  • PROTONIZED

    Monday, May 30th at 3 PM EST (Noon PST) Proton Radio presents PROTONIZED, a very special 100 minute mix from ariz0na.
    For the last seven years, Davin Greenwell, better known as DJ ariz0na and producer AFK, has been pushing the progressive sound in the form of breaks, house and trance. Davin has been heavily involved in the Victoria electronic music scene through many years of community and commercial radio, club and events promotion, ravevictoria.com, and now most prominently with Pacific Front Recordings (PFR), a new music label he trailblazes in cahoots with Justin Humber, aka Sasha-spun Formulate. Recording as AFK has seen Davin release two gigantic progressive tracks on his home label, PFR, and has produced a haunting breakbeat remix of Obakeh’s “Ghosted” and a synapse-smashing remix of arguably Formulate’s most memorable track, “Rising Edge.” Davin has been remixed by the likes of Steve May, Blake Jarrell, Jeff Devas, Influenza, Micah, Formulate, and Chompers. His music has extended globally and can be heard in forward-thinking clubs all over the world. Toss in a Saturday night residency at Victoria’s outstandingly fun Lush at Hush with fellow prog mobster Braeden Parrott, mix in appearances at Lotus in Vancouver, and you have a talent echoing throughout the scene in the Pacific Northwest.
    Davin has had a hand in the production of every track in PROTONIZED — from being remixed, to collaborations, to doing the remixes himself — including a very special never-heard-before ambient mix of Obakeh’s “Ghosted.”

  • the path to destruction!

    the path to destruction
    i think 2005 is the year of technical server [bleep] not working right. did the ancients think of that? “2005 will be the year all the crap we invented in the last 10 years becomes incredibly unreliable but we discover that we don’t really care that much anyway.” for online stores, it’s like the equivalent of their storefront randomly disappearing only to reappear later like nothing happened. “what?” yeah.
    anyhow, i wrote a new DJ bio with jim tonight. watch! i am linking to myself! link link link!
    i must go. anand is here!

  • ten mile point

    i went exploring the other night at ten mile point and found the craziest phospheressence .. unfortunately it was impossible to capture with a photograph — even though my camera was cranked to 400 ISO (hence the grain) on F2.0 at various time exposures up to 15 seconds. limitation of the camera, i am sure these things can be photographed…
