Jun 13, 2013 News
East Van Digital presents our 14th single, DJ Thistle‘s “When I Blast” featuring MC Jon Hype.
DJ Thistle is legendary in the BC interior for having helped to shape the Okanagan electronic scene in it’s early days, as well as being renowned for his drum and bass dj sets. This latest production sees him giving trap music a proper treatment with Jon Hype lyrically on point.
Perth’s own Bezwun delivers us a wicked fastball with his remix, a drum and bass smasher that will light up dance floors, while DJ Thistle revisits his roots, remixing his own tune with old school jungle vibes. Finally, Joseph Martin untraps the original with a deep and dubby house remix to put a soothing cap on this release.

EVDEP013 – Vinyl Fixx – Mentality EP
Feb 28, 2013 News
Original artwork by Jai Field.
East Van Digital presents our 13th artist EP, Vinyl Fixx “Mentality EP”.
Hailing from Calgary, Alberta, this dj & producer creates straight up, old school influenced drum & bass…the dirty stuff, with well crafted rhythms and pure filth synth lines.
No warning shots here, the title track Mentality goes straight for the jugular, innocently luring you in with a beautiful piano melody before amping up into a menacing monster. Grade A Hustla fires up using detuned guitar riffs alongside sampled hip hop vocals before kicking into frenetic bass stabs. Keeping up the pace, Bone Crushin’ is a nightmare inducing soundtrack that will stomp floors to dust. The final track, Cold Blooded, delivers the pressure, with thick atmosphere and plenty of spine tingling sub bass.
