DJ Yoni
DJ Erebus: Temple Dub
Dj Erebus got his start back in 2002, shortly after being first introduced to the electronic music scene. Captivated by the pulsing beats and basslines, Vincent discovered a whole new world of music that grabbed onto him and allowed him to discover dance for the first time in his life. Not satisfied with merely being a spectator, Vincent quickly developed his skills as a dj and started playing at small parties and events throughout the city. Over the years, his sound has ranged from trance/hard trance, psy, hardstyle (regretfully), house, breaks and most recently glitch and dubby music. His new sound is a blend of spiritually-themed sounds mixed with world music, glitch and dubby elements. Uultimately his sound cannot be categorized as each set is unique and suited to the event.
Often being able to “see” the music as expressions of colour, the visions in his mind’s eye quickly expanded to full-fledged images and often times full stories than would unravel in his mind as the music played out. This eventually led to his switch from dj to visual artist. Both his art and music have been featured at various Western Canadian music festivals including Inshala, Motion Notion, Astral Harvest and Shambhala.
