A.SKILLZ, UK – www.fingerlickin.co.uk / www.myspace.com/djaskillz
Big Sexy Funk is the name of the night and we can think of no one better to headline than the maestro of funk himself, A. Skillz. At only 24 years old, his incredible deck talents involve fusing funk, hip-hop and breaks with his unique style of scratching and mixing which is the perfect sound to showcase at Shine’s Big Sexy Funk Saturday’s. His reputation as a true party rocker has won him prime-time slots across the UK at FabricLive, Spectrum, Chew The Fat, Supercharged, The Boutique and Sugarbeat as well as gigs around the world at major events, festivals and music industry parties.
In addition to the hugely successful TrickaTechnology album released in 2003, he’s since released several successful productions remixing the Plump DJ’s, Snoop Dog, Parliament, the Beastie Boys and Mylo to name a few.
2006 is shaping up to be his biggest year yet as he’s currently working on his first mix album for Finger Lickin Records while also planning his next artist album. The last time Twisted brought him was alongside Krafty Kuts but clearly he is more than capable of holding his own and at a venue and alongside a team that is all about the funk!
And holdin it down proper as he always does:
CZECH - http://www.myspace.com/djczech
A Vancouver resident for the thirteen years, Czech has further established powerful draw to the already-thriving local Vancouver club scene. His residencies at Lucy Mae Brown “Rusty Trombone” Sundays and Le club a GO-GO on Thursdays with Vinyl Ritchie (Wicked Lester), coupled with his vast musical knowledge and impeccable turntable skills, have helped to establish Vancouver internationally as one of Canada’s leading cities for up front electronic music.
Importantly, though, these residencies have not interfered with his tight touring schedule. Initially self managed, Czech’s reputation has led to play at prestigious clubs and massive raves throughout Europe and North America every weekend for last 9 years. HeadliningAlongside The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk, Orbital, Crystal Method, Rabbit in the Moon, Porno for Pyros, and countless other Dj’s, has not been uncommon for Czech.
