Colin Chu, better known as Big League Chu, is one the leading DJ talents in Canada's breakbeat scene today. After over a decade of DJing, his name is synonymous with the funky, party-happy sound that's become Chu's rallying call - and it's one that crowds have answered faithfully throughout Canada. Whether it's at his residencies at Toronto's legendary Breakfest events, the Make It Funky Jams, or the large one-off shows that Toronto boasts. In a city renowned as one of North America's largest party scenes, Chu has played alongside the worlds finest, allowing him to develop his own distinct style of Breaks. Chu's sets can vary from hard beats to melodic funky down tempo sounds, but always remains a crowd mover. The born and raised Torontonian began spinning in London, Ontario while taking his undergraduate degree in psychology and sociology at The University of Western Ontario. Chu quickly garnered attention at local parties, leading to gigs in Toronto, including the Dose event in the summer of 1999 when he was asked to fill in for Barry Weaver for his second appearance in the city. He so impressed organizers that Chu was then asked to play the 14,000 plus crowd at the annual Dose Freakin Halloween event later that year, and as since become a mainstay for Toronto's largest party companies, like Metro Productions (Kickit and Out of Hand), Lifeforce Industries (Dose, Syrous and Renegades), Empire, and Liquid Adrenaline.

As of late Big League Chu has found himself working on tracks again in the studio so keep your ears to the ground on upcoming new beats. Chu continues to tour across Canada on a regular basis and has recently began travelling to Asia were he expects he will make his second tour this fall/winter.

Can't believe I'm gonna say this... but this is the first time we've ever pre-sold more than 10 tickets for a $10 show.

Hopefully this is a sign of things to come! Show your Chu support! ;-)

Got some messages on this via Facebook and figured I should post some clarification...

We won't be printing physical tickets for this show. $10 advance tickets are available via Clubzone only (Twisted, Promotions, Vancouver) other wise it will be $15 at the door night of.

Cheers.

so just go up to the door and show ID and they let you (and the second ticketholder in my case) in?

Kraig · #16 (**permalink**) May 13, 08

^^ Yep. How will call works is you need to present a valid piece of picture ID (drivers license) along with the credit card that you used to purchase your tickets. Once that's done, they have you sign on the dotted line and in you go along with your guests depending on the number of total tickets you purchased!

Super easy and 99.9% accurate! -- The .01% would be human error.
