Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Dabbling in DJ’ing since childhood, DJ Ducats has without a doubt carved a solid name for himself in the Ottawa hip-hop scene. Best known for his unique style and successful radio show, Peaceful Journey, some say Ducats is the gold standard for DJs here in Ottawa. With one of the biggest vinyl collections in the city, you’ll be sure to enjoy his mix of old school beats and new school flavour.
Getting his first set of decks in ’91, Ducats has always had a passion for hip-hop. With one of his main goals always being to please the crowd, he has a very distinctive way of blending together those old gems with today’s up-and-comers. He has worked with many well-established artists, producers and DJs such as Pharcyde, Kardinal Offishall, Boot Camp Clik, Roc Raida, Tha Alkaholiks and DJ Illo, to name a few.

I'm listening to my YouTube playlist and the Term track came on from his album Bad Decisions released in 2018. Just thinking about how much amazing hip-hop there is now. I came up during the 80s and 90s, so as I rolled over the turn of the century I…

I was always a big Seinfeld fan in the 90s, at least once I watched an episode from beginning to end. I'd heard the show was popular and didn't get it when I tuned in one day part way through the episode. A year or so passed and I was of the impress…

For whatever reason from the onset of my career radio, I've always tried to spin brand new music on just about every single show I've ever done. I guess I always wanted people to say that the first time they heard something was when I spun it. For m…

I've been DJing since the late 80s. Perhaps not professionally I guess, but I certainly had started the process of attaining equipment (through the generous help of my parents) and learning (by listening to countless hours of radio and going on my f…

Peace hip-hop heads, music lovers and reader. I hope you and yours are doing well. Been a minute since I posted last, so I thought I should do another and update those interested.
