http://www.popkiller.ca/podcast/geoff-pye-live-on-dewtonecom/Sometime in the mid-nineties, Geoff began to amass a collection of 12" records and auspiciously learned to mix. He started making his own mixtapes and handed them out to other djs, friends, and party promoters. He received great reviews and was soon deejaying at the parties and clubnights in his hometown of Calgary, Canada. This eventually lead to a residency at The Warehouse, where he shared the decks with Fabric's Terry Francis, Tiga, Claude Von Stroke, John Selway, Luke Solomon, Jay Tripwire and Tyler Stadius among others. In 2005, he developed a regular gig with 'Deepen' at the Lotus Sound Lounge in Vancouver and ended up moving to the city. Since then, he has been keeping up a popular series of events in Vancouver under the guise of Popkiller, featuring top international talent such as John Tejada, Jay Haze, Alex Smoke, Mieka Du Franx, and Adam Marshall. As of late, Geoff has been developing his production skills. In 2008, his release "Keeping It Real" with Mieka Du Franx was a featured release on Beatport and received positive feedback from notable artists including Laurent Garnier, Chris Carrier, Rene Breitbarth, DJ:Terry:, and Alland Byallo. Watch out for more releases to come in 2009 including a remix of The Buddy System for Felinephonix Music.

Mieka's label, Felinephonix Music was formed in 2005 with its first record press, and continues to appeal to DJs around the world as it stretches to do things different. Presently, Mieka has been given the honorable opportunity to remix Ralph Falcon's 1992 classic, "Every Now And Then", which will be released in Spring time on New York city's famous, Nervous Records. Another big break for this lady is on the main stage at this year's annual Detroit Electronic Music Festival, Movement; giving a lead-in for some of the biggest talent in industry, including Francois Kevorkian, Carl Coz, and Steve Bug. Mieka's approach to working from the inside and out, highlights her natural ability to instinctually coordinate her spectrum of many talents expressed with an ease of authentic creativity. Her ideas appear to steadily rise with a spirit of pure fun, which in turn have manifested in her multi-media endeavors with unique flavor.
