D.J TRON not dead.... I think he DID a BADASS track that was so dope it suck him in the dopness of it....... So everytime you here terror/speed/noise/hard core its him sayin im still ALIVE.... May U LIVE 4 EVER you IN MUSIK...
@clebervic some say it was a drug over dose other wont admit it but he was found not conscious in his studio was what i was told by one of his old friends im not sure but thats what i last heard
I used to EMAIL Jeff all the time. I've been in the process of sending him a demo but, he was always in constant flux. We talked a few times at his shows. I always wanted to have a VS. but, sadly it will never happen now.
Dose anyone have any actual footage of Tron spinning at parties? I know those are probably rare as fuck though.
I first saw Tron at TOA in 2001 and it was DJ Tron and there was everyone else. People flipped out!!! I had heard of him but wasn't as big as a fan of him then as I was now. Wish I woulda payed more attention to his set.
Some dudes smoked him out after his set and it sure wasn't bud...
@jadizm The first time I seen him was at psychedelic circus when we were doing props. I wish I had footage. It was I believe 94. Back when events were about 500 people in a warehouse, downtown LA.
Holy shit! Was re-ripping my hardcore CD's to the latest LAME 3.98 version (long overdue). I am heartbroken at the news. Saw this guy at Urban Phenomenon a decade ago. His style is unique, I collected as many of his works as I could get my hands on (mainly thanks to Pureacid!). Hardcore isn't the same without him =( Is Delta 9, Mark N, Masochist, Eric L, Ron D Core et al around?
Visit Ron D Core all the time, Eric L is still around but came back from a break I think, Mark N of course still travels showing off his turntablist skills, dunno about Masochist
@InterestingBoredom ya i was chilling with delta 9 after a hardcore party a year, or so ago. i was breaking rocks for the hardcore room he was gonna spin in the year before for neo sapiens. i promoted Sacrifice the party he was supposed to spin at the day he died. (tron that is) plurr, hip-e
Tron pioneered and "made" hardcore techno.. he was and is my musical idle.. i'm very saddenned by this.. RIP..TRON.. "MURDER THE WORLD"! I just can't believe he just died so young.. this fucking sucks!!
My girlfriend mentioned the death of a respecful artist, and as i was listening to this song i read the comments and realized it was in fact Jeff. Rest in Peace, May your next life be great, you will be missed by many
just gotta throw up my respect for tron... got me into hardcore early on b4 i even knew what that shit was... really dig the editing on this vid, did he have any other official music videos??
First time I met the dude was @ Together as one 2000 inside of the L.A. Sports Arena. His set was after Predator I think and he spun on Pioneer CDj's if I recall correctly, he was rolling that coffin around. I took pics that night & I can't find the ones of him but I have from the Predator & Omar. His set caused a massive moshpit.
- First discovered Jeff on Rave Radio "The Deep Underground Rythm" by Dj Kookane circa 95'. That tape has been worn like a mathafuka! Thanks to Pure Acid for those killer tapes! It was a plessure to meet a Hall of Famer. Thank u so much for hooking up some of those mixes that I didn't have. Your mixes & tracks will live on in my memories for ever! Until then, c u in Hardcore Heaven - Gabbakore Dj
Jeff Besler is not the "DJ Tron" that many of you know him as. He started out as a kid with a dream of changing the music industry. Jeff was very creative and artistic and we will miss the Jeff that we all once knew, not the person he became. Please keep in mind that he does have parents, family and friends that are in mourning and be respectful. We love you Jeff, see you in Heaven.
Jeff Bessler was one of my very closest friends growing up in Chicago Heights, IL and I just found out. Even though we lost touch when his family moved away I am deeply saddened by his loss. So unless you have direct knowledge of how he passed please don't post any B.S.
To squash any rumors, As of right now, there is no cause determined by the coroner. No drugs were found near him, on him, or in his possession by the police when he passed away. He had been working hard on his set with a good friend for the Sacrifice party in LA at the time.
Tron is still around popping up here and their but mainly he's been spending less time doing music and more time working a real job and with his wife...With what hustler5743 wrote,BULLSHIT bro,I know the dude,real name Jeff Besler idiot and that whole thing you saw him smoke crack bullshit is a lie,dude smokes weed but who doesnt,common man admit you were probly so e-tarded you dont know what the hell he was smokeing if anything at all...Looser..
Tron is the best at this shit, and I used to have an hour+ long video of a live show of his with the video he played in the background and it was fucking insane!
(DJ FUCKING TRON)this makes me feel better.. i think it was in 1998 that i saw this flyer that was of a severed hand holding a glow stick in a pool of blood and you know it said DJ TRON on that shit...
i have a 45 minute mix cd with delta 9 and someone else i downloaded like 4 years ago and for the life of me i cannot find any other info on it...a freind of mine turned me on to tron and ant zen years ago...i owe him big for that
Tron always has been mad ill fresh. He's right up there with Delta9 in bringing the chaos. I've been listening to him since '96. Thanks for the upload.
This should be on a hellraiser movie.
