Posted on by swadedavillain

You may have heard of the “Tall Ras“, you may have enjoyed his DJ gigs whether he plays in the club, the street or at your favourite University, but what you know about DJ Ariez? Representing Clarendon, he has been in this DJ game for quite some time. While many may be familiar with his stint as a member of YxB (Youngest x Baddest), he has recently joined the ranks of Chromatic Sound and continues to keep your attention thanks to his collection of Mixtapes and live juggling. We had a chance to holla at the DJ and get his thoughts on his recent signing, thoughts on the Jamaican Entertainment Industry, plans for the future and more.

Words By: SwadeDaVillain x Sef_Jo

13thStreetPromotions: Greetings Ariez, pleasure to hear from you. Catch us up on the momentum you’ve been gaining recently. Fans would love to know about your recent game-changer, bring us into your shoes so we can know what the Chromatic experience is firsthand.

Ariez:  The momentum since the move is a little overwhelming as it is a huge step up in my DJing career. This new opportunity has granted me more work (more Mixtapes, DJ gigs etc.), access to a larger fan base, and more promotion for my brand. I am ever so grateful for all of this.

13thSP: Let’s not kid ourselves, to work with one of Jamaica’s current top selectors is a huge achievement. Did you always figure it would be Chromatic and if this doesn’t get you into too much trouble, were there any other prospects?

@DJBlizzardMusic Carries On Toots Hibbert’s Musical Legacy!

Posted on by swadedavillain

When it comes to Music Production, one of the names that stands out for outstanding contributions is Dwayne Hibbert, popularly known as DJ Blizzard. The young Prodigy is the Grandson of Reggae Veteran and multiple Grammy Award winner Toots Hibbert. He has made the bold move to follow in his Grandfather’s footsteps and cement his own place in the music industry.

He admits that being the Grandson of Toots Hibbert can be pressuring and are huge shoes to fill; but music is the only path for him. “The starting of my music career was inevitable, music is in my blood. I started off on Percussion, I went to the “California World Championship of the Performing Arts” and I represented Jamaica in that regard, the passion later evolved into music production.”

So far the emerging Producer has amassed quite the catalog. He has worked extensively with on the Lifestyle Rich Riddim featuring noted Producer Teetimus and Dancehall Artist Tanto Blacks, he also produced the song “One Link” by Lutan Fyah. In addition he has worked alongside Grillaras for Fambo’s “Get Crunk EP”; he has also worked on numerous occasions with his Grandfather, and the list goes on. “I have worked with Vybz Kartel, Beenie Man, Mr Vegas, Luciano, Toots and The Maytals, and so many more. I am grateful to have gotten the chance to work these people and I know that the list will grow as I continue working.”

Upcoming Projects

The multifaceted producer is currently promoting his latest Riddim, “Bunx Around” which features Kalado, Harry Toddler, and single with himself and Dancehall Artist Kemstsar. Blizzard is working assiduously on some upcoming projects, including an Album with Sizzla Kalonji, and some more work with Beenie Man. He is definitely a name to look out for as he brings fresh sounds to the scene.

Posted on by swadedavillain

DJ Cardo and DJ Ruxie of CD Fantasy have been receiving several requests in Jamaica and the wider Caribbean. The DJs who recently travelled to Saint Martin said they found their trip ‘eye opening’ and ‘encouraging’. DJ Cardo said, “While in Saint Martin I’ve realized the great impact that Jamaican music has on the Caribbean. We are truly a blessed Country.”

Both DJs hail from Kingston, Jamaica and form a part of CD Fantasy lead by Crazy Bling and consisting of DJ Sprat, DJ Kongry and Mario. DJ Cardo and DJ Ruxie are resident DJs for events such as ‘Big Daddy Mondays’ in Tower Hill, ‘Side Chick Tuesdays’ on Pilly Blacks Plaza, Olympic Way and host their own event ‘Magnum Wednesdays’ on Payne Avenue.

With the recent publicity received as a result of the Saint Martin visit, Cardo and Ruxie are now eager to promote themselves to more Caribbean countries. Ruxie said, “Once you start to go outside of Jamaica, you realize just how important it is to be an Ambassador for Dancehall and as street DJs we realize that our task is not just to entertain, but also to educate.” Both Cardo and Ruxie are now on the promotional trail and will be making appearances at several events in Jamaica and soon in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. DJ Cardo can be followed on Instagram at @djcardo_cdfantasy, and DJ Ruxie at @therealdjruxie_cdfantasy.
