8 DJs you should know
DJ Oreo
DJ Oreo of Donzelli Management Group

DJ Oreo otherwise known as Kitan Babatunde is signed to Donzelli Music Group and specialises in Afrobeats, Hip Hop, Trap, Bashment and House music. If you were in Lagos this summer,  chances are you went to an event he was on the decks. Oh yeah, if you heard Konko Below out in 57 one night and are still on the search for the legend who did that, it was Oreo! You’ll catch him on decks across London and in Lagos and you can start with Vixen in Birmingham at the end of the month.

DJ Kamsy is one of Canada’s hottest DJs. Word has it that people in Canada make the call to go to rocks based on whether or not he’ll be on the decks. He’s also damn versatile and plays around with pretty much any genre of music you can think of.

Timi is also another pretty interesting trap DJ who draws his inspiration from the late A$AP Yams. Follow him on Soundcloud and he will definitely put you on to good new music! His first ever performance was at The Contract’s Last Dance last Christmas. He also delivered a number of dope sets at last Christmas’ Culture Custodian Nights as well as various events this Summer.

Deejay Ozzy is another one of Canada’s fine products. In the past month, he has put out 3 stellar mixes that show he can do his thing with a range of genres. His mixes are all short so they’re definitely something you should vibe to!
