DJ Soundwar Chapter 4 – Vancouver, BC November 11 & 12th 1994.
Footage filmed by me using a VHS-C camcorder at the time and transferred to digital in 2016. Because the batteries didn’t last more than 20-30 min at a time I didn’t get to tape everyone but I’m including the entire 2 day roster (in order as printed) to give proper credit to everyone. I edited some names as the original pamphlet had some spelling mistakes.
Sound and quality isn’t the best but the original tapes survived a flood and I figured it would be better to upload what I have to preserve some of the original Vancouver Hip Hop history.
