[TOR] 11/28 -MOVERS&SHAKERS- SLIM PICKINS (AB) + STICKBUBBLY

[onpointrich]

On Saturday, November 28, we showcase some rising talent behind the decks with Movers & Shakers. This time around, we have a special treat inside TOI bar with some of Canada's fresh faces.

SLIM PICKINS (Calgary, AB)
- The Supreme Hustle / Boodang Music Canada / Future Roots Recs / Dubsac / http://www.djslimpickins.com
- As one half of the Supreme Hustle dj duo with Mark Instinct and an original Boodang Music Canada DJ, Slim Pickins is always on the grind. His passion for music stems from the combination of a varied musical upbringing and a heavy exposure to urban music at a young age. Deep ties to the world of hip hop, breakbeats and funk led Slims to take his place behind the turntables and since then there has been no looking back. A decade of drums later has brought Slim into the upper echelon of breakbeat culture as a result of timeless performances as a dj, a respected history as a promoter & in recent years an up and coming producer.

A new focus on showcasing the heavyweight bass sound that has taken the West Coast by storm saw the launch of Supreme Hustle for 2009. Teaming with the likes of 12th Planet (LA), Trill Bass (ATL), DZ (San Fran), Babylon System (San Fran), Excision (BC), Datsik (BC), The Supreme Hustle is intent on bringing the low end movement out to the masses by combining bassbin shattering beats, B-boy breaks & irie riddims into a dancefloor friendly format.

Armed with deep crates stocked full of an upfront selection of funky tunes from all genres, Slims strives to create a energetic and unique vibe. Incorporating mainly reggae, dancehall, hiphop and dubwise influences with a touch of soul, jazz and funk into his performances, SP prides himself on a versatile style that seamlessly blends all styles of bass heavy music. Showcasing his sounds and skills on the wheels of steel at various events all across the country has gained Slim Pickins the reputation as one of Canada's favorite party rockin' djs, a reputation which continues to grow exponentially with each new musical endeavor. His trademark sound has gone international on more than a few occasions with SP touching down in America and New Zealand to spread his heavyweight bass vibes.

STICKBUBBLY
- The Business / Source Records (U.K) / Betamorphics / Padded Cell
- As recent winner of the TDNB Award for Best Breakthrough Producer for 2009, Stickbubbly is one of the most unrecognized talents in Toronto. Being one of the few dj's in the G.T.A that plays their own tracks, Stickbubbly slays every dance floor he comes across with his unique sound now known as the "Bubbly sound". He is one of the front men behind the legendary Arnold's Drum and Bass Nights presented by the Business with Chilton Gaines, and with many releases over the years on labels such as Source Records (U.K), Betamorphics, and Padded Cell, Stickbubbly has toured Canada, and played in various cities around the world. If you don't know of him yet, you better educate yourself because he is destined to become a well recognized name in the drum and bass scene worldwide. Now branching out into his own Dubstep sound, which is grabbing everyone's attention, this top notch producer is quickly becoming an underground favourite in the scene.

DUNGEON KRU
- http://www.bassjunkees.com, Platform, Future Sound, Skankin'
- Casanova and Slick are the fresh faces of today and they have the fresh sound. As recent winners of Best Breakthrough DJ's at the 2009 Toronto Drum & Bass Awards, and with the success of their radio show on bassjunkees.com, they are ready to bring you some new sounds with some Drum & Bass and Dubstep. Watch out!
