Join DJs Jason Palma, Paul E Lopes, Iced Misto DJ YOGI & Jay NuFunk hosted by Pedro Hotstepper for an incredible evening of costumes, music, and dancing in an intimate setting.

Performers:

Considered one of Toronto’s most popular DJs, Jason Palma has pushed the groove via his weekly radio show ‘Higher Ground’ on CIUT. Beyond playing countless parties across the city, Palma has held a decades-long monthly residency ‘Footprints.’

Paul E. Lopes, often called the “DJ’s DJ,” is a veteran of Toronto’s music scene, admired for his vast record collection, seamless mixing, and infectious energy behind the decks. Starting his career in 1982 at just 13, Lopes was shaped by the reggae and early hip-hop of his neighborhood parks and went on to influence countless DJs through his eclectic Vibes ’N’ Stuff radio show on CIUT (1994–98), which blended jazz, rare groove, hip-hop, house, and soul. While his style has evolved to focus more on house since 1998, his guiding principle remains the same: “Good music for good people.”

DJ/Promoter DJ YOGI and his company United Soul has been a leading curator in Toronto's House Music community for over 2 decades. His journey started as a member of the highly respected DJ collective the Groove Institute. DJ YOGi's sets showcase his love for global rhythms and Solid Garage. He has appeared at WMC, Mi Casa Su Casa, BPM Festival, The Tribe Tambor Boat Cruise & The Chosen Few Picnic.

Iced Misto is a formidable mixologist of all genres who has a knack for effortlessly fusing in gems as well as never mixing the same way twice. She’s also known in the street dance world wearing several hats as an organizer, advisor, dj, and dancer not to mention that she is an accomplished graphic artist and web developer.

A concert promoter, musician & DJ, Jay NuFunk is known for playing disco-funk, party breaks, and soulful-house between sets at live concerts. He is the founder of Groovin' in the Park, NuFunk Concerts, co-Founder of Brooklyn’s No Wahala DJs and Toronto's Make it Funky Collective.
