The King of the Decks is back, direct from the USA. If you haven't witnessed DJ Revolutions turntablist wizardry before, you are not going to wanna miss out this time round!

As one of the most well known and respected DJs across the globe, DJ Revolution held down the two Technics on the longest running commercial hip hop show in history for 12 years. The Wake Up Show, with hosts Sway (MTV) and King Tech is an internationally syndicated hip hop mix show that has helped launch the careers of some of the biggest and brightest including Eminem, Xzbit, Common, and countless others. The show even experienced a brief run as a show on MTV, adding visual images and faces to the world famous radio trio. However, exposing quality hip hop to millions of people while displaying his unquestionable skill is just part of DJ Revs resume.

Aside from his legacy as DJ & producer, he has lent his now infamous scratch techniques and production skills to many artists, established and up and coming alike. Dilated Peoples, Canibus, Chino XL, Tha Alkaholiks, Mystic, Bootcamp Click and many more have all witnessed the turntable wizardry or pounding beats that Revolution brings to the table. He has released too many mixtapes to name. Most recently, the first installment in a series of 20 volumes, class of 85 and Class of '86 have received incredible feedback. He has also taken his skills to the far corners of the world and ripped clubs all over Europe, Asia and Australia/New Zealand. This of course includes traveling the US and Canada to spin with the likes of the legendary Jazzy Jeff, DJ Premier and Maseo from De La Soul and headline clubs himself.

Dj Rev has also released 3 solo full length Lps that garnered him critical acclaim (in 12s we trust and R2K) and a collaboration with his partners Sway & King Tech on Interscope in 99. His latest album, "King of the Decks" was released on Duck Down records to rave reviews and attained classic status among his fans and peers. As well as releasing his own music, he is very heavily involved in the music technology scene. Some of the biggest companies in the industry look to use his influence in the hip hop and DJ community to help introduce major products into the market.

But in the end, no matter how involved in the business of being Hip Hop DJ Revolution becomes, he will always be most comfortable standing behind two 1200s, exposing great music to whoever would hear it while displaying his world renowned technical abilities to manipulate sound.
