Skratch Bastid at Sapphire Club

Saturday March 12 2011 – Sapphire presents Skratch Bastid with Sapphire resident DJ Swat
 In 2010, The Bastid has become one of Canada’s most in-demand DJs and respected producers but don’t think it happened overnight.  From his humble beginnings a decade ago as a teenager in Halifax- pumping out mixtapes from his bedroom and earning a loyal following already back then- he slowly spread his skills first at DJ competitions like DMC, ITF, and Scribble Jam and now around Canada and the world as a widely recognized go-to guy for party-rocking. The illest redhead on turntables has since gone viral. Seriously, youtube that shit.
