French-Tunisian DJ Mehdi (Mehdi Favéris-Essadi) has died today. Mehdi was on a plexiglass mezzanine with several other people, when it collapsed ... killing Mehdi and sending 3 others to the hospital. They were celebrating the birthday of they're good friend and DJ, Riton. Riton and Mehdi worked together under the name Carte Blanche.
Never thought my first post on such high ranked DJ would be only to announce his death. Really sad.
