About Me

CURRENT MISSION

3 hour encore tour of Europe spread out over 3 weeks.

ABOUT ME

I'm a DJ from Calgary Canada who also helps run an amazing music school here. I traveled for about 4 years in my early/mid twenties, making extended stays in Corfu, Argentina, NYC, Tolouse, Le Ville de Quebec & Montreal before returning home Calgary. Before I left, and since I've returned I've been very involved in the city's electronic music scene.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to be happy, and believe people should do whatever makes them happy as long as it doesent directly hurt others.
Basically whatever floats you boat!

I also hosted while living in Tolouse, Quebec City & Montreal, I started the first Calgary Couchsurfing group and made it out to meet ups and met some great surfers here, I kind of fell off the surfing map around 2009, what was i thinking?!

Music, Movies, and Books

Lots of Rap, Disco, House, 70s Punk Rock, New Wave, Synth Pop, Latin, Moombahton, a little Techno here and there, as much 80's R&B as i can get my hands on, 50s country,Hair Metal, Surf Rock.... I like music. I read the classics, and anything in space, and history books about Europe and people who liked boats.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

my friend Dave smoked a whole pack (Canadain pack...25 smokes) of cigerettes at lunch one time in grade 7. in science class after lunch he turned a yelloee green colour like when bart gets sick on the simpsons, and then he puked in the garbage in the middle of class.....that was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

This happened at one of my apartments in Montreal in 2005, I felt the need to share it then, and i still believe it is helpful information: sometimes people who come into your house at night while your sleeping arent robbers....so relax....sometimes theyre just some drunk hungry muppets who want to drink your beer, eat your pie and spill a little leftover pasta on the floor and clean it up with random sweatpants and t shirts....so relax, theyere not robbers O.K?...O.K.
