PROTONIZED WITH ARIZONA
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."
too long. but it should be nice.
