twentyHz wants to know! - Who's Vancouver's top breaks DJs - Page 2

matéo · #26 (**permalink**) Jan 12, 04

Besides the usual I have named before Skip EZ haz impressed me with A: A mix he created at Vinyllab with Jeremy, B: When I have seen him live.

I think its safe to say that Cinto is rocking it too. The guy plays some good electro stuff on top of loads of unreleased CDRs and 90% of his own shit. Besides that he hasnt jumped this UK bandwagon and is doing fine without.

Then theres the usual picks most of who were mentioned above.

Vista :y:

Van Tek · #32 (**permalink**) Jan 13, 04

Adam V
Soma
Fluid
Soda

haven't had a chance to hear that many more DJs from around here

hopefully one day I'll make this list, but it ain't gonna be for til I get rid of this lame-ass Friday and Saturday and Sunday night job :sick:

I think some of the underdogs in this city could easily hold their own against some of the abovedogs or whatever u call them, LoL

^ thanks dood

Missing from your list:

FNK, Mateo, Soda,Soma, Akeel, The "C & A" from CAK, AWOL, Lenny... lots of breaks on the site :kimmie:

I think it's more diverse when you stick two breaks DJs together that have never played together and get them to spin a set. Even though you've heard them play a lot separately, the beatz are different when they tag. Just sounds more original.

But like AWOL said, this thread has been done to the moon and back, no?

twentyHz · #35 (**permalink**) Jan 13, 04

Yes Kimmie & Awol are both right in that this is a subject that has been discussed many times in the past. The only reason I started this thread was to hear about some new names that I may or may not have heard b4.

Looks as if this city knows and loves there local breaks DJs. I think I'm the only one that had Czech on my list.... a few years ago everyone would have list him.

Look to see a few of these names that you all have listed playing at twentyHz Wednesdays @ Lotus in the near future!

czech rocks, hes always on my list of local favorites....
i dont think ive ever heard soma play.......?

Van Tek · #37 (**permalink**) Jan 13, 04

I woulda put Czech on there but I hate watching him at small venues/clubs because he's always got this bored "I really shouldn't be playing at this gay-ass place" look on his face and he doesn't even try at all

Kraig · #38 (**permalink**) Jan 13, 04

Soda... that's because the godfather Czech is a given on pretty much everyones list!

Thanatos - you feed Czech enough Jager and he will play anywhere! :-p

Sean · #39 (**permalink**) Jan 13, 04

As Kraig said, it should be assumed that Czech is on everyone's list =P Add Soma to mine as well.

Wood · #40 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

Czech for sure. Soda a close second.

Spilt & Vinyl are 2 of my favorite locals, but more for their eclectic styles than for their breaks.

B-Funk · #41 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

CINTO

Mirka Cerny · #42 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

Yo!!!!!! who posted as me?!?!?!?! WTF??? Not that I disagree with the above statement, but my votes would be (in no particular order.....)

Track selection: Soda or Vinyl Ritchie
Technical brilliance: Emanuel Ferreria
Getting rumps shaking: Czech
Pushing the envelope: all of the above

matéo · #43 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

Soda the last 4 times I have seen Czech play he hasnt put too much effort into playing. But he has been on my list for a while.

Filo · #44 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

haha... i can't believe i actually made some people's lists. i got a long ways to go.

I'll have to go with Mateo, Soma, Lenny Ford, Kyle Nordman and the obvious top 4: Czech, VR, Precise & Soda

Filo · #45 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

oooh... i almost forgot.... Ryan Ross..... deserves a lot more credit than he's given.... mufucka can rock a party!

wigglesworth · #46 (**permalink**) Jan 14, 04

when he played at usc in seattle last year he did the same thing.
nothing special. played a track for 5 minutes then mixed out.
weak. that was for a huge ass party in front of over 5000 people.
i havent seen him play a good set since history of breaks.
