Authentic Shit with Mark Ronson: Tonight 8-10pm EST, download the EVR Mobile app. I’ll be on 2x a month, eventually once a month for a bit while the man himself is busy working on new projects. Expect a lot of Wu this week. Since Kendrick has been starting to throw little jabs at Drake, the latest one he did is a Wu-Tang cover by Kendrick, battling Drake for his “Wu-Tang Forever” track off his album. Check my edit if you need a beefed up version of the Drizzy joint. The show is archived in case you miss it.
Redbull 3Style Canadian Finals: Had a great time this weekend meeting everyone, especially A-Trak who I knew way back when I battled as a turntablist.
I didn’t place, my set wasn’t bad, I just didn’t know that one of my routines was similar to another DJ’s from January, and I let the records play too long. I obviously like being a technical DJ, but I haven’t been glued to the DJ battle circuit since I was a big part of a turntablist scene 10 years back. Check the link if you didn’t know. I’m definitely heading towards making more music, and if you don’t mind how I babble about art and music, here’s a great interview I did with Trendhunter that was shot a few mornings before the Finals.
Speaking of videos, expect something soon with a bit of the routines I used in the Redbull 3style.
Shout out to Strombo who I ran into last week while spinning at the AGO. I’m proud of this Rexdale/Malton guy.
Here’s my list of upcoming gigs. I’m particularly excited for this Saturday in particular over in Liberty Village. Switch is always dope, I’m curious about the Beatboxing Finals (last year’s video) look crazy, also curious about Cabin because it’s a brand new spot on College I hear good things about, and Midnight Mix is always a festival of stupidness! And then Parkdale Drink, come on, I got love for that place.

Saturday Oct 26: Switch
Saturday Nov 2 : Cabin
Saturday Nov 9 : Canadian Beatboxing Finals, The Mod Club
