The Downbeat Presents:
Neighbour (Van.)
Mood Beach
Mt. Doyle
This one is a special one for us at the club. It is our fearless leaders birthday bash. Joe has been an integral part of Victoria’s underground dance scene for some time now, having promoted shows as “Bazooka Joe”, Bartended and Managed at seminal venues The Limit and Hush (the very same venue where The Downbeat now exists). It is also our Head Bartender, Erin’s birthday, as well as our Social Media Manager and Bartender, Beau. Aries birthdays, come represent- were throwing you an Aries B-day bash and we knew that we had to come through with a heater. We did. Neighbour has played many legendary sets on Vancouver Island- Playing the closing set at Soundwave year after year- (with local legend DJ Trever) as well as being a Fractal Forest resident at Shambhala. Three years ago he played one of the best closing sets that Song and Surf has ever had.
Newcomer, Mood Beach of the Vic Drip squad, played The Downbeats first set of the year and we knew we had to have her back. We can’t wait to hear what she does in direct support of Neighbour. Rounding out the night, we have an all star opener, Mt. Doyle, who has turned out many dance floors, going back to the days of Hush. Last summer alone he destroyed the festival circuit, playing Shambhala, Deep Roots, Rifflandia, Wicked Woods, Electric Love, Womp and Otherworld. Crazy.

Neighbour is no stranger to Canada’s dance music scene and has been seen rocking the country's dance music scene for decades. His sets are chocked full of amazing original disco, house and boogie and often punctuated with his live guitar. Every time we see this wizard behind the decks we are reminded of why his name is so often seen on line ups across the continent. Neighbour hasn’t played Victoria for years and we couldn’t be more excited to have him rock Social Grooves.

In the beginning Mt. Doyle was known for his smooth taste in Drum & Bass, and his unmatched love for pizza. But it wasn't long before Doyle expanded his horizons to include Funk, House, Hip-Hop and Bass, all with his soulful West Coast flavour. He quickly became a staple in the BC electronic music scene, known not only for his multi-genre sets but his range of recorded mixes as well.
Over the past 10 years Mt. Doyle has played lounges, clubs and festivals all over the North West, including Shambhala, Lightning In A Bottle, Rifflandia, Electric Love, Wicked Woods, Friendzy Fest, Fozzy Fest, Bamboo Bass, Astral Harvest, Ska Fest, Sun Fest and The Tall Tree Festival. In that time he’s shared the stage with international heavyweights Aphrodite, Camo & Krooked, Ed Solo, A.Skillz, Stickybuds, The Funk Hunters, Chali 2na, JFB, Dub FX, Rusko, Technimatic, LSB & DRS, Serial Killaz, Dub Pistols, Ray Keith, Netsky and Andy C.
In 2016 Mt. Doyle started The Hydration Mix Series, a monthly Liquid Drum & Bass podcast with DJs Akela, Willisist, Erski, Reflektor, Lasu and DJ Surgeon. Later that year Doyle took on a whole new style as he joined the ranks of Victoria based Hip-Hop band Illvis Freshly, where he made his singing debut. Now, when he's not solo, you can catch his live set with Doyle on vocals and Philly on the guitar.
Over the years Mt. Doyle has established himself as one of the most versatile DJs on Vancouver Island. With a mountainous lust for music and style that keeps you guessing, Mt. Doyle will keep bodies moving any time, any place, with whatever the hell he wants.
