It is a great pleasure to present the Fort Knox Five DJ set from the Cantina Stage at Bass Coast 2019. This was one of my favorite sets from last summer and is such a quintessential FK5 mix, incorporating elements of Funk, Glitch Hop, Disco, Breaks, House and Hip-Hop. Fort Knox Five have been a part of the Bass Coast family from the very beginning, and this is the first time we have ever released a set. This is a long time in the making and I could not be more stoked. This set really represents the music that I like to make, listen to and especially dance to. For all of you that were tearing up the dance floor at the Cantina I hope this mix gives you some good flashbacks, and to those who weren't there, this mix is sure to get your booty shaking. Thank you especially Andrea, Liz and Anna for ending up at my set at the same time and giving me all the love!
Steve, Fort Knox Five

You know when you load up a bunch of fresh heat into a playlist, and just let the music move you through the set?  This is that. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.  Happy New Year my friends!

A quick mix of my favourite BW tunes.  Soulful and timeless music.

"Withers' songs have become the soundtracks of countless engagements, weddings and backyard parties. They have powerful melodies and perfect grooves melded with a smooth voice that conveys honesty and complex emotions without vocal acrobatics."

Rest in peace.

Freestylers - Minirig Mixtape

David Anthony -- hailing from Whistler, BC I bring with me several decades of experience in the industry.  Starting in the early 90’s, playing progressive house and techno, I was one of the first people involved in developing an underground warehouse party scene in this vibrant mountain community.  Returning now with a funky, deep house, soulful style, I play music that gets the dance floor moving.  Playing with the likes of Lonely Boy, Funk Hunters, Skiitour, Ginacat, Surgeon, Patrick Kelly, Clinical Trials, Fort Knox Five, Andy Clockwork and many more, I bring a fresh blend of energy, artistry and skills on the decks to every mix and event.
