**ABOUT FLIPSIDE **
Electronic Dance Music has reached a new frontier, with Flipside at the helm. One part legend, one part visionary, Flipside is an electronic music pioneer whose experience constantly propels the genre forward, pushing boundaries and pleasing audiences.
A DJ, music producer, songwriter, vocalist and performer, Flipside is as talented as he is diverse. His myriad of musical abilities has earned him the reputation as Canada’s Most Versatile electronic music artist, drawing music heavyweights to his studio and rocking out shows worldwide.
A trailblazer in his hometown of Toronto, Canada, Flipside was a key player in galvanizing its underground music scene. He continues to attract droves of fans, performing regularly at the cities top events, and key venues like Nest, The Den, and the legendary Comfort Zone. Flipside continues to tour the globe, playing shows across North America, Europe, South America, Asia and Australia.
In the last 10 years alone, Flipside has had over 50 chart-topping tracks onBeatport, iTunes, Track it Down and Stompy. This includes consecutive No. 1 tracks in multiple genres; including House, Techno, Progressive, Electro, Tech House and Breaks.
Sought out and supported by some of the industry’s biggest names: Deadmau5, Armand Van Helden, Bob Sinclair, Roger Sanchez, WolfgangGartner, Bart B More, Krafty Kuts, Simon Doty, Kaskade, Axwell and Paul VanDyk, he has maintained a consistent flow of successful charting material clearly cementing his spot as one of the most memorable and reliable artists in electronic dance music today.
Alongside Deadmau5, MC Flipside performed his track “Hi Friend” at the prestigious Juno Awards in 2012, Canada’s equivalent to the Grammys. Two-time Juno nominee for his work on M1’s Robopop album (2005) and Get Blahsted (2009) with Hatiras.
Personable, charming, witty and charismatic with an uncanny ability to write melodies, chords, on-the-spot lyrics and freestyle poetry, music producers marvel at his seemingly endless supply of ideas and positive energy, truly making him unique and his own, very marketable, brand.
He attributes this to his passion for the music, love of making audiences happy and remaining true to his heart— which, at the core, is house music. Never one to follow trends, his range of influences may surprise you: Michael Jackson, George Michael, Stevie Wonder, Green Velvet and Louie Vega. Why? In Flipside’s words, none of them can be duplicated, which is the sign of a real artist.
If that’s the case, then Flipside is the definition of a true entertainer.
