Every1 wants a piece of her. Boys, girls, agents, managers, some guy who just opened a club, some people with blogs that want to interview her. There is simply not enough Lana to go around... Which is why we are SO happy 4 her because she was spotted canoodling with relevant AltJew DJ A-TRAK. It [...]

Part of what made the switch to digital quicker and easier was I did a couple of big file trades with a couple of DJs. You would meet up with another DJ and you had a hard drive with a certain amount of gigs of mp3, and just swap. Then suddenly you're like, 'Whoa, this guy just gave me a folder of like 200 a capellas.' That's a great arsenal. And quickly one thing that became very apparent to me was that right as I started doing a couple of these trades that in a matter of moments would quadruple [...]

By Conan the DestroyhhherCanada is one of Nerdy Frames favorite cities. In fact we get all the love mostly from the T-Dot (aka Toronto) which is our sisterly email city that we intercept most of our musical emails from. Now in this regard we're talking about A-trak, an up and coming legend that obliviously needs no introduction.Okay he's not from the T-dot, but granted that he is Canadian and

Universal Motown has confirmed Kid Cudi's official second single as "Make Her Say" (formerly known as "Poke Her Face") featuring Kanye West and Common. The Lady GaGa sampled-song will be released to iTunes on June 9, while Cudi's debut album Man on the Moon: The End of Day drops August 25. Don't do it! Fail...Major Fail! What is wrong with these labels?? He needs a chick song! Damn! I really hope this is not true. Why would they put a remake out as a single? Buzz creator ok, but this didn't even have a substantial enough buzz [...]

Its coming soon...Just anounced by A-trak .. 2 years + since the Amaaazing Dirty South Dance . Infinity +1 Tour

Great songs aren't always the product of a laborious production process. DJ A-Trak confirmed via Twitter that Pharrell made this beat in five minutes and Lil' Wayne 's verses are in line with his stream of consciousness tirades that are known to take him no more than a few tries. This collaboration between two of modern music's most known and respected artists, however brief in its conception, has yielded very interesting results. Yes is an accumulation of everything that has been right and wrong [...]

Photo: The Cobra Snake In anticipation for Field Day, I went on the hunt for an A-Trak set or two, as he is without a doubt my favorite DJ/Producer fr 2008. I eventually found some that satisfied my urge, the first one was a 25 minute set he did at Glastonbury this year, the other was performed on the Essential Mix: 2020 Bournemouth on the 15th of November, presented by Annie Mac, the other half of the mix is by Erol Alkan. It has a nice mix of party tunes, electro and "crunk" music, out [...]

Without a doubt, the best two international DJs I have seen this year are DJ Craze & A-Trak , both had their own style, performance technique and presence, the thing that impressed me most about their performance was their scratching ability. They also have both one the DMC world championships for scratching, A-Trak won it when he was 15 which is amazing in itself and DJ Craze is the only solo DJ to win the World DMC Champion trophy 3 times in a row, as well as teaming up and winning it. A-Trak has recently released his [...]
