THE LOCALS: DJ Susbstance - The D Mixtape


There's a lot of solid DJ's NZ's got spinning wax & DJ Substance is one of them, specialising in Hip Hop.  I knew this guy was good, but until I went onto his site, it's obvious he's up there. I'm not going to say all the gigs he's done, you can check his slideshow after the drop (it's fuckin crazy) but one thing i'll tell you, is that Substance was the firt NZ DJ to attend a Red Bull Academy; Respect bro, big ups! that's a dream to go to one of them!

He's apart of the Home Brew & Team Dynamite Crew (Audio Engineer), so he knows what's good & no doubt he does some mixing for them and lets them use what he's got to make dope fresh Hip Hop. Haven't really studied him as a DJ but I'm sure he's been the one on the decks when I'm dancing non stop at Zen, Rakinos and other local venues.  I think you'll see him on a Bill every week.

Substance also has his own radio show on George FM called "Urbanology" and if you want to keep in the loop of the solid Hip Hop travelling around, then this is the Hour of Power for you Hip Hop Heads. Bringing you exclusives each week & supporting that local good/hood shit!

So if you want a solid Hip Hop DJ, Substance is the man (I think he's even got Sean Kingston, Hurricane Chris, Young Jeezy & other up there artists) & to cop a sample of his work, download his D Mixtape & yes it's FREE. Catch him this weekend at the J Dilla Tribute gig @ Zen, $15, Saturday! Gonna be dope.


"Urbanology" Radio Show - Wednesdays @ 10pm on George FM
