DJ TRUMASTR’S BOX SET: 10 PIVOTAL LIFE MOMENTS ALONGSIDE 50 YEARS OF HIP HOP
What happens when your birth year coincides with the birth of hip hop? The soundtrack of your life pairs with ground-breaking albums that defined each decade from early breakbeats to socially-conscious rhymes in the 80s, gangsta rap in the 90s, and their impact on culture, fashion and social commentary.
Come hear DJ, producer, educator, budding triathlete, set designer, traveler, whale and rollercoaster enthusiast + all-around record-head, run it back for a retrospective on 50 years of hip hop as he shares 10 pivotal moments in music that have shaped his journey. Each experience has shifted and guided his path, weaving together the beats, lessons, and discoveries that define his life. This interactive audio-visual presentation invites you to see beyond the turntables, to witness the evolution not only of a DJ, but a storyteller, a seeker, and a true student of the culture. Listen up. School is in.
