Duncan was an acquaintance of mine as with most in the dj and dance community. A bright up and comer with great talent. I think most can agree that he was a kind soul with a great smile. He was always eager to share he delight in music with others and he had a vibrant spirit around everyone. I, by far, wasn’t the closest with Freshbake but we were dj-friendly and shared conversations from time to time. I was always glad to see him when he was around. I remember seeing him at the last full moon event and he was as jolly as ever when we spoke. It’s a shame to see a light who shines as bright as he did, go out in the world. My thoughts go out to his family and his friends. As with all passings of people close to us and those that we love, we should remember what he shared with us, celebrating the life he wanted us to be apart of.
May he rest in peace. – J
