For those of you who’ve been following my blogs for a few years, you may be familar with with the various mixtapes I’ve done. One of the most fun mixtapes series I’ve taken on is for the Freekugly LIfestyle Brand. We first did Volume 1 in 2006 shortly after the brand launched and there was a ton of positive feedback all over the city. We decided to do Part 2 in 2009 when my long time friend Kariem started rebranding Freekugly and taking things to the next level. Now the brand is rapidly moving, with placements in several boutiques, on Karmaloop and generating interest all over the planet on the web. We brought in my Illvibe comrade DJ Phsh and Philadelphia MC and swag expert, The Show to rock out even harder. Fresh out the studio, we bring you FU3, Welcome To Uglyville, The Mixtape.

Gone Phshin’: Illvibe Collective welcomes DJ Phsh to the team

Illvibe Collective is a DJ/Production team from Philadelphia comprised of Statik aka Mr. Sonny James, Skipmode, Panek, Lil’ Dave, and Phillee Blunt. The collective has developed a global reputation for traditional DJing, taste-making, and production for over a decade with their unique blend of traditional hip-hop, funk, soul, samba, reggae, house, and electronic music.

Matthew Fishman Dickerson, better known as DJ Phsh (pronounced Fish) started rocking with Illvibe at the Arts Garage in 2007 when they were doing the Duplex party with Boombastics. Whether there were 300 people in the spot or 30, Phsh, then 18 years old played inspiring sets and impressed the crew with his knowledge of music new and old in multiple genres. It was somewhat of a training ground to mold the talented DJ that Phsh has developed into.

Since then Phsh has solidified himself as a staple in Philadelphia among the local dance community playing a wide range of tunes at The Gathering and with his Superdope! party weekly at the legendary Fluid Nightclub. He has been the DJ for Money Makin Jam Boys, Selena Carrera, TuPhace aka Mike Taylor, and Hezekiah.

Illvibe Collective recently released their debut album, All Together Now on Soulspazm/Fat Beats Records to wide critical acclaim. The crew are developing plans for the remainder of the year including an All Together Now Remix album, a follow up EP, a European tour, a series of mixtapes, and official remixes for other artists. Having Phsh on board to add his flavor to their up and coming endeavors will undoubtedly strengthen Illvibe’s foundation and help push their style in new directions.
