DJ KARIZMA, born in Blackburn, Lancashire, but grew up in Southern England in a town called Ampthill in Bedfordshire. He started mixing Hardcore around 95' and around 96' got into Jungle/Drum and Bass.

 

In 98' he and his family emigrated to Calgary, Canada. It didn't take long to meet the right people in the scene for him to take his DJing to the next level. In early 99' he met fellow Junglists' Cheeba Cheeba Kid and DJ Photo who ran a Friday night Jungle/Drum & Bass radio show on CJSW Redeye 90.9FM a local radio station in Calgary, he was invited to be a regular host and Photo and Karizma did the show for almost five years and built up quite the following in the process.

 

Since emigrating to Canada, KARIZMA has played at many many raves, illegal raves, clubs and outdoor festivals in every major province from coast to coast. He was  instrumental in building and contributing to the Calgary Jungle/D&B scene and his influence still lives on today.

 

Being a member of the armed forces seeing KARIZMA play these days is somewhat of a rariety. It doesn't stop him from releasing high octane D&B mixes though, his mix CD series 'SPREAD OUT AND SKATTAH' is highly popular around the globe and is a must have for any D&B music fan.

 

Over the years KARIZMA has had the honour to play alongside the following Djs...

 

Slipmatt, Brisk, Ham, Sy, Unknown, Vinylgroover, Zinc, Aphrodite, Mickey Finn, DJ Rap, Shy FX, Adam F, DJ Loxy, Diesel Boy, Marcus Visionary, JuJu, Black Sun Empire, DJ Zen, Hive, Mark E.G., M Zone, Mr.C (The Shamen), Frankie Bones, Rachael Auburn, R.R Fierce (R.I.P.) John Acquaviva, BrainBashers, Uberzone, Krafty Kuts, Infected Mushroom, Mat the Alien, Freq Nasty, Eskimo, Malente, Mac Zimms, Roland the ****, Chris Liberator and Mc's..Hurley, Renegade (R.I.P.) Sharkey, Storm, Charlie B, Flux, K Nyne, Fearless, Biggie and a host of acts from around the world and from numerous musical genres.

It was in the late 90's when Colin first heard the sound that his soul was seeking. It was the fast, syncopated drums and heavy bass lines that was Jungle/Drum and Bass. Ever since then he was hooked.

Colin began experimenting with music production in the mid 90's and has worked on projects within several genres since then, but has always come back to Jungle and Drum and Bass.

The Lotus Queen first became inspired to DJ after listening to the legendary Friday Night shows on CJSW such as The Musiquarium, The Red Eye and Radiant ST8. Sensitive to music from an early age, after attending her first rave in 1996 she felt the unique energy that flowed between DJ and dancers. Although she enjoyed Trip Hop, house, hip hop, industrial, drum n bass became the best fit.
Lotus played her first gig in 1998 in the basement of what was then called Java Sharks (now Sal's on 17th) and was one of the first female drum n bass DJs in Calgary. Since then she has shared the bill with some great talent such as: DJ Rap, Tommy Illfingas, Ill-esha, DJ Tron and Blu Mar Ten and over a decade's worth of talented fellow Calgary DJs.
Her sets feature many styles of drum n bass especially sexy, soulful and energetic liquid. Ragga and some jump up make an appearance as well as non-shitty dubstep.
Lotus Queen rinses proper every friday night, on Remote Emissions, Calgary's longest running drum n' bass radio show (est. 1997). Rowdy dj mix sessions w/special guests, to introspective unplanned journeys, your soundtrack to your Friday night is taken care of:

RCola's rub-a-dub-wize Drum 'n Bass takes its inspiration from reggae & dub, which continue to influence his uplifting production style.  https://rcola.bandcamp.com
&#13;
RCola co-founded the Chopstick Dubplate record label with Liondub and Jacky Murda in 2002. In 2004, he started the JungleXpeditions music group and his Royal Crown label, which has featured songs from legendary reggae singers Sister Nancy and Barrington Levy. &#13;
&#13;
In 2010, KMag named RCola one of the top ten ragga-jungle artists in the world. There's no doubt this was fueled by his continued efforts to keep jungle music up front and center over the last ten years. &#13;
&#13;
RCola has played 300+ shows in 20 countries, and released 25 tunes on 12" vinyl, and more music digitally via online shops.
