BITCHSLAP!
Never Mind the Mainstream at Footwork, Friday, Sept. 14th.
TORONTO -- Friday, September 14th, join the Bitchslap! family at Footwork for the 9th installment in the special event series, featuring Bitchslap! resident DJs Sydney Blu and TK, plus special guest Peter Presta!
Brooklyn born producer / DJ, Peter Presta has produced tracks for many major & independent labels around the globe. Including Heather Small's popular dance single, "Proud." That record skyrocketed to the top of the dance charts after being featured on the final episode of "Queer As Folk". Presta also founded Apple Jaxx Recordings, based out of the United Kingdom. Although producing & remixing primarily in the UK, Presta has won over audiences worldwide with his skill as a DJ. He enjoys a wide variety of club music, but would best classify his DJ sound as very progressive, heavy on the tracks with a bit of booming vocals. [www.peterpresta.com]
Sydney Blu is Canada's foremost female DJ and a co-creator of Bitchslap!. She performs regularly all over North America and Mexico. With production partner Fabio Palermo, she has remixed for numerous labels including Hibias Records, PBR Recordings, Robeter Productions, COF Music, and Rawthentic Music to name a few. She has also collaborated on signature bootleg remixes and a number of original tracks (also co-written by Toronto vocalist Mandy J and lined up for international release). In 2007 she will release her highly anticipated full length artist album on Hibias Records, with a North American tour to follow. [www.sydneyblu.com]
DJTK, a long-time favourite of Toronto's gay community (both Fab Magazine and Xtra Magazine’s readership voted her their favourite local DJ in 2005), has become a fixture in the city’s after-hours scene, with residencies at Footwork and The Comfort Zone. An accomplished film music producer, 2006 saw TK producing original music for documentary films: "The Metroscope" (a project of the National Film Board), and the animated feature, “MySelf, My Message." As well, she began turning her attention towards EDM (electronic dance music) production. With countless shady remixes and original beats being turned out to clubbers' delight, TK looks forward to something official coming along soon. [www.djtk.net]
