Before you step into the alternate universe of Corey Aguilar known onstage as DJ Sku it's important to know what to expect. First of all, vinyl isn't a solid. It will bend, blur and change shape before your eyes, but it won't break. Second, watch where you're standing. Sku has a tendency to turn everyone on his stage including Approach and Mac Lethal into gods on the mic. Finally, get some perspective. If you think all DJs in Kansas City have turntable skills on par with Sku, then you must not get out much.
-Pitch
Corey Aguilar can't keep his hands off records. Between the time he spends in record stores and the hours he spins vinyl on the ones and twos, DJ Sku's thumb has been on just about every good hip-hop, soul, funk or rock record in existence. Born in El Paso, Texas, and now living in Lawrence, Sku (say it skew) has been battling in scratch matches since 2001 and has won four KJHK 90.7 Waxclash DJ competitions, all on the strength of self-taught skills. No one can take him on locally, and we'd put him up against the best in the country. Sku brings his fists-of-fury, battle-style scratching into all of his work, whether he's playing a house party or rocking a club. He also plays the spotlight-stealing sideman to MCs Approach and Mac Lethal, elevating a live hip-hop show from open-mike banality to mind-blowing performance art. In fact, it's hard to get down when Sku's spinning because it's impossible to take your eyes off his surgically precise hands. He practices the art of the live remix better than anyone we've seen, taking any two records and slamming them together to make something new without dropping a single beat or bead of sweat." - "Best of Kansas City 2005" Winner, Best DJ (Pitch Weekly)
"DJ Sku's face is pure elation, but you might miss it if you're too busy watching his hands make chop suey of some poor, defenseless records" --Nadia Pflaum, Pitch Weekly
