They warmed the crowd up perfectly for Thugli who took the stage and BLAZED through their set of exclusive remixes and trap bangers, with an incredible LED wall displaying their custom visuals throughout. Their show is definitely one to see&#8230; Drastik (1 half of Thugli) is a previous National Thre3Style champion himself, and with Tom Wrecks they have great chemistry as a live duo.<\/p>\n<p>Vancouver\u2019s DJ Flipout introduced the seven finalists and the competition began\u2026 First up was Trapment from Sudbury, Ontario. Unexpected tracks from artists like Limp bizkit, good flips of the Fugees, strong stage presence and a nice juggle with Backstreet Boys \u201cEverybody\u201d and C&amp;C Music Factory&#8217;s \u201cEvery Body Dance Now\u201d, which gave his set a well rounded and very strong start to the competition. To be honest, I don&#8217;t like these songs, but Trapment was able to flip them in a way similar to DJ AM, that got your attention and made them interesting and exciting to hear in a different context. This strong effort ended equally as strong with him leaving the stage to Whitney Houstons \u201cI will always love you\u201d. Swoon king.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/widget\/iframe\/?autoplay=&amp;embed_type=widget_standard&amp;embed_uuid=202d31ec-3bc0-4838-b7cb-c80d8eff86f8&amp;feed=%2FRedBullThre3style%2Ftrapment-canada-2015-national-final%2F&amp;hide_artwork=&amp;hide_cover=&amp;hide_tracklist=&amp;light=&amp;mini=&amp;replace=0&amp;stylecolor=\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; height: 3px; width: 300;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"display: block; font-size: 11px; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin: 0; padding: 3px 4px; color: #999; width: 300;\"><a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/RedBullThre3style\/trapment-canada-2015-national-final\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=resource_link\" target=\"_blank\">Trapment &#8211; Canada &#8211; 2015 National Final<\/a> by <a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/RedBullThre3style\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=profile_link\" target=\"_blank\">Red Bull Thre3style<\/a> on <a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=homepage_link\" target=\"_blank\"> Mixcloud<\/a><\/p>\n<p>OKTK from Halifax, Nova Scotia came on the set looking very relaxed and confident, which showed throughout his performance. His theatrics and wordplay made for a really fun performance. He used Busta Rhymes&#8217; \u201cGet Down\u201d while he physically got down behind the tables only to jump back up exposing that under his hoodie he was wearing a Winnipeg Jets (hockey team) jersey! A sure fire way to win over the local crowd. Remember this is Canada, and hockey means a great deal to Canadians, especially in chilly Winnipeg! OKTK ended strong with a unique live re-drum remix of Key\u2019s N Krates \u201cAre We Faded\u201d which certainly gave him points for not only technical but also crowd reaction.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/widget\/iframe\/?autoplay=&amp;embed_type=widget_standard&amp;embed_uuid=60ceea05-3131-49a2-b059-cdbd158a6047&amp;feed=%2FRedBullThre3style%2Fokay-tk-canada-2015-national-final%2F&amp;hide_artwork=&amp;hide_cover=&amp;hide_tracklist=&amp;light=&amp;mini=&amp;replace=0&amp;stylecolor=\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; height: 3px; width: 300;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"display: block; font-size: 11px; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin: 0; padding: 3px 4px; color: #999; width: 300;\"><a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/RedBullThre3style\/okay-tk-canada-2015-national-final\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=resource_link\" target=\"_blank\">OKAY TK &#8211; Canada &#8211; 2015 National Final<\/a> by <a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/RedBullThre3style\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=profile_link\" target=\"_blank\">Red Bull Thre3style<\/a> on <a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=homepage_link\" target=\"_blank\"> Mixcloud<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; height: 3px;\"><\/div>\n<p>DJ Acro also from Ontario, came out of the gate strong with nice song selections, but ran into some technical issues that really seemed to throw him of for the rest of his set.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/widget\/iframe\/?autoplay=&amp;embed_type=widget_standard&amp;embed_uuid=d39c8255-3ac2-413e-964a-611732bbd22f&amp;feed=%2FRedBullThre3style%2Fdj-acro-canada-2015-national-finals%2F&amp;hide_artwork=&amp;hide_cover=&amp;hide_tracklist=&amp;light=&amp;mini=&amp;replace=0&amp;stylecolor=\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; height: 3px; width: 300;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"display: block; font-size: 11px; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin: 0; padding: 3px 4px; color: #999; width: 300;\"><a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/RedBullThre3style\/dj-acro-canada-2015-national-finals\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=resource_link\" target=\"_blank\">DJ Acro &#8211; Canada &#8211; 2015 National Finals<\/a> by <a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/RedBullThre3style\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=profile_link\" target=\"_blank\">Red Bull Thre3style<\/a> on <a style=\"color: #808080; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mixcloud.com\/?utm_source=widget&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=base_links&amp;utm_term=homepage_link\" target=\"_blank\"> Mixcloud<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; height: 3px;\"><\/div>\n<p>Wackutt, from Golden, B.C, is well known in these parts as a touring DJ and part of the Shambhala festival.

Charly is a bit of a Renaissance man, and started his set with classic oldies which gave the set a nice narrative as he moved into more modern tunes. They crowd was in the palm of his hand and his performance was really animated as well. Using more obscure hits like DRAM\u2019s \u201cCha Cha\u201d was really tasteful, winning points from the judges and keeping everyone really entertained. It was clear this set was one of the strongest and by the end of it the crowd had been convinced of this, leaving with great applause.<\/p>\n<p>Defending National Champion from Calgary, C-Sik came on confident and utilized the Pioneer DDJ-SP1 and Slicer feature right away to remix and re-drum James Brown samples and Kendrick Lamar\u2019s \u201cKing Kunta\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>We wanted the funk, and C-Sik certainly brought that.
