HEARTBEATSHOP
Heartbeatshop (Soren T-Workshop and Wataru Uno) are core members of the infamous The Van City Soul Hop Committee. They will be joining forces to
unleash a dose of exploratory improvised triphop. Drum machines, turntables, loop pedals, microphones and hand percussion ... yes please!
BORIS (dancer)
Boris (Vancity Lockers) stumbled into dance 5 years ago and has been going deeper and deeper ever since. He works on Hip Hop, Popping, Hustle, and Dancehall - but claims Locking as his first love. As one of the co-founders of the Vancouver Street Dance Festival, he splits his time evenly between organizing events, practicing for battles/performances, and just feeling happy on the dance floor.
***Vancouver Groove Movement***
Vancouver Groove Movement is a loose collection of local DJs, musicians, and other artists united in the cause of rocking the jam and enriching the sonic landscape of Vancouver’s club culture.
