Carlo Atendido starts this week’s short DJ Skill Sessions demo with some word play and some big leaps from the present day back to 1990s/2000s. With tracks from Soul II Soul, Armand Van Helden and more, he asks, “where were you in ’92?”.

Along the way he shows off his usual mix of quick transition skills, focusing on creative word play and slicer mode, before closing the mix with a pretty drastic (and poignant) tempo change.

Hope you enjoy it!
