Travis Barker, reality star and popular drummer from the popular band Blink 182, was recently in a plane crash which killed several of his friends. DJ AM survived, but then overdosed on drugs. DJ AM and Travis Barker were in a band together where DJ AM spun mainstream hits on his turn tables, and Travis Barker emotionally drummed over the music.
Even though DJ AM died, Travis Barker is still interested in 'making mad bank' from the DJ economy. His projects most likely get 'mad booking fees' which enable his rocker lifestyle. In order to move forward, he hired the popular DJ A-Trak to 'make sweet jams' with him.
Do they seem like a chill duo?
The duo will perform versions of each other’s remixes (they’ve reworked tracks for everyone from Eminem and Soulja Boy Tell’em to MSTRKRFT and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs), plus new material they’ve been working on in Barker’s Los Angeles studio. Or, at least, that’s the plan right now.
In 2004, before Kanye was a human meme ball, A-Trak was hired as his tour DJ. A-Trak seems to have had 'mainstream exposure' in the past. Do yall think Blink 182 will sign to Fool's Gold Records, A-Trak's Record Label?
Do yall support Travis Barker for 'moving on'?
Do yall support the demographic of mainstreamers and bros who 'eat up' Travis Barker drumming over some generic DJ mix?
Is Travis Barker an overrated drummer/artist with an excellent monetization scheme?
Is A-Trak alt?
Will their new album 'top' Pitchfork's charts in 2k11?
