SoulJah Sessions Radio
Add to My Profile | More VideosSeduced by the rave scene in the mid 90’s, Phodee6 got his hands on his first set of turntables late 1997. From there he dove head first, spending all his money on jungle and deep house music. A year later he found that DJing is not a cheap hobby and had to make a decision. Which genre should stay and which one should go? Hearing DJ Hype in Toronto quickly drove the final nail in the coffin for house and acted as a jolt of caffeine for the ever addictive Jungle/drum'n'Bass.
With an ever growing library of jungle records, and a thirst for DJing, Phodee6 got to show the world his love of this music when he got his chance to start a Jungle Drum'n'Bass show on a new radio broadcast station at Conestoga College in Kitchener. SoulJah Sessions Radio was born in spring of 2002 with the help of fellow junglist “Tongue Boxerâ€, and still runs on Canada's largest college broadcasting station CJIQ 88.3 fm, Saturday afternoons 1-3 pm.
With years of playing out, and running the show under his belt, Phodee6 was asked to be a member of the Chronic Sound System 519 crew. A collective of elite DJ’s who are dedicated to the jungle drum'n'Bass scene within the Kitchener-waterloo, and Cambridge area. After throwing parties for a couple years, CSS 519 head honcho Prime Ill and Phodee6 ventured to start a Ragga-jungle label. Cook N Curry Records was started to feature the best in local talent. The label has released two LP’s featuring the Dreaded Youths, aka Tallman and Russtafari. These two releases started an ongoing friendship which brought SoulJah Sessions and Chronic Sound System. Together they have thrown some of the tri-city’s best Jungle/Drum'n'Bass parties, featuring Top notch local talent, aswell as some of the most demanded acts from all over the world.
Early 2005 DJ's Bounty, Doobie and the ever hard working DJ Brizene came abroad the SoulJah Sessions train and transformed it into the best Jungle Drum/Bass radio show in Southern Ontario and maybe even the world. Probably in fact.... Yeah, we'll go with the best one in the world.
