DJ Reminisce celebrates 20 Years
On Saturday night, DJ Reminisce, one of the most popular DJs on the Indo dance, fusion and Bhangra scenes, celebrated 20 years in the business at MySala Indian Bistro on Granville. The $200-a-head soirée, hosted by Virsar Media, packed the room with friends, fans and supporters.
No commentsHot Stepping! The Warm-up
Friday night, OPUS Bar hosted a special event, ‘Hot Stepping! The Warm-up’ which was dubbed as the fashionista schmooze, models avec bottles. The highlight of the night was supposed to be K-Os taking the turntables but the opening DJ, Q-Pid stole the show and the hearts of everyone in the room.
With Q-Pid’s charisma, mad DJ skills and a Chinese fighter helmet, he was certainly someone to catch.
As for K-Os? He mostly kept his head down and didn’t give so much as interact or acknowledge anyone in the crowd. To that, we say fuck K-Os.
