Dj Maine Event was raised in Belfast Maine. All through 80's he was known to make mixtapes for the kids at his school and would record them with dual tape decks and pass them out so others could hear some of the music that he was feeling. In the mid 90's he moved north to Bangor Maine and then south to Portland Maine with his career and by te end of the 90's found himself in Peabody Mass. This is where Maine Event picked up a mic and was first a freestyle emcee under the name "amazing caucasion" (Based off Roy Barboza on JAMN 94.5 calling himself the Freakin Puerto Rican) and then bought his fist turntables and it was over!!
Although Maine Event was always into hip hop music...he found the indie scene while living in Mass. His first show featured Akrobtik, Skitzofreniks, 7L & Esoteric, Virtuoso, and Reks... basically the whole Boston scene at the time. Although the show had poor turn out, the artists were so talented, and so glad just to rock the set...Maine Event started to find his true calling.
It wasn't until he moved back to Maine and got connected to the scene here that he thought about where he fit in... what role he wanted to play to get these artists seen by a larger audience. In 2006 Maine Event hooked up with then named MC Adverb (now Mike B) to assist at WMHB 89.7fm Waterville with "Hip Hop Nation" which is the longest running hip hop show in Maine....From that first day..... Maine Event knew...this.... was his calling.
Today Dj Maine Event does weddings,parties and still does a weekly radio show from WMHB, but now it features the best hip hop of the Northeast (for those that don't get it.. New York to Maine) it can be heard online www.wmhb.org or 89.7 fm Thursday nights 8-10pm

Philosophy driven by evolution, fueled by diversity. With fierce yet melodic guitar riffs, bone shaking rhythms, and insightful lyrics. Loki brings a unique hard rock style to the table that embraces the resemblance to such bands as Incubus, Taproot, and Breaking Benjamin. Based in the rising musical hub of Portland, Maine, Loki was formed by Jon Taylor and Jonathan Boyer in the year 2000 at the University of Southern Maine. In 2001 Loki recorded their debut EP "Finity”, receiving acclaim from fans and musicians alike. Loki had found their direction, a brand hard rock with unrivaled intensity that truly connects with it’s listeners. This direction resulted in both 2002's debut full length "Born" and 2004's "Firelight" LP's. Named after the Norse God of mischief & change, Loki has continually found themselves in a flow of challenge and perseverance allowing them to outlive many other musical acts. With the additions of Adam Nichols (drums) and Seth McClellan (bass) Loki established their strongest lineup to date, Loki has recorded 2008’s “No Disclaimers” EP.
Receiving support from both of Maine’s major rock/alternative radio stations 105.1 FM WTOS and 94.3 FM WCYY, Loki has an ever growing loyal fan base, and has awoken a fire within their technical and passionate performances. Loki throws a stick in the spokes of modern rock today! Notable Achievements: Top 10 Local CD Sales 2008’s No Disclaimers EP Debuted at 3 in Local CD Sales in June 2008.
