Enter XI... or is it Ultragamma? In either guise, his bass heavy chop suey style is far superior to your Kung Fu any day.
XI hails from Toronto, Ontario & was one of the first few people in Canada seriously pushing Dubstep both in his musical productions & by his involvement in the popular Subtrac dance parties in 2006. Since signing his first 12", "G Funk 3000" to Lo Dubs in 2007 & releasing a slew of high grade Dubstep tunes worldwide, he has never looked back.

XI brings a distinctive sense a motion and texture to his tunes with his slinky hi-hats & gelatinous bass.
His discography includes collaborations with DJG, DZ & Juakali & he has been remixed by Headhunter and has himself remixed tunes by El Rakkas, Egyptrix & James Yuill.

Sometime during the course of human history, XI began producing music well outside the Dubstep spectrum. We call this sound Ultragamma.

XI is also part of Loetech, in collaboration with Bombaman. The 2 dudes bring their special brand of Northern harm to the airwaves every Sunday 8-10 pm on Subfm

XI has Dj'ed all across Canada, at Dubwar in NYC, in San Francisco & Los Angeles & has played alongside such notables as Skream, Kode9, Loefah & Joe Nice.
XI first visited the bass cave in June 2009 alongside Daega Sound. We are beyond happy to have him back!
With a steady flow of excellent tunes & releases coming out on labels all over the globe, XI has proven his weight as one of Canada's true ambassadors of Dubstep & bass heavy music.

Also in effect:
Daddy Longlegs!
A fresh sound in the control booth, Daddy's got his hands in many things; battery powered music, production, DJing, radio, journalism. Coming late to DJing through audio work for performance art, he has a particular attention to environmental and atmospheric elements of a live set. Daddy Longlegs sets plumb the line between ambient, dub, and dubstep. His recent obsession with battery powered music and non-traditional hand-held instruments is sure to be on display & has created a small stir sure to build into a storm by next summer.
