DJ Edgar – Coming with a full blast!

DJ Edgar is one of those persons you just have to like when you meet him: He's a bit like a gentle giant. The man's been DJing for 17 years now, played with the equipe of Furacão 2000, backed up the duo William & Duda (Duda do Borel nowadays) in the 90's, after that worked with MC Mascot and the duo Gorila e Preto, and for quite a while backed up Mr. Catra, toured with him and did most of the production for his albums.

Anyway, now he's going solo and planning an European tour for May. If you're interested in booking him contact Johan von Friedrichs.

His EP in Baile Funk Masters series has been out already half a year, but if you're not yet familiar with his stuff, do it now. His remix of Léo Canhoto's and Robertinho's "Chumbo Quente" is sure a hot gun blaze!

Also Edgar just posted me some goodies, I'm sure you'll also like! First check out this youtube clip where he's playing live MPC.



The second one is brand new with his new toy, MPC 500...
