TORAIZ SP-16 & AS-1 Performance with Jon1st & Shield

Jon1st and Shield give a masterclass in live music production as they perform their new track, “Holla”. The collaborators use 2 TORAIZ SP-16s to build, arrange and layer the tune with 1 shots and percussive elements. With the AS-1, Shield adds a weighty bassline played through a MIDI keyboard as Jon1st provides additional melodic texture with a dreamy, arpeggiated synth. On turntablist duties, Jon1st also skillfully cuts and blends vocal samples using a DJM-S9, 2-channel battle mixer for Serato DJ Pro and PLX-1000, the professional turntable.
