dj shAde is THE DJ for rocking your party, rocking live performances and rocking skills in the recording studio.
With over 15 years in the game, shAde has rocked sets all over New England. He’s a perfectionist, whether competing in a dj battle, performing a live set or laying down the cuts in the studio. shAde’s in it to win it... Locally, he’s entered and won battle titles in his homebase of Portland, ME as well as appearing in DMC regional heats in Boston, MA.
Currrently, he focusses on his role as co-host (along with dj Boondocks) of Portland’s most successful and longrunning hip-hop open mic night. Infact, the NY Times’ AHEAD section has featured this night in their publication.
Not content to rest on his laurels, shAde is also the beat selector and platter wrecker for Portland’s local hip-hop antiheroes Labseven. He’s also worked with Bread, Kenmor, Brzowski, Nomar Slevik, B. Ware the Siniq and others seeking his skills on the 1s and 2s. shAde’s table tactics have also made it on to the recordings of artists like Poverty and Paranoid Social Club.
