A STORY
:
As a kid, I grew up in Winnipeg listening to CBC Radio late at night (when I was supposed to be sleeping). I listened on my clock-radio under the blankets so my mother couldn’t hear I was still awake. I listened to ‘Brave New Waves’ with Brent Bambury. He introduced me to a world of eclectic sounds I never knew existed... the music kept me awake into the wee-small-hours. One night Brent introduced me to De La Soul. I was blown away by what I heard. It was that very moment I knew what I wanted to do with my life.
:
To make this long story short... I eventually became a radio host at the UofW campus & community station CKUW, and also interned on ‘CBC After Hours’ with Ross Porter (all because of the influence Brent had on me). ‘Brave New Waves’ eventually morphed into ‘The Signal’.... and while all this was happening I was also touring & recording as a hip-hop artist (Mood Ruff, Grand Analog) being compared to the likes of De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest.
:
Just a couple years ago I recorded a song with my idol Posdnuos (of De La Soul). It’s called ‘Mutations’ and you should listen to it. That recording took place the same time I was hired as the host of the night time slot on CBC Radio... The Signal morphed into Afterdark

Just yesterday I told Brent Bambury about the impact he had on my life

I hope the Rabbit (I’ve named them Roger) is safe out there in them streets… they visit me often.
