\"Trayze\"
\n Trayze competes at the Red Bull Thre3style US Finals in Philadelphia on Aug. 11, 2016. (Tim Blackwell)<\/span><\/p>\n

If you follow the Red Bull Thre3style<\/a> DJ competition, you’ve most likely heard of Trayze. The Washington, D.C. native is this year’s US champ and was a wild card finalist in the 2014 world championship. He’s also an instructor at the Beat Refinery<\/a> DJ and production school, which has partnered with DJcityTV for a series called Turntable Techniques<\/a><\/em>. And when Trayze isn’t competing in battles or teaching folks how to use Ableton Live, he can be found rocking clubs around the US. Below are five must-have items that he always carries in his DJ bag.<\/p>\n

\"Items\"<\/p>\n

SubPac M2 wearable subwoofer<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

“This may be my favorite piece of mobile studio gear. Paired with my Ultimate Ears UE-7 in-ear monitors, it’s the most incredible listening experience ever. It’s battery-powered and wireless with Bluetooth!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Lucky stones<\/span><\/p>\n

“I carry small pieces of jade, turquoise, and moonstone. They’re gifts from my wife; you never know when you’ll need energy or extra good luck!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Huawei E5770 mobile Wi-Fi hotspot<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

“The E5770 provides LTE speed anywhere in the world. It works with all SIM card sizes, and I can charge my iPhone with it for like five times. It supports 10 devices at once!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Colgate Wisp mini-toothbrushes<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

“I can’t tell you how many times I’ve brushed my teeth in the back of an Uber. Maybe my wife is trying to tell me something…”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

“Since I travel with a pretty small laptop, it’s essential that I have more USB ports and other inputs and outputs, especially if I want to use HID mode with CDJs or use multiple MIDI controllers. It has video in\/out and a sound card!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
