DJ M-Rock: The Culture Lingers

Since cassettes now lay six feet beneath earth, turntables on the other hand are still spinning, still making clubs go crazy and still pushing music to a whole other level of creativity.

Introducing M-Rock, a Toronto DJ and a producer, with an outstanding resume. He's received cosigns from some of the best producers of our time such as Just Blaze, Alchemist, Pete Rock, Easy Mo Bee, Keith Shocklee, DJ Neil Armstrong (Jay-Z's DJ) and performing in front of the legendary DJ Premier. He's spun records for celebrity clients such as Shaquille O‘ Neal, Drake and fashion designer Marc Ecko.

Miami‘s Winter Music Conference has asked him to host his own panel on his invention ‘Digital Juggling’ which is a style of Jing that fuses turntablism and pianist-style keystrokes on the laptop. 1.83 million viewers heard his opening music on the Juno Awards (the Canadian Grammy’s). After hearing the revolutionary Michael Jackson had passed away, M-Rock immediately re-composed and remixed 8 MJ tracks in the same week, receiving play from DJs in cities like New York, London, Goa, Melbourne, Barcelona, Athens and multiple other locations.

"It took me 3 weeks, probably between 100 – 200 hours to get it right (I’m picky). I really went deep in to give music fans something articulate: scratches, digital juggles, lots of blends, studio edits and tricks. If you play it on an iPod or in iTunes, the tracks are all chapters and there’s a pic for every chapter representing the song. I’d like people to rate this among the best tapes ever, but you guys be the judge, diss it, love it, hate it, whatever, let me know what you think." - M-Rock
