Hurley's
mixing style is different than the usual radio-club
DJ who plays house music, since his style of club
mixing incorporates advanced DJ tricks only done by
hip hop DJs or turntablists, such as scratching, cutting,
drop outs, back spins, and beat juggling.
He had many worldwide hits including ‘I
Can’t Turn Around’ which hit number
one in 1986.

Hurley also worked as a prominent remixer,
re-working tracks for the likes of Madonna, Prince, Jennifer
Lopez, Brandy and Crystal Waters, and many of these artists'
songs only became international hits after getting the Silk
treatment.
Sharing the bill is another legend.
With
more television appearances than any other rapper
in history, DJ Cut Creator has been
voted in the Top 20 Hip Hop DJs of All Time in Newsweek
Magazine for more than 25 years.
This man is an icon in the Hip Hop industry and as
the right-hand man for LL Cool J he released ‘What’s
My DJ Name – CutCreator’ one of rap’s
most known lyrics.
