Much like his mythological philosopher-magician namesake, DJ Faust is ahead of the learning curve.
In 1998, Faust made history with the release of the first full-length, all-scratching album in history, the critically lauded Man Or Myth. His visionary approach to music has made him a turntablist icon earning him worldwide recognition and his numerous original albums have attracted licensing features for The World Cup, X-Games & networks such as MTV, ESPN, CNN & NBC.
Faust's contributions to Scratching, Beat Juggling and party rockin' earned him a spot in Doug Prays' award winning documentary SCRATCH (Palm Pictures) seen in theatres across the globe as well as networks HBO, VH1, Cinemax, Showtime, Sundance, Independent Film Channel & more.
His skills as a DJ & Producer have earned him rave reviews in publications such as Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, Slap, Thrasher, Muzik, NY Times, Washington Post, DJ Times, XXL, Source, etc. as well as a ranking of one of the top 5 turntablists in the world by Spin Magazine. Faust has shared the stage with high profile talent like The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Method Man, Krs-One, Afrika Bambaataa, Dilated Peoples, The X-ecutioners, Q-Bert, Craze and many, many others. A veteran globetrotter, Faust has rocked nightclubs, special events, & concerts across the U.S., Canada, France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Korea, Italy, UK, & Holland spinning styles ranging from Hip-Hop, Funk & Soul to House, Breaks and Drum & Bass mixed to genius proportions.

"Stanton 680 AL cartridges were the first needles I ever used and had the same pair for over 10 years. If that's not a testament to the outstanding quality of their needles, I don't know what is. Stanton is a true pioneer of the DJ world."
