All right folks, things continue to keep on trucking as we are set to soon add 2 more DJ's to the MCast roster.
First up is another trek down to Argentina. Ezequiel Pasquale comes aboard with his new show "Perceptions." (ed. note: not to be confused with the long-running "Perceptions" on Proton Radio)

[/CENTER] [I]"Influenced by bands such as Depeche Mode and New Order, Ezequiel Pasquale burst into the electronic scene in Mar del Plata, Argentina at the end of the 1990's by taking part in private events and after parties. Since his beginnings as a professional DJ, Ezequiel covered the big club circuit of Mar del Plata (Sobremonte, Club Gap, Chocolate, Mr Jones). Soon he became resident at Mr. Jones (one of the most exclusive DJ booth in his town). At the same time, he is the elect to open almost all the international gigs in his city, building a reputation on being one of the most renowned DJ's in Mar del Plata.[/I]
[I]It doesn´t matter if it s a deep earlier set or a peak-time performance, just for friends or a 4000 people venue, he deliver always an innovative set programming with a unique track selection. He tours around the country; Rosario and Buenos Aires are the main destination.[/I]
[I]He has shared DJ booths with artists such as Circulation, Mr. C, John Creamer, Echomen, Paul Jackson, Rowan Blades, Bill Patrick, Jaytech & Matt Rowan, Kosmas Epsilon, Derek Howell, Demi, Corrie, Martin Garcia and Aldo Haydar to name a few. He has participated in events such as Ministry of Sound, Playfest, Movement, Marbella at Night, MDQ Dance Parade, Camel Genuine Sounds, Quilmes Experience and Chandon between others.[/I]
[I]In addition to his career as a DJ, he is currently developing his producing and remixing abilities. His unique style and sound takes influence from progressive house, techno to deep, dub and ambient stuff. His sets, a tasty combination of forward thinking music, climate and groove, have often been featured on radio shows (Last.fm, Frisky & Proton Radio)."[/I]

Second is Linga Sharira w/Level B. Linga found MCast via an email through another listener and quickly applied to be added to the roster. Formerly a member of Slurpy Radio, Linga's past shows included guests like Samuel L Session, David Keno, & Clara Moto.
[I][SIZE=2]"Born in Toronto, Canada- Linga Sharira's passion for music and DJing began at the young age of 8 when he received a Mickey Mouse turntable as a birthday gift. Unfortunately, funding for records from his parents fell short after he kept scratching over their tunes. By the time he was 10 years of age, Linga Sharira had purchased his first 4x4 disco style cassette tapes, which ended up exposing him to House music. Two years later, Linga Sharira began mixing tracks he deemed 'mixable' making use, for the first time of double cassette players that contained dual speeds and slow forwards By the age of 15, he began playing at local events after he purchased his first mixer and turntables (with a little help from his grandmother) that came equipped with pitch control. After trying to mix with dual speed cassette players while holding the slow forward buttons ever so gently, the pitch control was a blessing.
Having a mild interest for the House classics, Linga Sharira's transition to electronic music occurred with the Trance of the early to mid 90's. These classics had given him a new love of this art form of pure music. From there on, although having a love for this genre, his style and sound has developed from his motto of D.H.T. – dark (deep), hard and “techy."
[/SIZE][SIZE=2]His style of hard beats, haunting melodies, tight harmonic mixing, driving bass, synth-heavy and “techy trippy” sounds has sparked much interest in those who admire the fascinating atmospheric sounds of electronic music to those who pack the dance floors. At times he makes use of keyboards/synths for live performances which ends up becoming more of a concert rather than a DJ set. He is also known for producing and mixing deep ambient and down tempo tracks. However, to classify his sound as either techno, tech-trance, psy or down tempo would be undermining his sound. He refers to his sound and style simply as electronic music; a sound and style that defines Linga Sharira- a state of energy and spirituality. Also, living up to the characteristics of a Linga Sharira – a doppelganger. Linga is known for DJing and producing under many different projects and aliases that enhance his overall sound."[/SIZE][/I]
Linga will also bring something different to the table with the periodic "Lunar Reflections" side of things, which is his ambient/downtempo sets.
