On a steady rise amongst the world’s top DJs, Val and Vince definitely know how to make you shake and anyone who’s listening will undoubtedly be hearing more about these guys, whether it’s through their production work – their latest remix Kasbah Zoo “La Furtive Se Sienta” (The Junkies Remix) was picked up by Spain’s DJ Chus and featured on the May 21st edition of his InStereo Radio Show – or, if you’re fortunate enough, in person as they perform around Toronto’s best clubs and events.
