About Me

A bit about what I do.
I'm a dj/producer in Toronto. Been spinning uplifting, funky disco house for the last 3 years in Toronto venues like Fly nightclub, SOMA, and lub lounge. In these years I've been invited to play Discotec @ the End (UK),Salvation @ Pacha (UK), Winter Party 2006 (Miami), BarNone (Vancouver) and one hell of a huge private Halloween house party in Los Angeles.
I currently play as an opener or headliner monthly at Fly (been dropping electro and more progressive tracks in these sets lately) .As a producer I work with my buddy Gavin Bradley. Together we're called Righteous. We've had two singles released in the UK. The first being a filtered disco, hands in the air anthem entitled Soul Clappin and the second single Love is Love featuring New York vocalist MJ White. Love is Love got picked up by the prestigious compilation label Hed Kandi and landed on their Disco Heaven 2006 comp.
We are currently in the studio working on a few different tracks as Righteous and Righteous' alter ego White Punks on Dope.
