DJ Craze, who has claimed the World DJ Champion trophy for six times and voted as the Best USA DJ by the Time Magazine, will perform in Hanoi on March 19.

The American DJ will stir up the Heineken Green Planet show on the 18^th floor of the building at No. 19 Tran Hung Dao, Hanoi.

DJ Craze, 34, born Aristh Delgado, is a Nicaraguan American DJ who plays hip hop, Miami bass, breaks, Dubstep, drum n bass, and practices turntablism. He is the only solo DJ in history to claim the World DMC Champion trophy three times consecutively.

DJ Craze was born in Managua, Nicaragua. At the age of 3, in 1980, he fled the country with his family during the war which lasted throughout the 1980s. Craze and his family moved to San Francisco, California, where they lived for a short while, before moving to Miami, Florida.

The style of his music carries many of his past musical influences. Initially influenced by the Miami Bass movement when he was younger, Craze has gone on to incorporate elements of hip-hop, drum n bass, and breaks in his turntable routines. Recently, Craze has shifted his emphasis to DJ’ing and producing drum n bass with his own record label “Cartel”.

Craze released his first album in 1999, Crazee Musick, and a second in 2002, Scratch Nerds. He also released an album called D-Day in 2002 with his turntable crew, The Allies.

Craze has released two of the most popular battle records ever, “Bully Breaks” and “Bully Breaks 2″.

Craze was Kanye West’s DJ for his Glow in the Dark tour in 2008 while A-Trak worked on his Fool’s Gold record label and tour.

He was featured on the Native-Instruments website demonstrating the Traktor X1 Controller.

Recently, Craze created his own record label with fellow DJ & friend Kill The Noise, Slow Roast Records. Slow Roast is distributed by Fool’s Gold, the record label shared by A-Trak and Nick Catchdubs. Other than Craze and Kill The Noise, Klever and Senor Stereo also released material under the Slow Roast label.
