Trevor McFedries (born November 27, 1985), was known professionally as Yung Skeeter and formerly known as DJ Skeet Skeet, is an American DJ, producer, director, manager, and recording artist currently signed to Dim Mak Records. He has worked as a DJ, producer, and director for acts like Katy Perry, Azealia Banks, Chris Brown,Steve Aoki, and others. He toured alongside Katy Perry on her 2011 California Dreams Tour.

Skeeter is also an Artist Advocate at Spotify and a brand ambassador for VitaminWater.

McFedries grew up in Davenport, Iowa. In high school, he was a "football star" and enjoyed playing basketball. He moved with his family to Los Angeles when he was 16. He earned a college scholarship to play football but dropped out of college and moved back to LA. Los Angeles has been his "home base" since that time. He started DJing at the age of 19.

As DJ Skeet Skeet, McFedries' music career took off in earnest in 2007 when he met Shwayze and Cisco Adler. The three created a partnership that would culminate in the 2008 release of a self-titled album. The album made it to the top 10 on the Billboard charts with two songs ("Buzzin'" and "Corona and Lime") that charted on the Billboard Hot 100 list. The popularity of the trio led to the creation of a short-lived reality television series on MTV called Buzzin'. Also in 2008, DJ Skeet Skeet was given the "People's Choice Award for Best DJ" by Paper Magazine. He also became the first DJ to perform at the entire slate of shows on the Warped Tour in 2008.
