DCS905 Design – Video Promo

Spent a large part of the weekend putting this monster together, in hopes of gaining hits on my design website, and some clients for video production. The music is a track I did with Catacomb called ‘Disfunction’, due out this spring with another one on the flip.

Here we fucking go!!

I’ll be getting right smashed @ DARKRAVE on Saturday. Come check out my first DnB gig since October last year! I have a ton of new material that will debuting, and i’m just generally pumped to tear the fucking roof off the place.

The party starts at 6pm Friday Jan.1, and ends at 10am Sunday.

Also with the new year, comes another website layout for DCS905 Radio. By updating once again I’ve gotten rid of the framework setup that was slowing me down, so editing and modifying stuff is much less time consuming… Which I’m ok with.

Insomnia + Reminiscing

Question me and I’ll laugh in your fuckin’ face.  Question that and i’ll laugh even harder.  I play music to keep myself out of a sanitarium.  Its my release.  You try to bring me some fuckin’ rules to it, and breakdown how the system works, when in fact you are calling out your own ignorance, because for the most part, DJ’ing is a solo venture… And if I’m told I can do this/I can’t do that/I’d look stupid doing this/don’t blah blah blah, I’m only going to revolt and laugh at you again.

i’m a fuckin dj.

While digging through some very old blog stuff, I came across this little gem of a quote. I’m not exactly sure what my headspace was when it came about, but I can feel the emotion while reading it back.

I have a lot of passion in my life. Maintaining the focus & drive that I once had can be a challenge, and looking back at the last few years of my life shows that in a very big way.

Less than a month until 2010.  A bunch of monsterous ‘life’ stuff is happening right now… But my passion for music and technology remains strong.  Standby for launch.

Promo Whoring

In the past week I’ve submitted the blog to a mass amount of directory & ratings sites… Hopefully boost a bit of traffic and spread the tekno that much further. Scope this madness out:

DCS905 Radio Update:

Last night’s “Friends of CIUT” pledge drive went really well. The roster of DJ’s was on point, our phone volunteers were lookin great, the studio sounded crisp, and the support from our listeners was great… We actually got a call from California! The pledge forms are still up @ CIUT.fm ,  so no worries if you missed the broadcast!

Big updates coming this week on the DCS905 Radio site… The archives will be exploding with new audio, a bunch of new press, completed bios, and a photo gallery! GO THERE!

Crazy Times

Putting words to the last few months of my life, especially outside of the dnb world, has been pretty tough. I did put a review together for the Planet Of The Drums / Chris Liberator party in London ON, which is featured @ Kmag’s CanaDNBa blog, check it out!

Another entry of note missing from the blog recently, is that of the ‘2nd Annual Toronto Drum & Bass Awards‘. I received 2 nominations on the night,  in the ‘Best Breakthrough DJ’ & for ‘Best Radio Program’ for DCS905 Radio. The Awards night took place this past Sunday with DJ Friction headlining, and a number of locals rounding out the bill. I wasn’t lucky enough to take home any accolades, but I had a good time for the most part. Next year we’ll be running a massive campaign for the radio show though… For the 5th year of broadcast, I think the ‘Award Winning’ title would be great promo.

I’m working on music like a fucking fiend. Fuck the world, I’m making beats. Projects with Catacomb, Grimm, Aconit, & Illweather are all underway for DnB, while tunes with Fuzzboy & DJ Opel are kicking off under my 4/4 alias ‘Hexagon’.

I’m meeting with the surgeon to deal with my back issues in early November. That shit freaks me out. In doing so, I’ll be taking a bunch of time off from bookings & DJ performances. Friday Nov.13th for the TDSK 9 Year Anniversary will be my last show until sometime in 2010. Don’t miss it.
