Jory Bice—known on stages and sound systems as dj elixir and elx—has been a fixture in the Canadian electronic music landscape for more than two decades. Splitting roots between Toronto, ON and Mission, BC, he continues to bring high-energy, genre-bending performances to clubs, festivals, and airwaves across the country.

Elixir’s journey began in the late ‘90s, quickly earning him residencies and main-stage slots with legendary Toronto promoters including Hullabaloo and Destiny Productions, as well as repeated appearances at the world-renowned World Electronic Music Festival (WEMF). His touring history spans Canada and the U.S., sharing stages with icons such as Paul Oakenfold, Binary Finary, D.A.V.E. The Drummer, Chris Liberator, M-Zone, and many others.

In 2025, elixir was awarded Best Electronic Artist at the Fraser Valley Music Awards, marking a standout milestone in an already storied career.

Under his production alias elx, he has continued to push forward with a prolific run of releases. The full-length 14-track album “Groove Echoes” (Ear to Brain) showcased his range in techno, breaks, progressive, trance, UK bass, and heavy low-end hybrids. He followed this with the “Feed the Pepys” EP on Rapid Fire Records, as well as upcoming features on B-Nasty Records.

Never confined to a single lane, elixir’s sound merges breaks, techno, trance, progressive, electro, UK bass, trap, heavy bass hybrids, drum & bass, and half-time DnB—all delivered with his trademark tight mixing, dynamic builds, and instinctive crowd-driving energy. Whether he’s behind festival decks or crafting late-night studio creations, elixir continues to evolve while staying true to the raw, eclectic, electrifying spirit he’s known for.

THEN AND NOW is a radio show that airs every Wednesday from 3pm until 4pm on CHUO 89.1 FM Ottawa's Independent Radio.

THEN AND NOW looks at music from the past and music that is current. The idea is to reject any notion of a “golden age” in music – there is good music to be had at any given point in time, including right now! With this in mind, comparisons are drawn between what has happened and what is currently happening.
