About Me



Andrew Allsgood has been Djing for 10 years this year and is one of Toronto's most diverse DJs. He plays across the board and can go from genre to genre smoothly in no time! In the 10 years he's been at it he has held residencies at Gypsy Co-op, The Social, Fez Batik snd is still going strong alongside Denise Banson every Friday at SYNCHRO @ Andy Pool Hall. He also does his Monthly Electropunkfunktecnoacid party, FASCINATION on the last Saturday of each month at Andy Pool Hall. One of the hardest working Dj's in Toronto Andrew is also imployed by Fusion 3, one of Canada's leading music importer/distributors. Hence Andrew's passion for eclectic dancefloor tunes. "Music is my life" is his motto so go hit him up and give him a pound when you see him behind the decks at a party near you. It's bound to be rocking!
