The Blah Blah Blah boys had Fake Blood Digital only a few weeks and now comes the news that A-Trak is coming just before Easter. He’ll be here on Thursday 9th April. What’s even better is the next day is a bank holiday so people don’t have to work the next day.

So who is he anyway? There seems to be three sections to who A-Trak is. First he was DMC Champion when he was 15 and basically won everything and retired from the DJ battle scene a few years later. Then he landed the job as Kanye West’s DJ which saw his profile rise even more and now in the last few years he’s moved away from the  scene but still drops some hip-hop and showcases his scratching skills during his sets. He even has his own label, Fool’s Gold!

He’s got a Fabric CD dropping a few days before the gig at Digital and a another mix album on Thrive Records in America that’s just come out so he’s been busy. That’s before mentioning that he just did 9 gigs in 3 days in Miami at WMC.

He’s only doing a handful of UK dates so make sure you catch him and £9 is a bargain to see this guy!!

Check out the Blah Blah Blah blog for more info on the show and to keep up with A-Trak check out his website/blog, Myspace and Twitter.
