The Japanese scratch DJ beat out artists from 16 different countries, joining the ranks of past winners DJ Craze, Mixmaster Mike and Q-bert.

In 1997, A-trak famously won the same title when he was 15, astonishing the world as the then-youngest victor.

Earlier this year, DJ Perly became the first ever female to win the DMC US Finals.
