"Twice as Proper" and their founders:
Craft & Shadi have been a DJ duo since 1994 on those legendary Technics 1200's. Then followed the years of CDJ technology and mixers with effects, always keeping it dark, deep, dirty real serious. They now often perform live mixes with the ultimate Xponent controller, with many built-in live effects. They go on with explosive sets, chopping' up loops and samples, all while in the mix. The result is always "Massive". Twice as Proper is a New York City Based Underground Techno Events organization. Shadi & Craft co-created the movement "Twice as Sweet" which then became "Twice as Proper Sessions". With an impressive over 200 events and counting in the past 5 years alone, it is now well known in the NYC minimal techno scene. With quite an illustrious list of guest DJ bookings in venues across Manhattan & Brooklyn, there is always something exciting and different to expect from the events. In 2010, Twice as Proper hosted 8 events in Playa del Carmen (Mexico) during the winter, as well as keeping regular NYC events alive as always. 2011 looks promising, as last year was really good for the two artists, bringing International tours in 5 countries, international radio shows, podcasts, music productions, TV coverage, soundcloud recordings listened to in over 60 countries, new fans and friends. Craft & Shadi promise to rip it Proper. No crap.

- STEVEN LETIGRE (Subtropical)

In 1996, Steven LeTigre moved to Florida where he stumbled onto the house scene that was in full swing due to the likes of Sasha and John Digweed. He then returned to New York two years later and began his DJ career. Influenced and inspired by his friends Larry Banks, Dave Cannalte, Luis Diaz, and Lee Burridge, LeTigre procured a style of his own, one that he considers to be "a sexy and techy vibe, with a certain groove that pulls you in." As a native of Zimbabwe, LeTigre’s style of house music was influenced at an early age by strong beats and deeply embedded rhythms. This influence, accompanied by many years growing up in New Jersey, moments away from New York City’s house music scene, is what’s made LeTigre’s style its own. LeTigre’s originality, determination, and unwavering dedication to create new sounds, has garnered him high respect amongst his fellow DJ’s and devoted fan base. As DJ and roommate Gaby Dershin – (AstroGlyde), once put it, “when you listen to LeTigre spin you get a sense of who he is…if you didn’t know him before, you will when he’s done.” It’s these rave reviews that allow LeTigre to play and continue pursuing house music as an ass shaking art form. As quoted by one of DJ Magazine’s top music editor’s, “LeTigre not only puts everything he is into his music, but everything he’s ever wanted, and everything he wants to be…I can’t wait to see what the next few years will bring for him.”
He has thrown down at some of Miami’s most notable Winter Music Conference parties. Throughout his young career LeTigre has played along side some of the world’s most prominent DJs like; DJ Three, Terry Francis, Steve Lawler, Sean Cusik, Adam Collins, Lee Burridge, Steve Porter, Luis Diaz, Pete Bones, Sasha and many others. On an international level, LeTigre has become a staple in the South American house music diet, while continuously playing venues all over North America. In 2004-2005 brought about the launch of LeTigre’s own record label, Subtropical records, with partner Vincent Casanova. Gaining rave reviews for the release of his two most popular productions, "Tacit Consent" and "Much Too Sexy" which was charted at #14 on the Balance May 2006 chart.
Letigre recently has become a fixture at the burgeoning BPM Festival held in Playa del Carmen, MX. Thanks in large part to his friend Betty Kang of Plexi PR, Letigre has played an increasingly important role atBPM was no exception, playing alongside the likes of Anthony Collins, Shonky, Stacy Pullen, Audiofly, Nitin, and Lee Burrige@The Villa Hermosa. Letigre has high hopes for 2010 after joining Autobrennt, establishing residencies with Resolute and Eklipze and considering the simple fact that it just happens to be the Year of the Tigre.

for electronic music grew stronger and in 1993 he
started promoting events with DJs and live acts in
Seattle. It was around this time Eddie bought his
first pair of decks, and took a one-year break to San
Francisco.
It was eventually time to head back East for Eddie - a
couple of time zones short of Moscow - to explore what
the opposite coast had to offer.
Soon after his 1997 arrival in New York, he secured a
residency at Jet Lounge and Club Speed, just to name
two venues, and performed at Twilo, Limelight and most
of NYC clubs.

Since the beginning of his music career in minimal
electronic music and sound design Eddie was involved
in producing music, culminating in a collaboration
with Alexander Kalin to create Alka-Rex, and
co-founding Gravitonium Records and SP recording
studios.
With over 1000 performances as Dj and many Live shows,
Eddie is a true veteran of the underground music culture.

Eddie's releases as Alka_Rex on Mille Plateaux,Musique Risquée,
Sonic Pleasures,Gravitonium,Them​a,Archipel,Multicolor,Konq​ue,
