WOW

Incredible.

The Beat

Been downloading and posting a fair bit of old Chicago House lately. Here’s a big one in 87 by Wired. The synth hook in this is so unbelievably good I can’t stop rewinding it over and over..
Might take a stab at making a more modern edit of it. Watch this space for updates.

I’m floooooating…

I’ve been obsessed with Chemical Brothers & Fatlips’s ‘The Salmon Dance’ since first hearing it on U-Turn’s Brooklyn Radio show about a month ago.

Oi Berlin! This is LONDON.

The rmx is catchy, a bit of a throw back to uk 2-step.. but never really grabbed me.
However, The label Greco Roman’s myspace page, did. By the looks of it, Greco Roman’s [...]

Stupid Bees

The weather is getting colder in Toronto lately. Abnormally cold for August actually. All week has been a low of 10 degrees and it’s making the city bees stupid as fuck.
I’m usually terrified to death of bees. In the summer it’s not uncommon for me to cross the street to avoid garbage cans swarming with [...]

Thief!

What a week and it’s only Tuesday! I played at some after-hours party on Saturday that was SO freaking hot I swear it felt like I pissed myself. The day after the show I realized that I lost my mobile charger there. Did you know that a replacement CELL CHARGER costs like $50 Canadian?? What [...]
