DJ Rafik (Germany), 6x WORLD CHAMPION (ITF & DMC), comes to Q Bar Bangkok
Rafik savoured a high class musical education as a young child due to the influence of his parents, who are both classical musicians. At the tender age of 3 he played cello and piano, from his 6th year of age he learned how to work a drum-kit. Rafik’s fascination for modern and electronic music - as well as the forbidden fruit of his parent’s hi-fi turntable - set the course for his DJ career.
A
few years later, after making an impressive debut to the scenery of
German DJ-Battles, Rafik joined forces with Kid Fresh, Rasgunyado and
J-Bounce – a team that was truly going to write history. At the
ITF-World Championships the crew known as “Lordz Of Fitness” won
the first title for Germany since David Fascher (1991). Rafik started
to win world titles left, right and center. Besides successfully
defending the ITF team title with the “Lordz Of Fitness”, he won
himself three more world titles in solo categories. In 2007 Rafik
raised a monument for himself. Young chap from Duesseldorf stood up
to 27 national champions from all over the world and finally took DMC
World Championship in London’s O2 Arena.
With this title of
titles, Rafik emerged into the league of international DJ
heavyweights like Q-Bert, Cash Money, Craze or A-Trak. Not to mention
that packing 6 world titles means a new record to the history of
world DJ-championships. Beside his insane skills as a battle DJ Rafik
also stands for a unique club sound – an eclectic mix of electronic
music, breakbeat, hip hop and rock. It’s not easy to categorize and
pigeonhole his style - but at the same time Rafik never leaves his
crowd out of sight and knows how to rock every party with his unique
style and skills. You’ll find DJ Rafik travelling around the globe
– from Europe to the US, from the UAE to China, Japan to Australia,
sharing stages with acts like Roni Size, Craze, The Roots, DJ
Premier, Guilty Simpson, Q-Bert etc. The technical finesse of a
6-times world champion combined with the musical understanding of a
true musician without bounds – this is DJ Rafik.
