Abasi
A little about Abasi:
Having discovered and fallen in love with electronic music in 1991, Abasi started collecting and making mixed electronica tapes soon after. A few years and a few hundred gigs later, his record collection has grown beyond control which includes a healthy mix of all genres of music. Abasi owns/spins many different styles, but he currently specializes in house(deep,bass,garage), techno/minimal, electro*, dance-rock, italo/nu disco, disco/funk and mash-up/eclectic.
In addition, Abasi co-created the Intimate Productions crew who rolled up their sleeves back in 2000 and have organized many legendary parties and club nights around town since then. The current list includes Deep End Fridays, Spotted Saturdays and the Legendary Long Weekend series. He has played locally at almost all Vancouver clubs as well as in the UK, US and China, and festivals around BC. His past residencies include SiGNAL, Cheeky, Luscious, Laser Dance, Shaken Not Stirred and Big Trouble. Abasi has also done a few collaborations including the “Team Trainwreck” mash-up trio along with Dr. Jones and Glyn, the “DelayNoMore” DJ duo with Ceebas, and the production duo “Villi Manilli” with Glyn.
The list of international artists which he has had the honour to play with include Richie Hawtin, Moby, Kevin Saunderson, Stacey Pullen, Miss Kittin & The Hacker, Booka Shade, Claude VonStroke, Justin Martin, Dennis Ferrer, Alan Braxe, Lifelike, Soul Clap, MANIK, Detroit Grand Pubahs, Matthew Dear/Audion, Akufen, Swayzak, DJ T, Jesse Rose, Hardfloor, Derek Carter, Marshall Jefferson, Llorca, Dirt Crew, Gigamesh, Paco Osuna, Tom Middleton, Chopstick, Fischerspooner, Poolside, Classix, Guns’n’Bombs, LA Riots and Adam Freeland among numerous others. He has also had the pleasure to rock out alongside majority of the amazing local Vancouver party DJs. Catch him when you can and you’ll be in for an aural treat 🙂
