 Producer/DJ A-Trak announced this week a 20+ date tour, where he will be accompanied by M.I.A. protege and BallerStatus Scouting Report artist (see report) Rye Rye and Fool's Gold's own disco don Treasure Fingers.
The tour, dubbed the 10,000LB Hamburger Tour, kicks off on June 17 in New York, then hitting Orlando, Atlanta, Phoenix and Houston, among other cities. It will wrap on August 8th in Los Angeles.
A-Trak plans to take his sets to a new level, combining his prowess of mixing many genres of energetic dance music with his natural mastery of turntablism and a spanking new stage design, sure to raise the bar for DJ tours in all aspects.
"If there's an art to live mixing and mashing for a dance floor, A-Trak is something of a Rembrandt," the L.A. Times writes about the DJ.
"[A-Trak]'s established himself as a favorite among the shutter-shades generation, and for good reason. He's great at putting familiar styles into interesting contexts, blurring lines between eras, and just plain knowing what tracks sound good next to each other." PITCHFORK adds.
Clearly this hamburger comes with a shake and a side of jumping beans. Start saving your appetite.
