LVL Collective
Consisting of DJ Beer, Steph Tsunami and Loup, LVL Collective is a supergroup devoted to all things drum and bass. With grimey grooves that ebb and flow between all EDM genres, they’ve lit up stages at Bass Coast and Rifflandia with catchy vocal stabs and experimental bass. Their high-energy set is guaranteed to light up Sled’s Drum Beat Entertainment showcase.
Creeasian
Matthew Wood – AKA Creeasian – has made waves as a dancer, DJ, beatmaker, producer and youth educator. This genre-bending work led to him being named Edmonton’s Indigenous Artist in Residence for 2021. Hit Sled’s Drum Beat Entertainment showcase and see why Creeasian’s bassy wobbles and filthy drops are enthralling audiences across the province.
BLKFT
Known for his impeccable track selection and flawless mixing skills, BLKFT is a DJ to be reckoned with. His silky smooth house tracks feel straight out of the ‘90s heydey, and the splashes of Blackfoot influence sprinkled in create a lush melting pot of electro-techno fun. He is also the founder and manager of Drum Beat Entertainment.
DJ Blexxy
Everything you need to know about this DJ is right there in the name — a portmanteau of Black and sexy. Her high-energy presence on the decks has proven irresistibly funky since debuting last year, infusing Jersey club and Brazilian house spins with splashes of African flavour. If you’re in dire need of a dance floor, Blexxy has your back.
