Vol. 013 – Wax Romeo

Wax Romeo is undoubtedly the world’s greatest lover, but when he’s done blowing kisses at the mirror, he can be found whipping out evvy choons in the studio, or playing his Friday night residency at Calgary’s Hifi Club.

His father, a well-dressed thief known for carrying a cache of weapons inside a steel drum, taught Romeo about marauding and defrauding at a very early age. Since then, he’s fleeced more fools than The North Face, stealing whatever he can, including the Golden Titty, which belonged to the dangerous Jamaican “Blouse an’ Skirt Posse”.

Having collected funk and disco records since he was just a yute, it wasn’t long till he figured out just how small bits of those records fit nicely on the 16 pads of his MPC 2000xl; and subsequently, how to rearrange those bits of records onto new records of their own.

Then came DJing. Flash forward a few years, and this dummy’s played with all kinds of people, all over North America, including the Shambhala Music Festival (Canada), The Rub and Flashing Lights (NYC), SXSW (Austin), and Mexico.

When he’s not writing self-congratulatory bio’s, or sleeping with his socks on, Monsieur le Romeo continues his quixotic journey through the landscape of house, disco, and techno, armed only with a winning smile and delusional self-confidence. If your party needs some step, Wax Romeo will get here fast, driving his empty brown limousine in the carpool lane. Get aroused.

Vol. 006 – Neighbour

“This is a 90-odd minute mix I did right here in my living room, using 2 Turntables and a Rane TTM57. No edits or fixes, just a raw session from the East Van headquarters. Some new exclusives from Nurvous, Fort Knox, and Homebreakin, along with some stuff i’ve been loving all year.

I’ll be at the following shows, come say ‘hi’ and challenge me to a dance battle, early morning badminton match, or nitrate-eating competition:

Bushwacked (Vernon Area), Kootenanny (East Shore / Creston) May 18 – May 20th
Sync Music Festival (Golden) June 1 – June 4th
Tall Tree Festival (Port Renfrew) June 21 – June 23rd
Astral Harvest (North of Edmonton) July 5 – 8th
The Kulth (Coombs) July 21 – July 22nd
Bass Coast Festival (Squamish) August 3 – 6th
Shambhala (Kootenays) August 8 – 13th

I’m going to be purchasing two thousand pairs of socks.

Keep supporting your local artists, and don’t forget to visit your favorite retailer and buy some music now and then!”
