It was the fall of 2000 and yours truly was booked to DJ at this 3 stage outdoor rave (that's what they were calling 'em back then) at the Windsor, NS Fairgrounds. DJ Sneak was to headline while Tiga, XL, Mika and Rob Brown were all down from Montreal as support. Or so I thought.On the afternoon of the big day, the local (and only) underground record store in Halifax gets a call from someone claiming to be DJ Sneak. Aparently he had NOT been booked for the event and was understandably pissed. Turns out the promoter was scammed (or was busted in a scam) and it begins to look like the entire party might indeed be a lie. This news sweeps though the entire Provence in a matter of hours (yes we did have internet at that time) leaving the entire east coast dance community in a state of "WFT?".
I showed up that evening around midnight expecting the worst but was pleasantly surprised to discover a pretty good party going on. So I found my stage and quickly started drinking, er I mean playing. Towards the end of my set, as I'm laying down "the thunder", this douche taps me on the shoulder and says its his turn. I consult my watch (yup, we were still wearing them back then) and see that I have another 40 mins left to play. Smiling, I turn and politely ask him "to fuck right off and wait your turn". He shrugs his shoulders and sits down.As I finish my set and take my ovations, we shake hands and I lean in asking, "whats your name anyway?". He smiles and says "Tiga". So long story short, to this day I have never played in Montreal. Any who here is his newest creation and in my opinion, ipso facto your opinion, Beni serves up the tastiest mix...Shoes (Beni Remix)
