Wow, when it rains, it pours. Major updates on the site as we prepare for WMC in Miami. Heres a mix I did for my dudes Crookers from Italy. Its got a really fun house-y vibe to it. I love every track on here, and I think it holds a consistent vibe, and builds nicely. Oh, and I’m rather proud of the cover art too
Check out the new logo! This is the cover for the new CD, its an MP3 Sampler disc which contains 16 tracks, and 7 full length mixes! I’ll have copies at WMC in Miami, and any shows in the next while. Come up and ask for one! Big thanks to Josh Ruck for the amazing design work!

“The tracks on this mix have been percolating in my consciousness for a while. I wanted to make a DJ mix that I could listen to on my commute. Problem is, I don’t drive, I work nights and I spend nearly three hours a day on the subway here in Toronto. This mix is gritty when it needs to be, sexy when it wants to be, and dreamy when it has to be.”

“When Matty C first told me about the White Light series, he kept coming back to a description of listening to music while driving at night. Since most of us in New York City don’t drive, traveling music has to be approached differently. So I set out to make a mix from records I never get a chance to play out that would provide the perfect soundtrack to the walking, turnstile hopping, dude-selling-his-beat-tape-out-front-of-Fat Beats-avoiding, taxi-hailing, dollar-van-riding, slice-grabbing, coffee-on-the-run-drinking, and then walking a little more that is getting around the Rotten Apple.”

Here’s my latest mix for the White Light Series which I currate with Matty C. Head over to www.whitelightmixes.com to get them all!
“It’s been amazing to see this series blossom into what it has become! My last White Light mix (Vol 5) was one of my favourite mixes that I’ve ever done, but I wanted to go deeper on this one to really catch the ‘Night Driving / Zone Out’ vibe. This one is much less vocal, way more mind trip, and features some very strong productions from acts who are really pushing this sound. This is pretty heady, moody stuff, and the vocals that were picked resonate strongly with emotion. I hope this mix strikes a nerve and is the cosmic soundtrack along your ways. Look towards the light!”

It’s about to get crazy in Vancouver and Whistler! I’ll be around soaking in the international vibes, so for anyone that’s come across me on Google and looking for a DJ for their club event, corporate party or private function, feel free to hit me up directly, or via my booking agent Miche at the Stirling Agency. Contact info below!
Ok, New Years Resolution is to update this site more often!
First off, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! Everyone’s posting gifts, and I don’t really have much to offer at the moment. (Resolution 2, get back to work on tracks!). Heres an edit I made that might be passing its expiry date, but its something, right? Its an edit of Pon De Floor edits, including our Smoke & Mirrors edit (which was included in DJ Medhi & Busy P’s Essential mix), parts of Mighty Mi’s Rap mashup, and parts of the Beataucue Remix. Here’s a video of my dude Fashen playing it at the Livestock Block Party in Vancouver. It was also charted by Brodinski in November, which was kinda nice, albeit undeserving haha. Been asked about this quite a bit so here it is for you. Enjoy!
Aight, so tomorrow’s the big night. I’ll be ringing it up in style @ Moejoes in Vernon. Pretty hyped to play a bit of everything, and the crowd there has always been great!
Thursday is the new Friday in 2010 it seems, check out these great shows in the next 2 weeks:
