Check out this chat with Ben and Marna. They dive into the start of Miss Mar's DJ journey and she touches on how she curates a show, and creating her sets around a peak song. @Marna Rogoschewsky

Hello everyone, I'm Nathan, I own a music retail store that sells & repairs vintage stereo equipment called Sound Heritage (Nanaimo), I've lived on Vancouver Island for about 5 years & love the music & events scenes here! I've hosted many small live music events at my shop in the past two years, & am working on getting an outdoor space behind the store up to code for 100-200 person events in 2026-2027. Additionally, I'm into volunteering & working at festivals and burning man regional events, and am exploring ways to level up my skills in the off-seasons to be more helpful in these contexts. I attended the Laketown Events Training Program last year, gaining hands-on training in site operations and stage management. Was proud to lend my skills at Sunk City Music Fest, Pachena Bay, Otherworld & What If in summer 2025! I'm also learning to DJ, with Tech House as my first musical love in this regard! Hoping 2026 will be the year I perform in front of a crowd. Stoked to be a part of this intentional community and the collaborations to come 💫🎶🏞️

Hello all happy new year! I'm seeking help to throw a couple all ages parties, one on Family day the other easter Monday. I threw both of these parties last year at the downbeat with phenomenal success, we even made the Chek 6 news! We have a hall booked for this round as theres no kiddos at the club any more we just need hands on deck. We are looking to raise funds for a website to get some form of legitimacy to approach city hall in Vic to throw some larger publicly sanctioned events in Beacon hill park or maybe even some place i dont know about yet in a different municipality who is supporting of this type of fun, Victoria can be sleeeeeepy. Please feel free to shoot me a message on here! Have a great weekend
