The best way to remember DJ Rashad and to honor his musical legacy is to observe the man in his element.

Below are three performances from the Chicago footwork legend, who died yesterday.

The first is video is a session Rashad and DJ Spinn did from the Red Bull Music Academy in Madrid; the second a full set from Teklife, the DJ crew of which Rashad was a member, at a Pitchfork Festival after party; and the third an excerpt of DJ Rashad's performance from the Pitchfork Music Festival, courtesy of the website itself.
