Greetings from the 2010 Vancouver Olympics!




What's upppp people!

I'm writing you from the crib in Van City! Yessss I said "The Crib" I lucked out & got my own condo to stay at out here...BIG shouts to the homie DJ TANNER for the link...score! Aaaanyway, it's the 2010 Winter Olympic games & I'm out here doing a series of shows at the MOLSON CANADIAN HOCKEY HOUSE! It's been absolutely dope sauce thus far. I've performed with Bryan Adams & Barenaked Ladies with more Canadian legends to come! An amazing experience! I'm truly blessed!

Vancouver is buzzzzzing right now. So many people on the streets, everyone in a great mood and 99% of them...well...us lol.. are wearing Canadian Olympic gear! I thought I was gonna look like a Captain Canuck stepping out w/ my Canada toque, hoody, scarf & gloves, but I blend right in :) Needless to say, I'm having a blast! Unfortunately I'm out here solo as my partner Short Sirkit has other gigs to handle including a show at THE WHISKEY in Calgary 2nite w/ the homie JOE GHOST, a show in Grande Prairie Alberta on Friday and of course the TORONTO RAPTORS games this week. Thankfully the Raptors gave me a couple games off so that I could be out here for the Olympics.

Here are a couple pics from my adventures thus far!













Ohh...and Happy Valentines Day & Gung Hay Fat Choy!

My Farewell


I'm writing this simply to clear the air about my decision to leave Mashup Mondays at Rockwood, and I'll try to keep it short & sweet.

This was my favorite weekly party & truly one of, if not THE dopest residency I've ever had. The team & staff are awesome, I've met some amazing people there & I've had the opportunity to bring my DJ friends from all over to spin & enjoy it with me. What I loved most about this night was that it was different than any other club night in the city. I was able to play my rarest, most enjoyable mix of music to a diverse crowd who enjoyed partying to a vibe that they couldn't get just anywhere. It was the alternative to the average TOP 40/Urban club night that happens in every club, every weekend in every city....and I loved it for that!

Unfortunately I guess it was too good to last, & after spinning Mondays for over 2 1/2 years, it seems to have become just another regular club night, to me at least. I play tons of regular club nights all over the world, and they're cool, but Mondays were my "different" night where I didn't have to play all the latest hits all the time to make people happy. I feel like it's changed over time, as most things do, and for this reason it's simply not the same for me anymore.

I'm thankful for having had the opportunity to play this night for the time that I did, as it was enjoyable, fulfilling, and it definitely helped me grow as a DJ. It's been my pleasure to introduce newer & older music to ears that may not have heard it otherwise. And I'm proud to have been a part of the award winning team who built this legendary night from the ground up. We set out to accomplish something, and we did it!

I wish the team, and the staff nothing but the best for the future of Mashup Mondays at Rockwood. I'm sad to be walking away, and I will definitely miss it, but I feel that it's time for me to move on.

Hope that clears it up. No hard feelings whatsoever, and if anything I've said here or prior seems offensive, know that it was not my intention. Simply saying what I feel, and those who know me know that's just who I am.

NEW MIX: SNAKESKIN




Bonjourrrr!!!!

As you may know I just got back from my most recent European Tour on which I rocked shows in Oporto Portugal, Brussels Belgium, Napoli Italy and ended it all off in Paris France! How was it? DOPE SAUCE!!!!! Despite the fact that I did it solo (sans Short Sirkit on) it was a really great tour!

Just before I left however, I recorded a NEW MIX for the homie DJ SNAKE's podcast in Paris. He's one of the brightest rising stars on the scene, tearing up Europe & his production is starting to make noise worldwide. He's a part of our Int'l DJ Team "THE FEDS" so u know I gotta big him up! But for real, dude is on fire right now! DJ SNAKE and his new production partner CLINTON SPARKS, together known as LOGAN DeGAULLE, have produced tracks & remixes for TYRESE, PITBULL, CHESTER FRENCH & have lotssss more to come!

Check out DJ SNAKE at: www.DJSNAKE.fr

But i digress...I recorded a mix for SNAKE's podcast in Paris & now I'm sharing it with you!
