Watch The Fresherthans’ ‘Ain’t Nobody Fresher’ Routine


 
There are numerous turntablist groups but only a fraction of them produce their own music.
 
Enter The Fresherthans: a recently formed duo comprised of Canadian DJs Brace and Vekked. Both these guys have individually won awards, and in 2014, took second place in their first two competitions as a group: the DMC World Finals and the IDA World DJ Championships.
 
Building on their momentum, The Fresherthans have provided DJcity TV with an exclusive routine which features impressive scratching over three original compositions.
