Pronouns: They/She
Location: unceded territories of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) first nations - Vancouver BC

Influences: All the QTBIPOC ravers before me who fought to claim their space on the dancefloor. Every unapologetic dancer in the room. Any DJ who isn’t afraid to take risks in their mixing or the music they’re playing. Chicago and all that it’s brought to dance music. All the Filipinos grinding day in and day out back home and all across the world trying to survive and thrive. My family. My friends at Acceleration Radio, Kimit, Apple, Karan. My partner Liv.

Favorite Quote: “Always keep a 9-5 job for as long as you can - it prevents you from making stupid mistakes with your art for the sake of money. Trust me, there’s no better feeling than telling someone to fuck off for your art’s integrity” - Bambu De Pistola

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community: Do it for the art and because you love it over anything else. Keep your ego in check. You’re not any more important than any of the dancers in the room. Don’t be afraid to turn down a gig if it doesn’t line up with your values. If you’re booked for a gig don’t assume the promoter has it all figured out - stay vigilant and keep each other safe. This goes for anyone.

With this mix Apex Twink asks to please learn more about and consider donating to: DULF BC - Drug User Liberation Front. Vancouver’s downtown East side is the epicenter of Canada’s toxic drug crisis and DULF is providing a free safe supply of heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamine through their Dope On Arrival (DOA) program, made possible by their sustainer donor campaign. They also occasionally put on events dispensing free drugs for the neighborhood. You can support them by becoming a monthly donor, making a crypto donation, or purchasing merch through (www.dulf.ca)
