If you’ve ever wanted the best fit out your denim: Shrink to fit is the way to go. If you’ve never heard of shrink-to-fit’s, follow these easy steps:

  1. Soak your new denim in a tub (or sink) of very hot water for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Hang to dry until jeans are no longer dripping wet.
  3. Put on the jeans and let them finish drying. *This allows them to take your shape.
  4. Enjoy!

*Note: Your jeans will be very stiff; this is normal. After the jeans are dry, some will put them through a short cold water wash cycle and let them hang to dry again. This step is optional.

Flipout

May 4th, 2009

This is something you definitely don’t want to miss.   You can see Flipout on the turntables this Thursday in Saskatoon at Bacchus. Check this bio from http://thosemfs.blogspot.com/    flip.jpg  Those MFs have been holding down clubs, parties, concert halls, mixtapes and radio airwaves in Vancouver and across Canada for the last decade. DJ’s Flipout, Jay Swing and Kemo are definitely no strangers to the party. 

On the radio, Those MFs have been staples of the Vancouver airwaves since 1994 when they debuted their mix show on the University of British Columbia’s radio station CiTR 101.9fm. Since then they’ve gone on to be the first DJs in Vancouver to have a Hip-Hop mix show on commercial radio and can now be heard daily on Vancouver’s Hit Music station The Beat 94.5fm’s highly rated shows ‘The 5 O’Clock Traffic Jam’, ‘The 10 O’Clock Hot Mix’, and ‘Straight Goods Hip-Hop Show’ (www.thebeat.com). This past year Flipout & Jay Swing won the 2007 Stylus Award for Canada’s ‘Mix Show Of The Year’ while DJ Kemo won the 2007 Stylus Award for ‘Vancouver DJ Of The Year’. 

In the clubs, the trio has held residencies at Vancouver’s most legendary club nights including “El Famoso”, “Grande” and “Big Up”, the latter being voted Vancouver’s best club night for the past 3 years straight. Not only do Those MFs rule the club scene but they are also the DJ’s of choice when music’s elite roll through town. The sound crew has opened for everybody from Parliament to Puff Daddy. The list of artists they have shared the stage with reads as a who’s who of Hip-Hop royalty…

Parliament, Puff Daddy, Snoop Dogg, Dogg Pound, Ludacris, Nas, Kanye West, Ciara, Lil Jon, Ice Cube, Sean Paul, Busta Rhymes, Black Eyed Peas, Redman, Method Man, Gangstarr, Salt-N-Pepa, KRS One, Raekwon, Mobb Deep, De La Soul, Black Sheep, Phife, The Roots, Rakim, Black Moon, Maestro Fresh Wes, Dilated Peoples, Talib Kweli, Tha Alkaholiks, W.C., Ultramagnetic MC’s, Hieroglyphics, Rahzel, Royce Da 5’9, Beatnuts, Common, Mos Def, Kool Keith, Beenie Man, Afrika Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash, A-Trak, Q-Bert, Mix Master Mike, Shortee Blitz, Mick Boogie, Vice, Cash Money, Kid Capri, DJ Jam.

Those MFs are known for their vast music knowledge, versatile sets, and deep record crates (mp3 crates these days). They can rock any crowd with their mix of Hip-Hop, R&B, Funk, Dancehall, Electro, House, Rock, Latin and Mashup tunes. From Mainstream to Underground, from Hip-Hop to Hipster, one thing remains the same – ain’t no party like a THOSE MFs party!

You can find The Freshest DJing the hottest club nights Vancouver has to offer, from weekend shows at mega-clubs to trendsetting weeknight parties.

Whenever you step into a Freshest party expect the best hip hop, dance, reggae/dancehall, disco, Motown and more: the eclectic winning formula that has solidified The Freshest as Vancouver’s most exciting and in-demand club DJ’s.  We would like to introduce Saskatoon to the music of The Freshest Kids on our blog over the next while.  freshest-kids.jpg
