DMC World 2000 DJ Mr Thing (UK)

[MurderToCassette]

Dude milked the Tribe juggle a little too much, but this is still a great set.

[djfuvideo2]

Kicks Snare Kicks and High Hat



[BoardnotBored]

wooooooooooooooooooooo!



[robfayder]

this video was dope!!

[DJPHILLY187]

He is saying all other DJs back then are just doing some show off body tricks thats why he starts with WOAH and says NO to each scratch watch it again he says no no to peoples styles NO and then he goes on to show that he is skilled in the art of Boom bap with just kick snares and high hats and then shows he can transform like an auto bot then finishes it with a bang ;) Mr Thing still does the heavy sets today - support and see him play you will enjoy!

[djmyme1]

@DJPHILLY187 Yes sir.. I just red this comment and it summed up exactly what MR THING was doing back in 2000. At a time where every battle routine seemed to use "SUPER DUCK BREAKS" it was great to see Mr Thing come through with such an original and funky set.. Mr Thing is the man..

[ZuluGhost]

i kinda don't like tthis routine :/ don't see the conection or even see him try to conect the sounds! but is only my opinion....

[DjCantFuckinMIx]

@ZuluGhost I'm kinda with you on that one as I like the sets that sound like a mega mix but this one set I wouldnt of really made that comment on......lol...

but in saying that if you compare it to DJ Noizes winning set or one of Crazes sets yes it doesnt flow in the same way but I would just call it differnt styles at the end of the day...

[abernam]

"We can get down" by A Tribe Called Quest is at 2:25 & 3:53

[majkidi]

what's the name of the song at 3.53? pls someone..

[pandaaa22]

whats the track name at 2:25 ?

[Lorenshyne]

this cant be in 2000 he drops Classic by Premo which was dropped in like 2007

[DJTouche]

@Lorenshyne ? He doesn't play that track. The Rakim tune at the beginning is different! This is 2000 for sure.

[FileSpnR]

exactly how it's supposed to be

[MrDizzydustin]

Fucking turntabliste...!

[teruponify]

ヤベー

[tableturns77]

[SophieLouise1994]

[MarkieV101]

about the day my DJ turned into AN AUTOBOT

he got struck by lightning, in an electrical storm

he got on the wheels of steel and began to

[patdarock2345]

big man work this ya know

[profaildj]

this shit was so ahead

[chelsealovesbrad]

wow what a skill

[halfkut2193]

ive based my scratch style on mr thing, love his steez. well dope

[def037]

that shit was wack, i stopped it at 130, if u dont have my attention by then, i aint watching it, one of the worst ive ever seen, dont reply saying i should of kept watching cuz it gets better, i dont care, that was the wackest minute and 30 secs ive ever seen

[onearmedbox3r]

Clueless fuckwit.

[halfkut2193]

penis

[FONKIEPHRESH]

the first intrumental was made by: black rob and called: whoa

what's the name of the intrumental, he uses for his amazing transform???

peaze out to my turntableists

[joseugs]

yyeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh ... one of the sickest

[kurth83]

It's a 2-click-orbit baby combo and after that a chirp-flare. it is his "thing". he does a very similar pattern on the intro of the creators album. check that out too!

the king.

[djrhon]

WHO IS THE FIRST SONG?????

[audirs84]

Rakim - when i B on tha Mic

[illfaderbehaviour]

that final scratch is one of the fastest and cleanest ive heard, anyone hazard a guess at what it is?

[cesiumrane]

3 click flare orbit :-/

[illfaderbehaviour]

1 click forward 2 click back? looks like he's twiddling it tho

[cesiumrane]

3 clicks forward to open fader to reverse 3 clicks back to open fader; repeat

[illfaderbehaviour]

but the amount of time in the forward motion is half that of the backward motion, there simply isnt time to fit 3 clicks in the forward motion! can u do this?

[zoneganjah]

NO YA NO!

[zoneganjah]

what is the song of 1:42 minits????? URGENTEEEEEEEE!

[Alkemy007]

Its "We Can Get Down" by A Tribe Called Quest

[dakingofdano]

klever is way better

[kqhst]

that set is raw and creative ...most kids dont understand that....

[msmontana8]

does anyone know what he uses to mark his vinyl

[Dom2497]

Stickly lables!

[djmidgray]

usually stickers of any kind.

Tip = If you use the tape that is used to repair cassette tapes with an s-shaped tone arm by placing the tape next to the beat on the record and the stylus on the tape by moving the record forward the centrifugal force with pull the record into the groove where you placed the tape which is pretty much what these guys do.

[djbjam]

uhm.Right.He's weak.AHAHAHAHAHAH.That was hilarious

[mataafa1]

this set was rude, his juggles are WEAK as a mutha fuker for DMC standard.. his cuts are good but everything else weak.. pretty standard.

[m0bber]

not so wrong ... always the same and standard^^ ... other djs do more vinyl changes and better than this^^

[EvilGeni0us]

Its acutally not its BLACK ROB-WOAH

Taskforce did do a cover but judging at the time of this set he mixed the Black Rob version,but it is Black Rob's beat anyway so credit goes to him,both good versions but Robs is the better in my eyes!!

[djbjam]

He loves the Tribe,he had a routine with the Jazz song

[showbizben]

Err just watched Craze's again and disagreed with myself think I was drunk when I last commented sorry.

[showbizben]

Craze's was the most fluent set but to be honest this was more difficult and Dexter's was more inventive so maybe he was a little lucky. I would have give it to Craze though so din't slag me off too much.

[Social8th]

if I entered the DMC my chances are that I would meet alot of people like me!

[nate2611]

what tha

[djPo3ta]

1:42 that's "A Tribe Called Quest-We Can Get Down"

[djbjam]

dope dope dope dj

[juampadj]

The best set from Mr Thing...i know him at DMC 2001, London. Nice guy!

Anyone for the tracks on this set? Specially the Tribe Called Quest one.

Thanks!

[olliecox]

One of the best DMC sets ever!! Rakim, black rob, Tribe called quest, even a bit of jazzy jeff all strung together with mad skills! Classic . Shame DMC sets sound like shit these days : (

[HaganJuego]

the last champion

mister

thiiiiiing!!!!!!

[illlx]

black rob-whoa

[rezpatriot]

CUZ IZ real dope!

[demetrex777]

please what is the song from 00:24 ???

[julius8912]

i thing is called keep it gansta,of snoop dogg and ice cube

[southpawstyle]

its called "wild blow" by task force, uk hip hop....

[milesmedina]

the hell? lol its called whoa by black rob..

[Alkemy007]

actually..its wah blow by task force

[southpawstyle]

damn right, these guys must be yanks. not all hip hop is american!!!

[willyroberts]

nah its like woah by black rob, task force covered it n it was called "wah blow" not wild blow, wah bloh as in wagwarn as in was cracking as in whats happennin as in how do you do?

[southpawstyle]

thatnks for the lecture!

[willyroberts]

sorry got a bit carried away, haha

[systemcrew]

tio mis respetos de venezuela yeah paz mad p

[bodstrom]

Yeah, that soul is what a lot of dj:s miss today to be honest. Original records and a crazy mind is what takes to be a legendary dmc champion.

[australansk8]

whats the song from 04:04 ??? please... :)

[modestmark]

In my opinion, one of the best battle routines in dmc history. Mr. Thing just killed it and plus he had that "soul" that a lot of dmc battles are missing lately. His tribe juggle is completely insane.

[Zejex15]

noize is a tiny little, little, bit better :D

[modestmark]

noize is sick too and there's no doubt that he's a living legend with his classic disses, but technically and overall--at least in this set--mr. thing takes it over noize. Plus noize messed up in his planet rock routine. If he got that down, there's no doubt that he would have placed higher 'cuz I seen him when he layed that down--that was the ish.

[Zejex15]

true shit, but, if you won DMc world championship, you dont care if you win next time.

[modestmark]

except if you're craze, who won it like what? three times. That dude is a beast.

[Zejex15]

yeah

[cosmosios]

great flow ...love it too, the scratchings ...just awesome dude!!

[djhdk]

loved it!!!!!!

[TerrorVisual]

Thats "Wha Blo" by Taskforce, supertyyli.

[chuminatorman]

oh my god

[bennehbennehbenneh]

And in the UK final he manages to make the Q-tip lyric 'It's like that' sound like 'Goes Like' with his silky backscrape, but no such luck here :(.

[bennehbennehbenneh]

Shame really. I'm a huge Thing fan and he really let him self down in the finals. His UK final routing was spotless, really something. Harks back to a time when the music meant more than the action y0.

[supertyyli]

What's that instrumental from 00.24 forward?

[l0nni]

Black Rob - Whoa

[l0nni]

The We can get down juggle is ILL as fuck. And he can scratch real good too. An underestimated Scratchpervert IMHO

[Hibiki23Fluid]

Brilliant man . . Transform
