Saturday: CHECK DEEZ GRILLZ
It would seem that throughout history all of life’s most urgent questions have been eloquently answered by Female MC’s. It was Lil’ Kim after all who asked “How Many Licks Does it Take Till you Get to the Centre”; an issue that men had been pondering for decades prior. To repay these ladies for enriching our lives and solving our most intimate of inquires, Ponyboy and Winniecooper.net present CHECK DEEZ GRILLZ, Saturday, December 17, at the infamous Astoria. Hosted by man babe Rad Stewart, this event will bring out some of Vancouver’s hottest hip hop DJ’s, including DJ MISS M.
Although she currently resides in Vancouver, DJ MISS M (@djmissm) has travelled around the world opening up for such musical heavyweights as Nelly, Fatman Scoop, and T-pain. And as the only female member of the DRAMA SQUAD CREW, featuring GTL junkie DJ Pauly D, DJ MISS M is proving that females really can do it better.
Here’s a recent interview with MISS M, where she describes her musical roots and gives you a preview of what to expect come Saturday.
How Did you Start Djing?
I bought my first pair of technics 1200′s and $99 stanton mixer on ebay Practiced for 3 months everyday then started looking for gigs.
First record cassette ect you ever bought?
First record i bought was MARY J BLIGE – Reminice & What’s the 411 LP.
Most hilarious moment behind a pair of turntables?
Halloween 3 years ago, I had a group of girls dress up as different Britney Spears’ (Bald Britney, Mom Britney, School Girl Britney, Slave for you Britney, etc). At the end of the night Britney spears fake baby and a snake (from slave from you video) was left spinning on top of the turntables. Fun night!

† Babe Alert †
This Friday at The Waldorf Hotel!
Not only are Craft Spells majorly swoon worthy but they’re totally legit too. It took me about 4 seconds into their song ‘After The Moment’ too fall in love with them. Their sound is so reminiscent of the 80′s post punk/new wave scene. This band is definitely beyond their time.

Also on the bill that night is Mode Moderne. Probably a lot of people’s favorite Vancouver band. If your unfamiliar for some reason, think of Joy Division but more gothy †.
Also up and coming Ville Kulla’s first show! Very Beach House-esque.
To end the night Winnie djs Tristan Orchard & Wobangs will be breaking hearts on the dance floor. See all you babes there. ;)

Chek out this remix Tyler the Creator did for Lykke Li’s I Follow Rivers. The timing is a little off but I think it actually kinda works with the overall effect? Watch the whole thing, trust and turn the lights off?

So were pretty stoked about this event because it’s No More Strangers 1irst party at The Astoria ever! Considering the lineup and NMS reputation this Saturday shouldn’t be anything short of amazing.
Not that they need an intro but GOBBLE GOBBLE who are from san fran are pretty much like listening to a really loud awesome house party.
Oh and check out their tumblr.
Slam Dunk are our neighbors from Victoria. You can dowload their new album The Shivers here! But not for too much longer.
Finally, there’s Dbl Dragon. Vancouver’s very own extremely attractive quintet. This band has just begun to create some buzz but believe you me they will be around for a long time because let’s face it, you just want to dance.
