(2007.08.04) Apex Project 2007 @ Popkum Road
Saturday, August 4th, 2007 www.apexproject.ca  After being touted as Canada’s Premiere party destination by STUFF Magazine, Apex Project returns yet again. This year we have pulled out all the stops. With new talent, and some old, there is a little bit of something for everyone. Bring your friends, bring your tents and bring yourselves. You don’t want to miss out on Canada’s largest outdoor summer event. Spectrum presents Musicology MAT THE ALIEN (UK, WSTLR) - www.myspace.com/matthealien  Your favourite DJs' favourite DJ! Hailing from the UK, this amazingly talented Brit fell in love with Whistler and since relocating there has become one of our provinces most world-renown DJs having played high-profile gigs in Asia, Europe and the U.S. His Shambhala sets are legendary and we expect nothing less from his Apex debut. J-SWING + FLIPOUT - The Beat 94.5 / www.myspace.com/straightgoodsradio  World renown as Vancouver's top hiphop DJ's! Most of us have grown up listening to J-Swing on CITR 101.9 and The Beat 94.5. Everyone from Kanye to De La Soul to A-Trak have publically praised this icon. Hiphops renaissance man Flipout is a DJ, B-Boy and MC and is perhaps the most visible person in the Vancouver Hiphop scene for the past 10 years; and despite evolving, is so true to the art form that Afrika Bambaataa personally reached out to him to give him props last year.

LMFAO... yeah... that was a bit crazy. I've purposely never played on more than 2. I mean, it's cool to play on more than that, but then it gets to the point you can't even enjoy the party and can't listen to other peeps play!!!
