Dirty Leroy Brown ( Aka Leevon Dance, Dj Dance) started out his music career many years ago. When he was just a young teenager he used to sneak into his friends older brother's room and mess around on his old set of technique tables.  Back then it was making hip hop mix tapes recorded on cassette. Yes on cassette!  He always had a love for finding and playing the newest in hip hop and eventually got into the electronic music scene with djs like dieselboy, dj dean, and a wide variety of others. Eventually after high school he managed to buy his first pair of tables for him self.  After taking a few lessons from some big dj's in Calgary scene such as John Delerious and Trevor Galore,  soon just mixing records in his house wasn't good enough.  He wanted to get himself out to the people and heard.  He started throwing his own partys which included shows such as SUMMER NIGHTS ( a Canada day party), and a Jaggermiester sponsored halloween party. Both were a great success.  

Since 2010 Leevon's style has transformed into a sound of heavy breakbeats, dnb, ghetto funk, and 110 bangers all infused with classic hop hop sounds that originated in his routes. With residencys at Sals on 17th, Vicous circle, and a small stint at Opus, Leevon is now working even harder to master his craft. He also ran his own night once a week at Paddy o Learys for a year playing everything and anything under the sun. If you have ever been to one of his shows then you know that his set's are high energy mixing bass music, classic hip hop, and the newest in electronic.  If all you can remember from the night before is dancing you're butt off then you were probably listening to him smash the decks.  

Now in 2012 Leevon has had the chance to open for acts such as Ben samples, Keith Mckenzie and the great Canadian hip hop group the Rascals.  As recently being signed to Big Star Entertainment, Leevon is taking music even more serious then before.  Upgrading his skills he has begun to take it even farther back to his routes in hip hop and has begun his lesson's in turntablism. Cutting scratching and beat juggling are becoming more and more integrated into his signature sound so you can expect his live shows to be even more energetic then before!

As 2013 approaches expect Leevon to become even more of a player in the Calgary electronic and hip hop scene as he works hard to always be elevating his game to the next level.
