DJ version of Guitar Hero incoming
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 28 July 2009
Well, you know what they say, “if you can’t play, DJ”. Or, to bring that up to date, “if you can’t pretend to play, pretend to DJ”. Yes, the people behind ‘Guitar Hero’ are working on a deejay equivalent to be called ‘DJ Hero’ obviously, and reportedly Jazzy Jeff, Grandmaster Flash, DJ Shadow, DJ AM, and DJ Z-Trip are all signed up to participate in the first edition of the game.
Jazzy Jeff told AllHipHop.com: “I am very, very excited DJ culture is finally getting its due. To have a song in ‘DJ Hero’ is a dream come true; to be a character someone can pick up the controller and select you and play is probably the biggest thing to happen to me in my career. Music is so much a part of everyone’s life, ‘DJ Hero’ is going to appeal to almost everybody”.
