Mike Bishop Promo Mix Mike Bishop got his first professional DJ job at
Perth, Australia's weekly underground Deep House night called 'Vibes' in 1996. Joining 'Looney Choons,' Perth's longest running Friday night electronic music show; Mike grew to become one of the main players and influences on the show.

These artists have had a heavy influence on his style. Now relocated to Toronto, Mike is moving into production of electronic music in a variety of genres such as ambient, electronica, jazz, minimal, funk, tech, and house. Experience organizing events and hosting local radio shows has given Mike the versatility to DJ and maintain a positive level of energy in a club environment spinning house and techno-or create a relaxed vibe in a lounge environment with tasteful track selection smoothly blending genres such as future jazz, experimental and dub.
