THiCK ARTIST OF THE WEEK:

Jashko

(pronounced yash-ko)

From the Jashko fan page: 
"JASHKO was born during a ferocious lightning storm in 1987, on the eve the new year. Scholars would later say that his ear for the deepest, dirtiest electro and house music may very well have been developed that fateful night. For the last 22 years.... He has remained dormant while preparing to unleash his wrath upon the electro-house music scene. As he begins work on his first productions, many other artists have simply given up as they know they will be no match for his well-endowed beats. His expertly crafted mixes have been known to cause euphoria as well as several reported instances of spontaneous combustion. It is estimated that in the time it has taken you to read this artist bio, JASHKO has orbited the earth 3 times."

Blowing up on the Denver electronic scene is Josh Rosenholtz, aka Jashko. By day, he plays goalie for the Division 1 DU hockey team, but by night he takes Denver by storm, bombarding it with the dirtiest progressive and electro house beats you'll probably ever hear. Recently featured on ncaa.com, author Jen Gunnells highlights how Rosenholtz balances music with athletics and academics, and how Jashko is becoming a household name in the Denver electronic scene and around the DU and CU campuses. Jashko also produces an hour long "Nitty Gritty Podcast" every week, all available for free download on his podhoster.

November 11th, Jashko is joining forces with other prominent denver house artists (DJ Tozo, Fidget Factory, and others) to put on a free charity event at Cassleman's in Denver to benefit the initiative to end war in uganda. For more information on the event click here
