The concept is simple DJ AM plays the sample/cuts/ and Travis blams out to the beat. They cover everything from Johnny Cash to Rage to The Police to Phil Collins to Prince to Eazy E to Kanye West to Biggie to Run Dmc to Rakim

Travis shows and proves on this ambitious unorthodox mixtape where you find Travis being able to follow the curveballs for the records right on cue when any record stops. Sick for a mixtape.

"Travis Barker and Dj AM have been touring the country for a little while now, I never got around to seeing the shows but I heard they were dope. Dj AM cuts it up and spins classic tracks and beats while Barker plays the drums over the mixing. A really cool concept. This is the mixtape, which features 15 tracks from some of the shows. A great mixtape. The audio quality is high, professionally recorded at the shows. Barker is in promo for his upcoming studio album featuring a whole bunch of rap artists. Should be cool.

Travis Barker seems to be drifting even further from the rock flock by teaming up with in-demand, genre-hopping turntablist DJ AM to form a freewheeling rock-hip-hop hybrid known as TRV$DJAM (you can download its new mixtape, "Fix Your Face," for free at www.trvsdjam.com).

The duo -- a kind of beat-driven version of the revolving-door rock collective Camp Freddy that already has hosted such high-profile guest stars as Paul Wall and Warren G -- will perform its third of three sold-out shows at West Hollywood's Roxy Theatre tonight before going on to serve as house band for the MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 7.

Three years ago, in the final countdown to Blink-182's acrimonious breakup, Barker reached out to DJ AM to collaborate after becoming inspired by the performance of a hip-hop DJ and a percussionist in New York. The L.A.-based disc jockey was initially skeptical.

"I was kind of apprehensive at first," DJ AM said. "I was thinking, 'Less is more.' Me juggling two records at the same time can be a lot for people to handle. Drums on top could have been too much."

He continued: "I hadn't heard his remixes and didn't know how amazing a drummer Travis is. But we got together, I threw on James Brown's 'Funky Drummer,' one of the most sampled beats in hip-hop, and 'I Know You Got Soul' by Bobby Byrd. His face would just open up; he would match the beat perfectly. I thought, 'Damn, this is fun.' It's like a skeleton you get to put the clothes on. And once the clothes are on, you yank out the spine."

Although both Barker and DJ AM already have solo recording contracts with Interscope Records, the two, who also have performed together a handful of times at the club LAX in Las Vegas, plan to record an album together and tour as TRV$DJAM."

Actually none of you cats will guess the sequence. You won't know what is coming at you.

I didnt even care for Blink 182. But this tape silences Cats who think Travis just can do those loud sloppy beats that you heard on youtube. I think some cats won't believe how Travis can switch from Funky Drummer break to Juicy to Rage Against The Machine with a snap of the fingers on his kit. Props should be given anytime you see him on the street.

And yea, he probably did do this on one or two takes.
