Kelowna-based DJs Stickybuds and Jpod (the beat chef) have formed a connection where they slice & dice genres while blowing minds and speakers alike. Jason & Tyler are crafty and suave and are addicted to dirty beats, bomb acapellas and genre-mashing combos. They have both performed individually at The Shambhala Music Festival in 2005 and in '06 a decision to link their time slots together offered a memorable 4-hour funk throw-down that solidified The StickyPod Connection as a project to pursue & perfect. Now they're on a roll with out-of-control shows all over the West. They're not afraid to push the boundaries of conventional dance music and go way beyond the technical simplicity of mixing tunes. They use their gear like musical instruments to de-construct Reggae, Hip Hop, Funk, Breaks, and DnB as they re-construct live edits & mashes using the dopest acapellas and the phattiest shoe-skool grooves. Ty & Jay are cool cats with an infectious party style who assault dance floors. They love what they do and so do their fans, so get your feet in check and be prepared to get infected by their insane energy.

Stereoshift, per.ception
[ www.stereoshift.org ] | [ www.per.ception.ca ]
Breaching the stability of BC's loudspeakers, Heidrogen is sure to yoke your mind. By intelligent set design, melodies get crafted and spliced into a well-sequenced designed disorder. With common ingredients of glitch, psy, bass, and crafty drum patterns, it is not uncommon to have to squeegy random kin off the ceiling. Movement becomes necessity.

LYSSA

[ www.flydjs.biz ]
Her first appearance as DJ "Lyssa" took place in December 2005. Since then, she has appeared at the Interior's biggest & most popular events in Kamloops, Kelowna, Vernon and various outdoor spots. She made Victoria her home in spring 2007 & has been blessing people with her own style of chicago tech house.

MISHADOW
Anthrowolf Productions
Mark lures the crowd with his bass heavy electro and packs the dance floors until early hours of the morning. His music feeds the fire leaving the dancers craving for more. Born and raised in the heart of the kootanys, this is where it all began. His ears lit when he first heard electronic music at the age of 14 while dancing under the stars at Shambhala.

aye, i suppose i could follow your suggestion. but nah. i think i will stick around a little longer.

QFT. really, this place is infantile. i signed up here hoping for a new community of electronic music addicts. what i found is somewhere with an average intelligence and level of decorum resting somewhere between grade 8 and 9.

i love the intelligent discussion on here.

hey, your right! i don't know wtf he did to be honest, but he makes some unreal fuckin music with that stuff.

this is his shopping list:

Cassiel - 6th Halo Recordings - Vancouver
An oldschool name in the interior electronic music scene, Dallas brings a dark and progressive eclectic sound. His new mix, Television, is inspired by filthy rotten dark sounds-scapes with electro and trance-ish elements.

Cannibass - Edmonton, Alberta
Devon is flying with his live-PA gear to couple up with the turntables and deliver metric shitloads of funky ass breakbeats.

Psyentifica - Infinity Loop Music - Salmon Arm
The brains behind one of the interior's best ambient and trance labels, Infinity Loop Music, Catalin brings us a live melodic soundscape with some tracks off his former "Gate 8" CD Release.

Briden - Stereoshift - Kamloops
As a huge contributor to the growth of the stereoshift music collaborative, Brian drills audiences with freshly farmed beets.

granted, marc emery is a little biased.

i'm just going on the fact that it's known worldwide that BC produces quality bud.
tell your friend to come visit me :)

a) never i guess
b) we don't :)

well, i'll have to come take a sampling someday :)

i don't speak french!

our outdoor is killer too though, it's easy to grow good bud indoors.

me :)

would give you some vics vaporub, a gas mask, and a dj micro mixtape.

the roll effect ROCKS. use it with crush.

oh yeah, btw, i got a DJM800 and a 500W blacklight cannon. i'll lend it to you, no problem.. you pickup and return. i'm in BC :)

i guarantee the pot is better anyway.

psst, i am in BC.

sucks to be you guys!

ah what, did i spell it wrong? sacre bleu!

stuff IS happening, right now.

i'm pretty good at avoiding it, i have thick skin :)

i suppose i do to.. i haven't been laid in.. *checks watch* holy crap 9 hours!

to tell you the truth, i came here to get away from all that. i'm here to find interesting people, good music, and hopefully make some friends, that's it.

what's wrong with being nice?

ah there it is! thanks!

i think i'd have to pass..

ha, we'd love to have infected mushroom, we are a little smaller time than that though :)

so, does that mean we are able to upload .zip files? containing jpgs instead of uploading pix one at a time? cuz that, would rock.

so how do i check who's stalking me?

i don't know, it doesn't turn me on.

if you are not aware, the future of the internet is in danger.

as we speak, laws are being made (or not being made) that will destroy the internet as we know it. in a nutshell, big corporations are leaning on ISPs and lawmakers to give their traffic PRIORITY over all other traffic.

this means that for example, all your packets deemed important will get through quickly. your packets NOT deemed important, will take longer, or may not arrive at all.

if the big corporations get there way, only those big players that can afford to pay outrageous fees, will be able to have their traffic delivered reliably. this will destroy the internet completely in my view. CNN and Fox will work just fine. [ indymedia.com ] [ liquidbeat.com ] [ stereoshift.org ] these sites are not important. we will be shoved to the back of the list. the internet will become closer to radio and television distribution models, where only the rich can afford to speak. this is FUCKING BULLSHIT. this is against everything the internet stands for.

this is not a scam. this is not a conspiracy theory. it's already happening, and we all need to do our part to stop it. does anyone have any opinions?

by the way i don't actually speak french, my friend from montreal told me to say that and i'd fit right in. seems to have worked!
