This is one Kootenay boy who knows how to party. He
spins Hard house, NU-NRG, Breaks, and Trance. Remeddie aka
Eddie Mckimme has only been DJ'ing a little over a year, but
when you hear him on stage you wouldn't believe that. He is
the co-founder of Straightline Productions, which throws parties
in the Kootenays. It is quite obvious that he loves being
a DJ. Whether he is on stage or on the dancefloor, Remeddie
totally cuts it up. Its only a matter of time before he makes
it big.
INTERVIEW by Graham Robinson
So why did you get into DJing in the first place?
Well, Ive been in the rave scene about
2 years, and it just looked like something fun to do. And
... Eric (DJ Cinto) and Dan (DJ Bassment), they inspired me
pretty much, and have been my influences.
[Hear his response]
What has been your biggest gig so far?
Probably a party called Deep Freeze
in January. Really big crowd; lots of people there. Good
vibe? Very good, ya!
[Hear his response]
So what is your favorite track that you spin?
I do have one track called Castles in
the Sky, and all the ladies love it!
[Hear his response]
We talked about your upcoming parties, but do you have any
other future plans coming up?
I just want to spin for as long as I
can, probably the rest of my life. Just cause it's such a
fun thing to do and once you get it, you got it for life.
Workin the crowd is a good thing to do.
[Hear his response]
What DJs inspired you the most?
Id have to say Cinto and Bassment, just
cause they are my age and I have grown up with them the past
2 years. And there really good freinds to me. I'd probly have
to say DJ Micro, he plays the kinda stuff I like to hear.
[Hear his response]
So what do you think about the rave scene these days?
There are alot of people getting into
it that just do it for the drugs actually. And thats not the
right thing to do.
[Hear his response]
What does it mean to you then?
It
means getting out and dancing all night, having fun with friends.
Fooling around you know, just goin off.
Any other thing you want to say?
Id
just like to say that this party we're at tonight is going
to be very fun, and I played a really good set tonight! That's
all I want to say!
