[djdeus]

What's so controversial about this video? This is pure skills without a doubt.

[ArexRosauce]

this is sick

[corvanlennep]

Respect 4 your master work.

I'm inspired that you can beatscratch on a funky lp.

That is why i make a different funky drummer video.

its only a different variation.

And i want to thank you, that you give me alot inspiration.

peace

[yoshicola]

[Fablus22]

wow, really nice drumming

[korrect1]

[DJChrisLoot]

I don't get the controversy either... look at how DJing started (I don't mean that disrespectful at all) and then look at the level this is on... Vajra is absolute world class... anyone talking shit about him needs to seriously post some shit that's better than his or on the same level... good luck

[Viberationz]

@DJChrisLoot

couldnt agree more

[boltonlegends]

Jyea Nigga... Vajra u a top drummer man, was luvin the half time show for the Denver Nuggets, wicked shit. I know u know about Netik, he good man can't doubt it.... Holla at Q-Bert 4 me G an keep up the sick work.... DJ Rik C, Manchester

[cutdafukup]

[djvajra]

very strange that this video seems to be so controversial! keep hating suckaz!!! thanks to everyone else for the support!!!

[B6Quattro]

shits straight ill dude pay no mind

[greeneyemonsta]

@djvajra did the procussion use this routine at the end of their song "what's your names" off of their As Iron Sharpens Iron album...lol that snippet was fire man!! i thought it was a drummer and a dj actually playing during the song, but when i went back i could faintly hear the baby scratches in the audio!!! good stuff bro!!

[primetime1214]

@djvajra thas sik my man! Keep up the good work! James would be proud..

[oldschoolhunter]

garbage. you need to seriously pratice.that fast trash is worthless.

but for a hobby....go for it.

[omgitsdrok]

your fucken idiot dumb ass....you ignorant....your a sorry excuse for a human being....you stupid fuck....vajra is the shit....

[BboyShadowX1]

...my god...that was phenomenal...i bboy but i'm teachin myself how to dj via just watchin as many videos as i can and i honestly must say if i'm ever to reach 3/4 of your level i'll be satisifed

[djslipdisk]

[oldschoolhunter]

way too much blah. less destroying and pratice. sorry to be a critic , i'm old school baby scratcher

[SULLYEEE475]

Honestly he makes it sound glitchy and interesting it reminds me of the beats prefuse 73 used to make... i think its cool that he has his own style

[tempeturewood]

why are you on his nuts ?

[B6Quattro]

so basically you havent caught up to par with all the other scratch djs in the world?

[PprKut303]

vajra is fuckin dope! is that mixer a pmc 05?

[djvajra]

its an 07 actually :)

[blargh12]

is it your favorite mixer or top 3 or something like that?

[thudrumble]

DOPENESS!

[rogermoore27]

Vajra is very expressive. He can add so much detail into a bar of music.

[deejayideal]

Good shit Vajra.

[luv4drums139]

nice but i prefer the original cos i luv the beat....best ever drum beat cant beat that!

[DarkCeaser7]

What a waste of time. You should have just juggeled both records I mean come on Thats Funky Drummer the best Drum Break of all time.

[vegeta2332]

FUCKING TRUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ... the issue is there are PEOLE out there that DID NOT LIVE THE B-BOY life in NEWYORK and they creat CRAP....man..kudos bro on your point

[JHizouse]

Please, to both of you, don't pro-create.

[I333]

lol i guess u don't even kno what he's doing

[DarkCeaser7]

He's doing absolutely Nothing at all I use to do shit like that when I first got a set of Turntables when I was 12 back in 89. Step your game up son. Let me see you flip two of those instead of one record. Check out the Rob Swift videos if you want to see real skills.

[bizzyfingers]

im not one to talk shit but are you for real? do you not realize the skill this guy has? Vajra, i take my hat off and bow down to you sir as you are a fucking ass hole (only cos ill never get this good with any amount of practice) =0) Peace BIZZY

[DarkCeaser7]

No I don't realize or see the skill in what he is doing, Yawn.

[phukyouu]

DarkCeaser7, watch his 2004 US DMC set, n then tell me that vajra haz no skill.. even qbert said hiz one of the baddest in the world.. id love to c ur skill..

[phukyouu]

DarkCeaser7, I mean if u can do this wen u were 12.. then ud have no problem doing it now..

[DarkCeaser7]

There is no point in doing it now if I was 12 in 89 doing corny shit like this.

[deepaintpish]

Jealousy gets you nowhere mate :-)

[DarkCeaser7]

I'm not trying to get where ever your talking about. What he did is so Elementary is all I was saying Mate.

[deepaintpish]

Its not "Elementary" mate.

[DarkCeaser7]

Not for you it seems to be rather difficult to you.

[deepaintpish]

What makes you think that?

[harvestein]

have to say darkceaser, ive never read so much crap on here in a while. You clearly do not have a clue what your talking about. Post a vid of you scratching a better beat and ill retract my statement!

[djvajra]

the whole point of this routine was to only use one record. if you want to see me juggle, watch some of my other videos.

[djlonely77]

they were doin that in 89. bullshit. ive seen all the rob swift xmen routines and they dont even come close to vajra's routine. post up your video of you doing that routine and ill beleive you.

[freefallstylin]

/watch?v=wYbRnVCdoOw

[QLBS]

is this on fast forward? ...hope not... cause i was starting to think it was cool..

[Jelemare]

Haha! No it's not. It's just cool...:-p

[sewshio]

[MWFinest]

[futurehead1503]

[muletooth]

[chuckkk2003]

which song is this?

[DrewStoneRoses]

james brown - funky drummer

[bizzyfingers]

any tips on perfecting the drums vajra?

[Mauritz93]

Really Nice

[tomer1224]

Thats awsome man, you should submite that to a record studio!

[Dj0161]

hell yerr u got skills m8

[MEGAMIGA]

"Drumming skills"??? You are not playing the drums here but merely using one of the greatest drum patterns ever...

There is some skill involved from you to get cues on your LP but nothing beats a REAL drummer, getting lowdown and funky on REAL drums.

[castorizer]

your comment sounds like you doubt that this is hard to do... you´re wrong

[MEGAMIGA]

I never said it wasn't hard to do (everything is relative though)).

My point is, he is not playing the DRUMS but playing with a drumsample, which is totally different!

I am just sick of people going ballistic on djs' skills. They work, obviously, but nothing beats a REAL musician, playing a REAL instrument. Cheers.

[DjENN0]

whats to say a DJ isnt a musician?he works the same as any other musician on bars,bridges ect...he has practiced for years!and he uses turntables as an instrument...please dont say you play an instrument because who is to say YOU can classify yourself to judge what an instrument is or not?people use spoons as instruments and you say a turntable isnt a real one!!so dont come here saying that crap when you obviously know nothing about what he is doing!

[MEGAMIGA]

My point was, again, someone said djVajra had DRUMMING skills. He is not playing the DRUMS but using a TURNTABLE, which are two different things! You wouldn't say of a guitar player that they are a great trombone player, would you?

[DjENN0]

yes but in turntablism what dj vajra is doing is known as drumming....so he is very good at it so he is called a good drummer,the correct word is turntablist drummer but drummer is shorter so dont get ur panties in a twist because he is a good drummer admit it because what he does on the turntable is impossible on drums

[MEGAMIGA]

Thanks for the explanation, I better understand the comment now.

And, obviously, scratching is impossible on drums...

Funny but I am listening to Billy Cobham at this very moment hehe.

[cavalier777]

it's possible: check out jojo mayer and nerve

[MEGAMIGA]

True! I forgot about him.

I reckon he is a mutant, his chops are quite impressive, aren't they?

[Ayanami0001]

don't be jealous

[MEGAMIGA]

Jealous?

Erm, no. Not really.

[bizzyfingers]

vajra i could kick your ass at scratchin man, i do it every night but wake up every moning for breakfast hahahaha could you not do a little breakdown of your skills, like a tutorial vid or something to show mear mortals like me how to cut so clean? if i die with a quater of your skills bro id be a happy dead guy

[harvestein]

I was beginning to think that people who use there left hand on the vinyl couldnt drum that good. I have hope now!! :)

[hsdkahkjcbaksc]

HOLY SHIT !!!

[martt350]

word. that shit is ridiculous

[LordDrumeth]

that was clean,had a jungle feel to it

[DjNinjade]

Yo Vajra, i was wondering if you have done any group DJ performances, or have thought about being part of a group format like ISP or the Allies or something, i think your drumming skills would make any turntable band awsomely good.

[djvajra]

yeah, i do want to do that! it's just a matter of getting the right people together.

[bugstrut]

If you do ever put a team together, don't just go and find the best technical scratchers. You also need people who are good at coming up with ideas. Some of the best scratchers I've ever seen/heard are useless when it comes to putting routines together, and coming up with new ideas. They spend too much time trying to outdo Q-bert on the "Aaaahs".

[AskanBeatnik]

sooo true! :)

[toddlans]

yeah dude you're really solid on drumming.  shit is sick.

[deceptikronic]

that was cool the way you cut up the best beat of all time!!

[blackonyx2727]

clean cut. slammin dude

[kboro]

NICE DRUMMIN !

[GottaHaveSouL123]

Amazin, some of the best beat-jugglin I've seen

[Ryn2k7]

thats sounds so cool not just technical!

[KidHum]

luh diz shit

[djindoe]

[ketchupmustard]

[midwestjuggalo]

[LONGBROCCOLI]

[d7incognito]

this routine was on the procussions as iron sharpens iron right? hella sick!for sure

[Fluins]

nice and clean!

[incredibert]

fuckin' great !! yyeeaaahh

[bigpimp347]

the beat keeps on rolling like a record should sound, if i was blind i would'nt know the difference from this to a real record..

[dgsoul]

and who said turntables aren't musical instuments?

[maddtapes]

hey, that's on the "as iron sharpens iron" album... fresh!!

[SlyT]

Dj Mutha FUCKEN VAJRA!!!!
