DJ Mel
DJ Mel has a crate-digger's ear for killer grooves, but never forgets that people are more likely to dance when they know what they're dancing to. This crowd-rocking balance of obscure beats and populist hooks has helped Mel rise from a humble residency at an Austin dive bar to the ranks of the city's most sought-after turntablists. Sure, there's plenty of other DJs rubbing massive Big Boi singles up against remixes of The Xx and deep cuts from The Doobie Brothers, but few do it with such even-handed smoothness and subtle scratching. With DJ Mel, it's all about the blend.
