Edwin’s first professional DJing gig was in the early 90s, opening for DJ Czech’s famous “Soul Kitchen Sundays” in Whistler, BC. Taking influences from DJ Czech, Scott Arkwell aka DJ Vinyl Richie, and Tommy Africa’s resident DJ Scott Elliot, Edwin became a student of multi-genre DJing. From Whistler, he moved back to southwestern Ontario to take up several residencies, playing with DJs from the world-famous “Industry Nightclub” in Toronto.

During the mid-90s, “The Cat” moved to Halifax where, along with Harry Mathers, Mike Paine (aka Hoola Hoop), and Sara Spicer (aka Lioness), he helped open Vitamin Tribe Records on Hollis Street. The Vitamin Tribe crew helped to pioneer the outdoor music festival scene in Halifax, throwing free full moon parties at renegade locations near the Halifax airport. These underground events soon turned into the most famous parties of that era, such as “Go the Distance” and “Go Further.” If you attended these parties, you will certainly remember Edwin’s epic sunrise sets, dropping timeless classics like “Everybody Loves The Sunshine” literally as the sun reached the horizon.

In 2000, Edwin moved to the Caribbean with John Farrugia aka Big Toe of Big Toe’s Hi-Fi to explore and learn the grassroots of turntable culture. Edwin played both the 2009 and 2010 “Shambhala,” one of Canada’s premiere international music festivals held in the Kootenay Mountains of BC. From 2013 until 2019, Edwin ran a night called Saturday Night Fever in Guelph, Ontario, that brought in international DJs such as Doc Link, Terrance Parker, Angelo Ferreri, JFB, Jason Hodges, The Funk Hunters, and many more.

His styles range from deep soulful house to disco, funk, acid jazz, hip hop, reggae, and anything else that gets people shaking their asses.
