Stickypod Connection Fractal Forest/Shambhala/Higher Ground MySpace.com - stickypod connection - CA - Funk / Breakbeat / Hip Hop - www.myspace.com/stickypodconnection 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.
