Double A - DJ / Founder, Modus Music Group

Blackout Podcast Episode 349: Double A - DJ / Founder, Modus Music Group

Double A first made his mark as a pioneering drum and bass DJ in Montreal’s underground scene in the early 1990s. Over the next decade, he toured extensively across North America and around the globe—from Cape Town to Tokyo, Los Angeles to Toronto. Alongside longtime DJ partner Twist, he co-founded Dune and Nude Recordings, two influential Montreal-based labels that helped shape the city's electronic music landscape.

With a string of releases and remixes to his name, Double A shifted gears in the early 2000s, stepping away from drum and bass to embrace open-format DJing. On Canada’s East Coast, he became known for producing some of the region’s longest-running monthly events, earning a reputation for his genre-spanning sets and dynamic crowd connection.

After several years in the U.S., Double A is now based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where he continues to push musical boundaries with his digital sets while also staying rooted in his love of vinyl. He’s deep into collecting 45s and runs his own 7" imprint, Mountain 45s. His productions have landed on respected labels like Private Stock Records, Heat Rock, Fridays Funky 45s, and Eastside Edits.

Known for his eclectic and high-energy sets, Double A seamlessly blends genres whether playing digitally or all-vinyl. He’s not chasing rare collectibles or trying to impress crate-diggers—just delivering pure dance floor fire. All fun. All the time.
