Colin Chu, better known as Big League Chu, is simply the leading DJ talent in Canada's breakbeat scene today. After over a decade of DJing, his name is synonymous with the funky, party-happy sound that's become Chu's rallying call - and it's one that crowds answer faithfully. Whether it's at his residencies at Toronto's legendary Breakfest events, the Make It Funky Jams, or the large one-off shows that Toronto boasts. In a city renowned as one of North America's largest party scenes, Chu has played alongside the worlds finest, allowing him to develop his own distinct style of breaks. Chu's sets can vary from hard beats to melodic funky down tempo sounds, but always remains a crowd mover. The born and raised Torontonian began spinning in London, Ontario while taking his undergraduate degree in psychology and sociology at The University of Western Ontario. Chu quickly garnered attention at local parties, leading to gigs in Toronto, including the Dose event in the summer of 1999 when he was asked to fill in for Barry Weaver for his second appearance in the city. He so impressed organizers that Chu was then asked to play the 14,000 plus crowd at the annual Dose Freakin Halloween event later that year, and as since become a mainstay for Toronto's largest party companies, like Metro Productions (Kickit and Out of Hand), Lifeforce Industries (Dose, Syrous and Renegades), Empire, and Liquid Adrenaline.
As of late Big League Chu has found himself working on tracks again in the studio so keep your ears to the ground on upcoming new beats. Chu continues to tour across Canada on a regular basis and has recently began travelling to Asia were he expects he will make his second tour this fall/winter.
Here we have the return of Digital Base to iBreaks.
This release has been played for quite a while receiving some amazing feedback from every artist who’s been supplied with the track.
The Climax, great summery track with the characteristic Digital Base vibe, full of intensity and melody. This track could easily fit from any dj playing in Ibiza to any breaks dj trying to get the girls shacking their body to the beats. A clear win win situation with The Climax and once again another great track under the iBreaks brand.
New World Order sees Digital Base in the remix duties, revamping one of the biggest track of all times in Dead Famous Records. The original track by Robosapiens has been reworked by mr Base injecting it with tons of groove good feel and squeezing the massive Stephen Hawking vocals… This is the New World Order!!!!
