Yo, Listen Juggle Routine @RodChrolon


It's been a long time since I posted anything. So earlier today I picked the drums and vocals and created the pattern... This was my first take so it's a rough cut of what the full routine will sound like.

On Saturday, September 10th, 2011 DJ Rod Chrolon stopped by www.HuskeyRadio.com to take part in the Huskey Radio Scratch BBQ.  Sacremento Special Interview Guests The SleepRockers where in the building showing off their superb wax control and fader skills on the scratches.

Also holding down Scratch duties was the Turntable Mafia with the founder showing off his 2 fader simultaneous scratch that had on lookers baffled and DJ Wanted speculating.  Stating, "It's a Rane." referring to the onboard input fader adjustment that enabled the Project Blowed Veteran to execute the scratch.

When we later asked the Turntable Mafia founder about the scratch, he shared with us that, "That Scratch took me 5 years to Master."  Rane or Vestax or Innofader in a Pioneer the scratch is legit and sounds unbelievable when properly executed.

A Wedding From A DJ's Point if View

On June 11, 2011 Rod Chrolon provided outstanding DJ/MC Services as a one man show (per client request), for the C. & S. Lopez Wedding. 

Rod arrived ahead of schedule as usual, and was shocked to see the hall had not been completed.   Amongst other key points such as chair covers, the overhanging centerpiece over the center of the dancefloor was not completed until 20 after guests where supposed to enter the hall.  But with a Host Bar and the best little bruschetta bites the glitch went unnoticed.
For the first time Rod could remember his set up and sound check was complete before the hall was finished. (Pause for Host Bar)

As you can see in the photos from the second the guests entered the room DJ R.C. captivated the audience with his diverse and familiar musical proramming experience.

As soon as we celebrated the formalities of the reception.  DJ R.C. had the dancefloor packed all night long.  The host bar must have put energy in the drinks cause Rod had this crowd on their feet for two and a half hours straight. 

Rod wound the crowd down just before Midnight and ended the night with the Bride & Grooms request Copa Cabana. 

The eighty dollar tip from the groom was proof that Rod not only pleased the crowd, he played new music and introduced them to his skills on the turntables and as an MC.
