DJ Tanner in Prince George Re-Cap

Last Saturday, July 17th, saw DJ Tanner destroying the Generator Cabaret in Prince George. Having never played there before, Tanner was unsure of what to expect but was happy to arrive to a packed house with party people ready to tear it down. Big shouts to DJ AK from Prince George for hosting and playing the night as well. We hope to be back up there again soon.

Stone Love Sound w/ Faction Sound plus Vancity's best July 9th, 2010

Tonight, at the Hungarian Community Hall, history will be made as every big Sound in Vancouver joins the world famous Stone Love for a sell off Dance not to be missed. If you like Dancehall music - make sure to be there. The party starts at 10pm and will most likely go all night so if you already have plans, make sure to stop by afterwards.

When you hear a DJ use the "air horn" sound effect in their set - it traces back to Stone Love - the first crew to ever use the sound. Here's a lil history on Stone Love if you are unfamiliar with the name:

There are over 200 sound systems in Jamaica to date, but when the question is asked as to which is the champion and reigning king of them all, without hesitation the response is ‘Stone Love’. Stone Love made their entry into the dancehall business in 1972 and for the past 28 years it has been the sound systems with he most potent and magnetic force to pull crowds and ‘cork’ any dancehall. The name Stone Love has become an international household name and it is the most sought after sound system today. Record producers, singers and Djs will do anything to hear tunes being played on the set. The dancehall massive will follow the sound to wherever end of the earth it goes to listen to the voices of their favourite entertainment idols.
