Andres rendition of Biggie's "Playa Hater"

2011-05-21T22:28:00.000-07:00

In lieu of what would have been Christopher Wallace's 39th birthday, singer/songwriterAndres recorded his own rendition of Biggie's "Playa Hater", which was off of the "Life After Death" album.

Released as a double album on March 25, 1997, "Life After Death" was The Notorious Big's final studio album that was certified diamond in 2000.

Andres is one of Canada's best pure vocalists and is about to unleash his latest project- "Enfermo De Amor- The LoveSick Mixtape". With this latest effort, Andres is making a strong case for himself as one of the top Canadian artists to watch in 2011.

"Enfermo De Amor - The LoveSick Mixtape" will be released this summer!

Barbershop music is a Mix CD. Its a collection of songs, edits, remixes, blends, whatever you'd like to call them that the Moustache Men put together. One of the best work DJ New Money has been involved with since he started deejaying.

Official Single Frankie J (Crush) Produced by hAZEL of Vanguards Music

2009-11-10T19:21:00.000-08:00

Its OFFICIAL!!! Frankie J and his fans have chosen 'Crush On You' (Produced by hAZEL) as his official single.

Hailing from Tulsa, Oklahoma hAZEL met up with DJ Kemo after moving to Vancouver. Soon after hAZEL became an official member of Vanguards Music. More importantly, hAZEL is the melodic piece of the group and was the other contributing member to creating the beat for Kardinal's chart topping 'Dangerous.'

Frankie J's got heart. The platinum-selling pop maestro's inimitable voice combines Latin swagger and R&B soul, propelling infectious, unforgettable tunes. In fact, Frankie's carried more than a few hooks to the top of the charts, including "Don't Wanna Try," "Suga Suga" and "Obsession." He's garnered Radio Music, Latin Grammy and Latin Billboard award nominations, and he's received three BMI awards for his chart-topping tracks. Other big singles have included "That Girl" featuring Mannie Fresh and Chamillionaire, as well as Frankie's personal cover of Extreme's "More than Words." His massive success comes as a result of distinct cross-cultural and cross-genre appeal.

DJ Baby Yu pays tribute to BIGGIE.

2009-06-21T23:00:00.000-07:00

A DJ never forgets the very first LP they purchased. Just ask them. Their first LP is somewhat of a stepping stone into what turns out to become an ever lasting career as a DJ. The hard times help define your success and greatness. Your first LP reminds you of why you started and wanted to become one of the greatest DJs on earth.

DJ Baby Yu's very first LP was the single 'Juicy' from The Notorious B.I.G. And with that being said it's no wonder why he paid tribute to B.I.G with his latest mixtape 'DJ BABY YU presents- B.I.G.: The Mixtape: A Tribute to the Greatest Rapper of All Time'. 'This is my biggest accomplishment to date' states Baby Yu.

hunt.FM #89: “The Newness w/ Guest DJ Grouch”

2009-06-16T09:21:00.000-07:00

Based in Toronto, Canada, Grouch has been deejaying since the late 80's and got his first start competing in the DMC & ITF DJ Battles in the mid 90's. He was crowned 1998 Western Hemisphere Team Champion as part of the Turnstylez Crew with partners Lil' Jaz & D-Scratch. He has also toured, and worked with Toronto heavyweights Kardinal Offishall, Saukrates & Choclair. Grouch has kept busy by being part of many North American Hip Hop Tours such as the Lyricist Lounge in 1999 (with Choclair) and the G-Unit Canada Tour (with Melanie Durrant).

Being a multi-facetted DJ working in radio, clubs, competitions and shows it was a natural progression for Grouch to evolve his talent in the art of production. Inspired by the Jeep Beat producers of the 90's such as Kenny Dope, The Nubian Crackers & Frankie Cutlass, Grouch has crafted the perfect balance between the 2 genres. The first track, Ah One Two Oye, samples the late great Salsa legend Hector Lavoe.

DJ Hunt is known for his witty sarcasm, which at times can irritate the ladies...SOMETIMES. :) He is also known for being a geek when it comes to Mac and technology. However, what makes Hunt extremely creative is the fact he is a classically trained pianist, taught himself how to play the guitar and has been producing music and DJing for nine years. One of his latest projects have been these Drake Edits. Feel free to download them.

Aubrey “Drake” Graham is a Canadian actor, rapper and singer. So far he has released three mixtapes, 2006’s Room for Improvement, 2007’s Comeback Season, and 2009’s So Far Gone. He is in the beginning stages of recording his major label debut, tentatively titled Thank Me Later, which is projected to be released late 2009. The album is slated to include guest appearances by acts such as Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Trey Songz, Danny! and others. He is also working on Dr. Dre’s upcoming album Detox, and has worked with Michelle Williams on her album Unexpected.

'THE STARTING OF SCRATCH' IN REACH MAGAZINE SPECIAL EDITON

2009-06-08T23:41:00.000-07:00

Prior to the JUNOS in Vancouver, BC, I got to find out what sets 'World Famous DJ Starting From Scratch' apart from every other DJ and how he's wanting to produced again.

He's known for 'Doin' it Like No Other' and being Flow 93.5 'Mix Show Magician.' He also has the reputation for being 'Canada's number one DJ.' He's pretty much your favorite DJs favorite DJ. No Joke!

DJ Starting From Scratch's resume is very impressive and to some highly inspirational. He's the official tour DJ for Russell Peters, Keisha Chante and toured with Usher for his 'One Night Stand Tour.' Clinton Sparks has asked him to be apart of his 'Smash Squad DJ Crew' and he's the only Canadian Representative for DJ Whoo Kid's 'Shadyville DJ's Coalition.' This man has won every single award you can possibly think of for a DJ and has worked with John Legend, Faith Evans, Amerie, Beenie Man, Kardinal Offishal and more in studio. For his 15 year anniversary as a DJ he was awarded gold and platinum records from Virgin, BMG and Universal. You can only wonder what he will receive for his 20 year anniversary.

This mix is something that I came up with one random night when I went to edit another mix, I realized that I was moving to Toronto in a week away from all my friends and family. And I wanted to release something for everyone I know and love will enjoy even if it is the entire mix or parts of it. There is a song on this for everyone!

With that being said, with the help of a bunch of GREAT friends, family and advice from fellow DJ's I present... BRIGHT LIGHTS AND BIG CITIES.

DJ Coco Fresh Presents: 'Bright Lights and Big Cities' the mixtape release party

2009-05-18T16:00:00.000-07:00

DJ Coco Fresh's love for djing began when she first heard Flipout and Jay Swing on 'The World Wide Ride' on CFOX. Intrigued with their DJing skills, Coco Fresh wanted to figure out how to create these amazing mixes. She turned to her cd collection as if they were records and tried to scratch 'I scratched the hell out of my cds' states Coco Fresh 'and almost fell off my chair then my chair broke and I fell true story.'

Not even in her prime at the age of 21, DJ Coco Fresh's goal is to be the number one female DJ. Receiving pointers from DJs Kemo, Flipout, Starting From Scratch, Baby Yu, Hunt, Kap n' Kirk, Wristpect, Tanner and Khaled will guide her there.

On Thursday, May 21, 2009 at Tonic come celebrate DJ COCO FRESH’S going away party/ mixtape release as she presents her first EVER! Mixtape titled “ BRIGHT LIGHTS AND BIG CITIES.” She is making bold moves to be Canada's #1 Female DJ!
