MUZIK
BEACH
Since MUZIK’s inception, our team has carefully nurtured its vision and developed a reputation for delivering five-star luxury, style, service and security. In a constant state of evolution, we strive to transform our outlook as often as we do our classic 1907 structure. Drawing global inspiration, MUZIK is a collection of international ideas that weave together the best the world has to offer. MUZIK is a sanctuary where Torontonians, and world travelers alike, can escape to and indulge in. When you are at MUZIK, you could be anywhere.
This summer MUZIK is preparing to take its clientele to new heights. To kick things off we are unveil-ing the MUZIK BEACH. My inspiration for MUZIK BEACH came from one idea – Toronto and its people. They are international adventure seekers who enjoy the finest destinations as much as they do their own thriving metropolis. MUZIK merges all of this. The soft white sand, palm trees and crystal blue water combined with the lavish landscapes, sculpture garden and the warm wooden cabanas.
I’d like to thank Toronto for its inspiration. The essence and energy of the city has provided MUZIK with the muse it needed in order to reinvent, once again. So get ready, get your summer fashion on and come join me at the beach.

vIbe and energy In the room that
make a nIght specIal to me.”
W RISTPECT
Q: HOW DID YOu GET STARTED IN THE muSIC INDuSTRY?I started by attending local DJ battles and being mesmerized by what those guys were doing with two turntables, a mixer and some records. They were literally using the turntables to manipulate sounds and make it sound like they were playing several different instruments at once. One thing led to another, and as I started going to all-ages club nights I was captivated by how the DJ was controlling a room of 2500 kids and I would spend the whole night by the DJ booth, just watching and study-ing. When I decided I wanted to get out of my basement and start playing clubs, I started as an opening DJ, paying my dues and warming up the room for some of the bigger names in the city.
Q: FIRST SONG YOu EvER mIxED?I think one of the first records that I actually beat-matched and ‘mixed’ was Mya Feat. Jay-Z - Best Of Me (Remix). There are many others but that one stands out to me for some reason.
Q: mOST mEmORABlE SHOW YOu’vE EvER BEEN A PART OF?Opening for and sharing the turntables with guys like Jazzy Jeff and DJ AM are always memorable nights because those are some of my biggest influences. It’s not always the biggest and most beautiful venues that are the most memorable though, but rather the vibe and energy in the room that make a night special to me.
Q: NAmE YOuR mOST INFluENTIAl muSICAl INSPIRATIONS.This is always difficult for me to answer because there are so many people, each for their own reasons... Some that come to mind are Michael Jackson, Miles Davis, Quincy Jones, A-Trak, Phil Collins, Timbaland, Pharrell, James Brown, Daft Punk... I could go on and on.
Q: FIRST RECORD YOu EvER BOuGHT? Hmm... I think that was the Juicy 12” by The Notorious B.I.G.
Q: CuRRENT TOP 5 FAvOuRITE TRACkS OF 2013?In no order, Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams - Get Lucky, Chris Brown - Fine China, Justin Timberlake - Suit & Tie, Duke Dumont ft. A.M.E. - Need U 100%, Drake - Started From The Bottom
Q: YOu’vE PlAYED AlONGSIDE HuGE NAmES SuCH AS EmINEm, DRAkE, AND lADY GAGA. WHICH OTHER ARTISTS WOulD YOu lIkE TO DO A FuTuRE COllABORATION WITH? With Em and Gaga, they were just at events I was DJ-ing but with Drake, we actually put together 3 exclusive records for a mix-tape series of mine. There are so many artists that I’d love to get in the studio with.. Namely, Jay-Z, Andre3000 and Sade.
Q: AS A TORONTO-BASED DJ THAT TOuRS INTERNATIONAl-
lY, HOW DOES OuR CITY’S muSIC SCENE COmPARE TO THE lIkES OF l.A., HONG kONG, OR lONDON?Toronto is a world class city with a world class music scene that plays a major influence to millions of people around the globe. We have artists from all types of genres on the forefront of popular music right now - Drake, Justin Bieber, Deadmau5, Walk Of The Earth, Carly Rae Jepsen, The Weeknd and so many more. Even on an independent level, we have so many amazing artists and producers who are making major waves worldwide. It’s interesting because when I would travel to other cities or countries 5 years ago and mention that I was from Toronto or Canada, no one really cared. Now, it is a completely different story as people realize just how much talent is over here. London is interesting because they definitely have a unique sound that is completely their own and not just because of their accent. As far as LA goes, I think that it is the best place in the world to be for making music; all of the influential executives are there and there’s really no better city to be in for meeting people and getting things done. Hong Kong is primarily shaped and molded after the North American Billboard trends so they are less open minded and both the crowds and venues tend to be (generally speaking) much more commercial.
Q: NAmE A SONG THAT NEvER FAIlS TO PumP uP A lACkluSTER CROWD. “The Way You Make Me Feel” by Michael Jackson or “Poison” by Bel Biv Devoe.
Q: WHAT DO YOu lOvE mOST ABOuT YOuR CAREER?The fact that I get to put smiles on people’s faces and make them forget about their worries and troubles by doing what I love. It’s a great feeling to be able to spread positive energy and connect with someone half way across the world who may not even speak or understand english.. Music is a powerful tool. Traveling to new cities and countries is always an eye opening experience as well; you can learn a lot from the world, especially when you step outside of your own bubble and comfort zone.
Q: FAvOuRITE CITIES TO PlAY IN? Toronto, Oslo, Amsterdam, Singapore, Montreal, New York.
Q: WHAT’S NExT FOR WRISTPECT? Continuing to play events and tour worldwide, working on music marketing campaigns for brands, and focussing on my own original productions, which I hope to start releasing this year.

J arellaQ: HOW DID YOu GET STARTED IN THE muSIC INDuSTRY?I was introduced to DJ-ing at age 12, my older brother and cousin were bedroom DJ’s and I was fascinated by the technology and the sounds.
Q: FIRST SONG YOu EvER mIxED?It’s Time To Party by Raydio (70’s & 80’s funk group featuring Ray parker Jr.) I was a disco & funk child being the youngest of 8 (2 brothers and 5 sisters).
Q: mOST mEmORABlE SHOW YOu’vE EvER BEEN A PART OF?I was the DJ of choice for Cher’s Farewell Concert at the Skydome (Roger’s Centre). It was an amazing feeling to be performing in front of 30k people all whilst interacting with The Queen Diva herself.
Q: NAmE YOuR mOST INFluENTIAl muSICAl INSPIRATIONS.I am a purveyor of all music. Genres are too confusing, especially to today’s generation. I was a drummer in my early days and loved Jeff Porcaro (Toto) & Jonathan Moffatt (Quincy Jones studio band), they knew how to keep a groove without overdoing it.
Q: FIRST RECORD YOu EvER BOuGHT?Being the youngest of 8 siblings, I got a lot of records handed down, I don’t really recall the first “one” but there have been many since.
Q: CuRRENT TOP 5 FAvOuRITE TRACkS OF 2013?1. Reverse Skydiving – Lee Foss feat. Anabel Englund2. Calling (Lose My Mind) - Joe Marella & LOS Bootleg Reconstruction3. Nobody Else (Original Mix) - NTFO4. Get Lucky – Daft Punk5. Soul Ft. Sutja Gutierrez (Nice7 Remix) - Affkt

Q: DO YOu HAvE A PRE-SHOW ROuTINE/REGImE?I try not to listen to club music for at least ½ of the day prior to a gig.
Q: WHAT DO YOu lOvE mOST ABOuT SPINNING AT muzIk?The diversity of the crowd, the SOUND SYSTEM, the space is incredible with the 60’ glass dome.
Q: vINYl vS DIGITAl?I’m a vinyl junkie, but I realize that digital is the future and I’ve adapted and will keep adapting as long as there is change. Change is good.
Q: WHERE DO YOu SEE THE DJ mOvEmENT IN THE NExT 5 YEARS? So many people believe that they can create a playlist of mp3’s and use software to “mix” the songs, therefore they call themselves a “DJ”. The MOST important part of being a DJ is the ability to read your crowd and feed off of their energy. My motto is “keep them on the dancefloor.” I refuse to let my audience slip away and then have to play to “bring them back.”The digital movement has made it too easy for anyone to claim to be a DJ. However, the future is definitely in the digital world.

Dressed in white, with damask wall coverings, subtle white and blue lighting accents and a dramatic five-foot chandelier, the aesthetic is minimal and warm.
The sculpted mirrors and a stunning custom bar convey an atmosphere that is understated yet luxurious. Guests will enjoy an elevated experience within a sophisticated environment.
