About Me

UPCOMING & RECENT SHOWS:
=========================================
SHORT BIO:
For years now dj Spinz has been one of Toronto's top drum and bass selectors. He is not just a dj, he is an entertainer, known for his energy and intensity behind the decks. His mixing skills are second to non and his scratching rips the dance apart every time! Spinz sets himself apart from the pack with his programming skills, weaving a set through peaks and valleys until the dancefloor has no choice but to explode. Known as one of North America's most versatile dnb djs, he can play anything and loves to test his audience with something they weren't expecting. Get ready...dj SPINZ takes no prisoners.
He has played supporting sets for everyone from Fabio to Dillinja to Andy C, each time further cementing his place at the forefront of the Canadian d'n'b circuit. This is evident as he has been a regular spinning for some of North America's most legendary promotion companies such as Syrous, Destiny and Hullabaloo, not to mention having headlined parties in California, New York, Pittsburgh, Michigan and in almost every major Canadian city.

dj Spinz - Sudden Def radio show / Solid Soldiers radio show
heavy dancefloor action

This one just appeared as part of two different radio shows: Sudden Def in the UK and also for Solid Soldiers radio in North America. Since i think neither has an archive of past shows I thought I'd put it up for people to grab. This was intended to be the first installment of my SpinzCycle podcast but I decided to mix up something even fresher for the first show. Still this is mostly unreleased stuff as of Summer 2006 ;)
