Z-Trip, the Phoenix DJ and producer born Zach Sciacca, is a pioneer of the mashup, the art of slamming records from opposite ends of the shop together until they sound like they were always meant to meet.
His album Shifting Gears came out in 2005 on Quannum Projects, and "Walking Dead" was the one that crossed over to rock radio's countdowns. As a producer he has worked across the map, with LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Kasabian and Dan the Automator, and he later did duty as LL Cool J's touring DJ. He picked up an America's Best DJ Award in 2009, made the Attack the Block mixtape with Talib Kweli, and in 2012 put his name on a mixer, the 62-Z, built with Rane and Serato.
