Dub/Step Portland, Oregon Hosts soundsystem dances "Version" and "Various" in Portland, Oregon. Affiliations : Lo Dubs Records. Website: http://www.pdxindub.com/ Monkeytek works deep in the mines at Lo Dubs Records seeking out quality tunes to release on 12" wax. Inspired by the sounds of early Jungle and Ninja Tunes, he began djing in 1996 and has been at it ever since. Monkeytek curates Portland's foundational Dubstep soundsystem dance (est. 2006) alongside his friend Ryan Organ. In early 2010, Monkeytek initiated a function called Version with Lo Dubs partner and bossman Jon A.D.. Version builds on the solid foundation set by Various and intensifies the Dancehall vibes inherent in Dubstep and showcase what Dubstep is, was and can be. In the interest of forward motion and keeping rooted in soundsystem culture of old, Monkeytek always comes through with freshly cut dubplates and exclusives. Rejecting the current trend of Dudestep as totally vacuous garbage, Monkeytek prefers heavy heavy sub-bass and dimly lit rooms to the wobbles, flashing lights and gunfingers. In his time running Version & Various and working the label, Monkeytek has hosted and played alongside Kode9 & Spaceape, XI, Daega Sound, E3, Alter Echo, Zizek, Lloop, DJG, Moldy, Struggle, Jagga Culture and also played alongside his friend Deejay Collage at DB in Dub 2009.
