever seen scratching is inbelievable , your a turntable genius.
I've watched this routine repeatedly over the last few weeks. There's so much tech and variety it's damn impressive. The fretless fader is next level I hope to see more of it in future DMCs. Congrats man
I've not seen DMC finals stuff since about 2001...this might just be the greatest thing I've ever seen on the Internet. Unreal skills, innovation and talent off the chart. Take a bow sir....mind blown. Liked, shared, commented.
Without question one of the most creative efforts across the decks for any turntablist. Great work Brace, you hard work to perfect your craft will inspire many to come.
I Dj'ed house and techno back in the day but you sir are a masterful Dj and I could never pull that kind of stuff off ever and that's one of the best DMC sets I've seen, fantastic job.
This is the first time Ive seen this, and now I see what all the talk was about! That routine was crazy dope! Technicality and Musicality, Nice flow. I can watch this over and over.
At 44yrs old I've seen a lot of DJ mixes from early 90's until now - This is 'THE' best DJ mix I've ever. If it's not then send me the link to what better because I've never seen it. This set as hit all - The music flows, skills are unreal, beat juggling that actually sounds good and as for the mixer/slider thing on the WTF is that? The perfect set. #No1....FACT!!
People wonder what happiness is....being capable of doing this-and doing it beside the ocean would seriously - for me, bring me inner peace and fulfilment. Even if nobody ever seen it.
Wow... I am in awe... and a little stunned by what I've just watched, absolute MURDER on those decks my man. You take it to a whole new level, mastery doesn't even cover it... haha I loved the "I'll whoop that ASS" sample, slipped in there in there, in the midst of some other deck defying display... murdered it right there, the fretless fader and wah peddle where just absolutely out of this world.. the creativity on display here is mind numbing.
ClectaSkiMusic yep he called to see how the night before and said I'm getting ready to do a mixtape video and I want you to make sure you drop by and I'll give you some bird seed for for payment
Growing up listening to DJ's from the 80s and 90s, this is wicked. This is how it should be done. I've watched so many other "winning" routines that just sound like somebody decided to lay on top of their turntables and have a seizure before I found this that, from beginning to end, has you nodding your head like "damn!"
I have been djing for a few years now ...watched countless dj scratch battles over the years And have to say this guy is by far the greatest I have ever seen!!!! The flow of the set is absolutely perfect the whole musical performance is subliminal . Playing those decks like someone that has practiced his whole life Like a musician that has mastered their instrument to perfection I bow and tip my hat my friend
I have DJ'd for 20 years before digital. I still use Digital and my 1200's. Regardless this set is flawless. I have sent this link to all the DJ's I now in H-Town. All over. They respect your style and innovation. As do I. Keep it moving. Best set Iv'e ever seen. Keep turntablisum alive!!!!!!
Stunning. Pure artistry.. once again (at last) someone has pushed the envelope and created something truly new, not just 'qbert style' scratch patterns over an eternal breakbeat, but a fluid, coherent flow of sound and ideas. Subscribed!
Subscribed, I've watched this video at least 10 times so far and are still amazed, everything is so well balanced and you're making it look so easy ^^ RESTECP going out from Denmark!
This is, without a doubt, probably the absolute sickest set I have ever seen AND heard. I have always said that a turntable is an instrument when its in the right hands...as they were in the hands of this cat. From one performer to another: Well played DJ, well played indeed.
Its so funny when you lost everything about this. But remembered there was a dude with the beach at his back amd totally flying like crazy. Glad i found u again! I searched for dj beach in the background i think that was the go to
Since when did Calvin Harris become a DJ? hahahah. He is a producer and a singer, not a fucking DJ. Hilton probably gets paid WAY more then any other DJ just because its good publicity to have her playing. In other words, she have more fans then most DJs, therefore she can charge more.
ok what i meant was without fact checking is that Brace and many others are seriously talented while fakers like Paris Hilton are getting $1m USD per gig, wheres the fucking justice man! who looks at a flyer & goes holy fuck Paris is playing tonight its gunna rock!! haha
Seriously amazing. The content was thoughtful, the technical ability par excellence, the rhythm was rolling like r's off spanish tongue, the flow like the mighty Murray and .......timing. Feel very proud, thats something to boast about
cONfUSiOUz Its a difference between a viral video and keeping it going for a long time. There is always far less people in turntablism contest then on a Miley Cyrus concert.
Yes of course. And thank god for that honestly. Damn, never thought I'd see the words viral and DJ Brace in the same sentence. I'm glad though. I definatively hope he wins this.
Well wasn't that the bees knees! Very entertaining. The days of two records and a mixer are still alive and well. OK extra help used but so effective. Respect to you.
2022 and it's still the best performance I've ever seen... I've come back here to watch this video many times and it always blow my mind
Not just me then!
Same :D
Same, wish there would be more of this out there
Just after watching the 2022 and was all definitely not as good as 2016 lol
So many times....! It's actually like a song.

I've been rocking his set for like 6 years now. It never gets old!!! Where is this cat? 🤷♂️ You can't be this good and quit the game...
Lol

Beri Pawaz I'm guessing your Millennial has a real ignorant statements
So true!
PREACH!!!!!

Yeah you right on that one 100PERCENT, fuck the repeated scratches that are outdated, you need harder beats and rap samples way more! I agree!!!
When you're a DJ yourself but you can't quite keep up with how Brace is doing this all in a musical package... THAT'S why I keep comin back to watch this!!! Genius.

They were jealous other DJs obviously 👌

This is how its done! He is using vinyl. Not just pushing buttons. This is how its done people! A+ in my book. Damn, that was nasty!
No.....not using vinyl.....control vinyl ....bit different......still genius...
Yeah he is still using tech. But it was still awesome

No way. There is nothing better.

damn this is one of the cleanest mixes i have heard in such a long time! guitars played on a fader with wah pedals so lit!

Back again.. blows me away every time
Every fucking time
this man is playing the guitar with the cross fader (!) wow
Like Eddie Van Halen...
Yeah i didnt understand what is this second weird fader ?
What would be the time mark, so I can jump straight to it before I watch the whole video?

Wow! this guy came along way since his 2004 DMC world finals well done.
Yip
This is how it's done! Never been this impressed and I'm from the 80's.
It's MUSIC not just scratching an LP! SICK!!! Unbelievable job.
Was that seagull part of the routine at the end..? lol
I would not be surprised considering his skills.
he is the pide piper of sea gulls.
ttf
ClectaSkiMusic yep he called to see how the night before and said I'm getting ready to do a mixtape video and I want you to make sure you drop by and I'll give you some bird seed for for payment
I've been watching this video over and over for years. It doesn't get old. Thank you DJ Brace. Best of luck to you.
UA-cam really needs more than just one thumb up for times like this!
DUDE! It’s Travis from Winnipeg!! Can never get enough of this homey!!! Sweet finish, miss you much brother!!!! Keep shredding that vinyl! 💽👋🏼🎧👋🏼💽
What did I just see... dude is on another level...
I always come back to this video. It's very enjoyable to watch!
Even Nature came together for that cut! Does NOT get better then that.. Super Clean Set!

I don't think most people understand how amazing what he's doing at 2:14 is... it's not like his drummer just started playing double time.
Good to see scratching that flows and has rhythm, a lot of guys scratching are missing this, it’s seamless. Just awesome.
holy shit that was dope!
the highest quality performance that I saw on UA-cam, you are great
that back drop doesn't hurt one bit ...lovely
Looks like the Gulf Coast of Florida
I was wondering...a bit dirty looking for the Gulf Coast...
I just keep coming back after 4 years of you posting this video. It is incredibly good and awesome!!! Thanks for sharing it. Inspiring!
✌️thank you José
Just found you and I really appreciate you make MUSIC!!! A real DJ with extremely high skills. Your mix is Blasting here at home!
This Is dj perfection
I have been djing for a few years now ...watched countless dj scratch battles over the years
And have to say this guy is by far the greatest I have ever seen!!!!
The flow of the set is absolutely perfect the whole musical performance is subliminal .
Playing those decks like someone that has practiced his whole life Like a musician that has mastered their instrument to perfection
I bow and tip my hat my friend
I will admit that I've never seen anything like that before.
True. Nuff . . !
Периодически захожу послушать. 2023 год ничего лучше ещё не слышал, ты крут чувак.

2019 and this is still up there with the top 10
Wow! So rhythmic and melodic. Not often heard during competitions. DJ Brace is the real deal.

Damn you make it look so easy, it hurts me.
Keep coming back to this. One of the very few routines that actually flows so well it could keep the dance floor jumpin
great ending of the video, greeting the bird :P
even nature favored that victory..
This is, without a doubt, probably the absolute sickest set I have ever seen AND heard.
I have always said that a turntable is an instrument when its in the right hands...as they were in the hands of this cat.
From one performer to another:
Well played DJ, well played indeed.

Haven't watched this in a while. Back again and still IMPRESSED. Pure skills

Amazing work. Nice one. F i luv Vestax. Miss my 2000's so much
the end of the video was perfect!
Still one of the best routines out there!!!!
Pozdrawiam jbzd.

I would never cross the line to say that you don't have skills you are phenomenally talented.
wicked cuts homey keep the routines coming, subbed!
Ende 2024 und ich komme immer wieder hier. Unglaublich !!! ,,DJing`` at its BEST!!!!
DAMN. GOLD MEDAL ROUTINE
Its so funny when you lost everything about this. But remembered there was a dude with the beach at his back amd totally flying like crazy. Glad i found u again!
I searched for dj beach in the background i think that was the go to
Well done Brace. and to think the highest paid dj in the world is Paris Hllton!! Bwhaaaa..
calvin harris is the highest paid DJ. Paris hilton is not even close
Since when did Calvin Harris become a DJ? hahahah. He is a producer and a singer, not a fucking DJ.
Hilton probably gets paid WAY more then any other DJ just because its good publicity to have her playing. In other words, she have more fans then most DJs, therefore she can charge more.
I agree, but he does play gigs in Vegas all year. I don't like any of it but you're saying Paris is more of a dj than Calvin Harris? That's funny
Eric Lindsay I dont think any of them is a worthy DJ.
ok what i meant was without fact checking is that Brace and many others are seriously talented while fakers like Paris Hilton are getting $1m USD per gig, wheres the fucking justice man! who looks at a flyer & goes holy fuck Paris is playing tonight its gunna rock!! haha
Seriously amazing. The content was thoughtful, the technical ability par excellence, the rhythm was rolling like r's off spanish tongue, the flow like the mighty Murray and .......timing. Feel very proud, thats something to boast about
Incredible bro u are so good !!
i Love ure music style continue u are massive
I am an old-skool LJ, this dude has a groove not seen on anyone else since the 90s... always come back to this to show the kids how it should be done.
OH FUCK SON so clean goddamn
first time ive seen dvs used in a way that makes me think "yeh, this is how dvs evolves turntablism" big respect brace, looking forward to more.
You look mildly annoyed
focused AF
because there is no second place when this guy starts scratching
Probably did more than 1 take, which can get annoying
that's for the haters.
He should be annoyed. There's too many sucker DJs out here!
I come back every day for this.
boom. so many clever bits in this
Def one of the best routines n turntablist I’ve EVERRRRR EVERRR seen n this is what I live n breathe much respect dj brace
How in god's name does this guy only have 1k subs? he should be over 1m
People dont care about turntablism unfortunately.
One day later .. 1,895 subs and 130k views. I dunno man...
Oh, and 1,3M views on Facebook.
cONfUSiOUz Its a difference between a viral video and keeping it going for a long time.
There is always far less people in turntablism contest then on a Miley Cyrus concert.
Yes of course. And thank god for that honestly.
Damn, never thought I'd see the words viral and DJ Brace in the same sentence.
I'm glad though. I definatively hope he wins this.
I tried to listen to other winners from previous years, but he shadows them from a light year away. Everything is just perfect.
2nd song: Ancient Astronauts - Still A Soldier (DJ Brace Remix)
Well wasn't that the bees knees! Very entertaining. The days of two records and a mixer are still alive and well. OK extra help used but so effective. Respect to you.
so dope ** , wtf is the song at 1:40 ? i need it so bad :o
