DJ Z-Trip (born Zach Sciacca) is a Phoenix, Arizona native, he was known early in his career for performing with the Bombshelter DJs (DJ Emile, DJ Radar, and DJ Z-Trip).

He became widely known when his collaboration with DJ P, Uneasy Listening, Vol. 1, was released in 2001. Only 2000 copies were made, but the album was soon distributed over the Internet in MP3 format.

His album Shifting Gears marked his major label debut, and was his first full length album of production work. Released on Hollywood Records in 2005, the album features guest artists Supernatural, MURS, Lyrics Born, Luke Sick, Aceyalone, Mystic, Prince Whipper Whip, Busdriver, Chester Bennington (from Linkin Park), Chuck D (from Public Enemy) and Soup (from Jurassic 5).

Z-Trip is featured in the 2001 documentary Scratch and is found in special features showing off some technique.

Z-Trip contributed several pieces of work to EA Games' release Skate.

He performs with Serato Scratch Live as well as traditional vinyl. As of August 2006, Z-Trip has left Hollywood Records.
