Miltown Beat Down Battle

After 2 months of battles, it’s time for the 2013 Miltown Beat Down Finals!

This year we return to the historic Turner Hall Ballroom, in beautiful downtown Milwaukee.  The night features a action packed schedule of performances and battles.  Legendary Producer / DJ Shadow will grace the stage as our 2013 guest of honor. His body of work continues to inspire music fans and DJs young and old.  There are few DJs who stand the test of time through their innovative ways of music productions.  However DJ Shadow continues to set standards falling into the exception rather than the rule in today’s electronic music frenzy.
“Few D.J.’s have such a tactile way with rhythm, and still fewer have the disposition to harness that rhythm to such moody atmospherics.“
- NY Times

“DJ Shadow is a sort of sonic Merlin: He’s known and revered for his buoyant beats, hypnotic loops and dark textural expanses, but he leads listeners to places where a nightlight, and even sunlight, can be glimpsed.”
- NPR

“His soulful, dense, addictive and slamming instrumental hip-hop brought together rap heads, metal kids, indie fans and dance music lovers… Put simply, a genius at work.”
- Mixmag
