The popular Canadian DJ takes to the Huffington Post to defend "real" DJing in light of Deadmau5's recent controversial tumblr diatribe about "button pushing" DJs.

A-Trak made this neat mix including a new tune from him and Dj Zinc and some of his personal favourites of today from electro / dance. The mix starts with a 4,5 minute tribute minimix to Dj Mehdi titled "Mehdi Forever". Definitely worth checking out, it feels like A-Trak is reborn.
The mash-up maestro is giving away his new mix CD, Dirty South Dance 2, for free over on his blog. Expect bags of rambunctious hip-hop and club-banger fusion.
The Canadian DJ/producer talks to Juno Plus about the difficulties in shedding his turntabilist past, saying that "I still have gigs where there’s five dudes in caps standing next to the decks, waiting for me to do some scratching."
