DJ Klever (born Josh Winkler) is an Atlanta-based turntablist/DJ and member of the Allies, a turntablist collective. Winkler has noted the mixing and scratching arrangements of DJ Premier and Jazzy Jeff as prominent influences of his turntable techniques. Shortly after forging ties with the Allies, Klever and fellow crew member Craze released Scratch Nerds in 2002. He's since released two battle-break records with DJ Shotgun (former Goodie Mob DJ) -- Dirty South Breaks and Get Crunk Breaks -- while nabbing production credits on Rob Swift's Sound Event and Bubba Sparxxx's Deliverance. ~ Vincent Thomas, Rovi
