2004 offered up a busy year for Ryan G. Taking the oppertunity to spread his wings musically and dig deeper into his passion has led him to a series of offers for global travel pushing the music he loves. Representing Canada has always been a dream of Ryans, and having it realized makes the years of dedication all worth while. While maintaining his current representation of house music in a wide spectrum, Ryan is never shy to nod to his roots, Garage. Having opened for and played alongside the world most respected DJs, humility remains a large part of Ryan's self image - with respect often given to the producers of the music of day and less to the DJs.

This November/December also saw the release of Ryan G's first proper Mix CD (non promo) "Jackhammer" which was recorded live on June 13th, 2004 while performing as a headliner for 1300 people at Winnipeg's Pride festival. 100% of the proceeds of this Mix is being donated to Nine Circles Community Health Centre - and Ryan is thrilled that he has been given the chance to put his talents into play to help others. So get out there and peek around for the CD - a blend of funky, roof shaking house and tech house.

One of the founders of The Groove Factory (celebrating it's 11th anniversary this year), Shawn was also instrumental in many of Winnipeg's early "warehouse parties", namely the legendary "Panic" parties at 123 Princess.

OXIDE Oxide originates from Portage La Prairie and now resides in the funkier side of the Peg. After growing up in a military family he needed to break free and spread his love for house music by going on tour with the car crunching monster trucks of the motor sport world. Bigfoot was his favorite, but after years of sleeping in dingy hotels and eating breakfast in nudy bars he came to the realization that it wasn't as glorious as he thought it would be. Back to the Peg! Most of his time is now spent collecting chopsticks from Sushi restaurants, searching for the "Log Driver Song" on vinyl and producing his home grown derty house music. You can catch Oxide's blend of soul moving funky techouse on sHIFT Radio Friday's on 101.5 with Andre Bisseck. www.urbnet.com/djoxide
	DISCO KITTY In spring of 1999, DiscoKitty first got into electronic music by going to Winnipeg clubs and parties where DJ's were the focus. This whole new world of music was very intriguing and exciting to her. At the time, this girl had no idea what the DJ's did up there on the decks, but all she knew was that it sounded fantastic. At the time, djing wasn't something that DiscoKitty wanted to take very far. It was all about having fun and experimenting. She continued buying records and pursued the house/tech-house sound. It wasn't until summer of 2002, that DiscoKitty decided to take her love of records out and share her mixing with the public. She landed her first gig playing alongside fellow-female DJ Audio Angel and radio co-host on Alter Ego, 101.5 Saturdays 3-4pm.
