@traceless1 yep, i remember seeing him doing this at the time and being totally blown away. pure creativity. i think it flew over the heads of most people.
@rogergu80 i got this on VHS tooooo. P trixx and craze's set were insane!!!!. Not to mention tony vegas!!! Every set on this year was solid, but craze's was insane!!!! The newer DMC's some of the sets get pretty boring!!!
I feel bad for Dexta on this performance. I saw him qualify in Melbourne to compete and the set was flawless! One of the most creative sets ever. I think he just got a little rattled.
Ha, I didn't even see your post. But yes it was at the Metro. He he really did nail it that night. Especially up against guys like Dj Wayne. I hope he continues to make music with the Avalances.
Saw him do this routine at some club (the lounge?) leading up to the finals and he fucking nailed it. Still get massive goosebumps from the 'I hope it's me' bit as I was on some great ecstasy. Met him a few months later and he was/is an amazingly humble guy.
Ok, its a great routine but the Prince switchover was a lil too advanced for normal listeners, that shyt is madd hard to do and make it come out normal speed, note that after the beatjuggle he fused another record with that, i personally think he shoulda left out that routine around 3:15 and automatically went on to what he eventually did around 3:55, the beggining is also hellah fresh,
Those days the mixers had rarely any hamster switches. That technics mixer didn't have it and you had to use it on those battles. He scratches hamster but juggles with normal crossfading. That's why it is turned in the beginning.
Naw, that was Craze's year. You have to watch it again, it's flawless. From the intro calling out everyone that year who took Craze's juggle patterns from 98 in their routines to the end, Craze had multiple genres, actually mixed the tracks, and had the perfect harmony of technical ability, flashiness, and sound.
I believe Dexta would've placed if it weren't for all the skips during the Prince juggle. He made up for it in 2000 though but I've always liked the Frontier Psychiatrist routine the best.
You Can Find the First Song In Single " The Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatrist " But i'm Still Search for The END " Who IS Going o Be, I Hope, I Hope It's ME " !! ThanKs For THE ONE Here!! Especially ;)

Craze's routine was rare and one of a kind for 1999.
musicality, technicality, and fresh.
