Faction Sound Crew 10 Year Anniversary Mix CD ft Iron Lyon, Arems & Tanner

10 years of Faction Sound Crew has been pretty ill. Back in 2001, DJs Arems, Tanner and Akshun broke off from a wider collective they had been djing with and formed the Faction Sound Crew. Ever since then, things have been getting bigger and better. From touring the world to doing multiple residencies in Vancouver, Whistler and now New York and Miami... the Faction has been locking things down - but there's far more to come. The addition of our MC, Matt the Trigga, back in 2006 brought a new edge to the crew's group performances and in 2009 another crew member was added - New York's Iron Lyon, for even more fire power.

We all grew up and started djing with RAP music, therefore, it's only fitting that Iron Lyon sets off the Faction's 10 Year Anniversary Mix CD with a throw back to the golden era, laced with a few faction Rap Dubplates, and even a track from Iron Lyon himself.

Arems comes with the all Dubplate section consisting of mainly dancehall dubs remixed over current and golden era hip hop beats. More RAP dubplates can be found in his section which show cases a lot of his favourite artists from the past and present.

Tanner shuts shit down with a Moombahton finale that will have any fan of music in general nodding their head to the pounding beats and smoothed out remixes of familiar songs now transformed into the new Moombahton genre.

If you haven't gotten a copy of this CD from us jus make sure to ask us for one. Here is the one track download link for your listening pleasure. Please spread the link around and share it as much as you can. Thanks so much for all your support over the past decade.

DJ Tanner Retuns for RAP at Calabash w/ Rhek & Arems - Friday Dec 16 2011 PLUS REDBULL FINALS DAY 4 w/ The Faction

Two DOPE events go down this Friday December 16th starting with Day 4 of the Redbull Thee Style Finals at Club 560. 5 of the 18 World Finalists will be battling it out to make it to Saturday night for the Final Finale. The real highlight of the Day 4 is PETE ROCK vs DJ Premier with DJ Dopey and the Faction Sound Crew!!! DJ Tanner has returned from NYC especially for this event and we will be dropping some exclusive shit! I could go on and on about this but the reality is - it sold out so if you don't have a ticket - I feel sorry for you.

BUT, you can still come RAP! at Calabash (428 Carrall Street in Gastown) where we'll be heading as soon as finish our set inside 560 to play Golden Era Hip Hop and the best RAP around. Always an ill party and always PAKD!!! I'd say hit me for guest list but it's only 6 bux at the door so gather your twoonies instead and meet us there!

DJ Arems - East Coast Tour Recap and Photos (Toronto to NYC)

On November 3rd I headed East to do 5 nights in Toronto and New York. The tour was ill and I got to dj at a lot of nice spots with a lot of dope DJs! Toronto saw me play Sake and Soul at Dazzling and Heart of the City at Woo Lounge. Big shout outs to BIG Jacks, DJ J-Class and Kariz for throwing pakd douche-bag-free parties in a City where it's hard to get away from the fist pumpers. After that I headed South to NYC to link up with DJ Tanner and do a trio of dancehall nights in the Big Apple.

Monday Night was INSANE at Tammany Hall for Rice and Peas with DJs Gravy, Max Glazer, Micro Don, Maya and Skerrit Bwoy among others. The house was packed with dancers and the vibe was crazy all night. Stay tuned for Video of what happened around 3am when Skerrit Bwoy got on the mic.

Tuesday night saw the Faction at Riddim N Vibes inside No Malice Palace with DJ Autograph, Golden and Rampage Sound Global for a night of strictly dancehall and BERE VIBES. On Wednesday I was lucky enough to do a guest spot on East Village Radio with Max Glazer and Autograph for the Federation Invasion. I did a half hour dubplate set (by request) and the audio from that show will be posted shortly

Thursday found me inside and completely rammed Happy Ending for Brand New Machine with Max Glazer and Autograph. The club used to be a massage parlor and still has the remnants of Steam Rooms and Shower Heads everywhere. Super ill club and a really dope Party. Many thanks to all of the DJs I played along side with. You can peep all the photos from the tour by CLICKING HERE.

Faction Sound Crew X Red Bull Thre3style 2011 World Finals

Since its inception in 2007 the Red Bull Thre3style has consistently gained momentum every year until it became the juggernaut it is today. Strictly a Canadian affair until 2010; the contest went international and became the benchmark for world dj competitions. 2011 has seen this phenomenon snowball into the biggest week in world dj competition, and Vancouver dj culture's respective history. Faction Sound Crew has been a proud part of this competition the last three years and are excited to share this week with so many great talents. Below are the links to Dj Arems's 2011 3rd place Vancouver set and Dj Tanner's 2010 2nd place set. See you on the dance floor.

What's My Name - Dj Tanner remix

Sitting with Iron Lyon at the XIX wednesday party he purposed that the ace of bass intrumental of "All that she wants" would have been dope if it came out today.

Also I am playing at XIX November 2nd so please if your in the NYC area holler and come support. More info on later this week right here.
