Toronto DJ/producer Mike Gibbs got his start in the underground as a singer for local industrial bands DHI, Pure and Love Bomber, that toured with Skinny Puppy, Ministry and Nine Inch Nails. He moved on to playing live techno at raves in the late '90s with local outfit Transformantra before travelling to Asia where he honed his craft as a DJ. After headlining Ministry of Sound in Taipei, Taiwan, Gibbs returned to Toronto circa 2002 and sidestepped the city's mainstream club scene for underground warehouse parties, playing his dark, glitchy, industrial-layered laptop beats. Frequently on the bill for the much-loved Promise events, Gibbs is also a member of the popular Box of Kittens crew, who recently celebrated their second anniversary with guest Marc Romboy.
Mike will perform at this year's Ultra Music Festival in Miami.
