DJ MANA (two time Montreal DMC champion)

Mana is notorious for his skill in scratching (the art of creating rhythmic sound by moving a vinyl record back and forth). However, his skill in DJing goes beyond just scratching and hip-hop. His body of work includes long DJ sets in many genres, battle-style DJ sets, sound engineering, DJ tutoring, and music production.

Mana always had a passion for music since he was a child. From 1993-1997, his older brother DJ Flee and friend Rob Brown inspired him to practice mixing house and breakbeat music. In spring of 1997, DJ Sevin showed him videos of DJ QBert, A-Trak, D-Styles, Beat Junkies, X-Men, Mixmaster Mike, and the many legends of turntablism. This pushed Mana to dedicate himself to a regimen of 4 hours a day of highly organized turntable practice.

The DJ battle scene brought Mana into the spotlight. His first DJ Battle was the Montreal ITF Elimination in 1999. DJ Matrix beat him in the first round at this battle. However, from this experience, Mana practiced even harder. Since then Mana went on to win many titles and, more importantly, respect from other great DJs and turntablists. He won ITF Montreal in 2000, KoolMixx Hawaii in 2002, Import Revolution Hawaii in 2002, and DMC Montreal in 2003/ 2004. Also, he performed alongside the likes of DJ Q-Bert, Mixmaster Mix, I-Emerge, Funky Teknicians, and X-Ecutioners. He joined Nocturnal Sound Krew (Hawaii) in 2000 and Island City Monsters (Montreal) in 2002.

Although battling was a highlight in his career, Mana chose to focus on self expression rather than competition. He explores the human soul through music production; scratch composition; playing various styles in his DJ sets; and helping others attain self-expression through DJing. Mana founded Soul Mechanics DJ School in 2004 to fulfill these goals. He currently runs the DJ school out of the heart of downtown Montreal.
