Spring Break has finally come to Montreal, and seeing as how this is my last vacation as an undergraduate (which is horrifying to even think about) I’m doing it right and heading down to New Orleans for Mardis Gras. That being said I’ll be away from my computer and the blog for about a week, so today I’m going to leave you with some music you can enjoy this weekend. The last few days have been big, with new releases…

What’s up yall? Just thought I would drop by with a video and a few new tunes to get you over that Wednesday hump. First up is a spasm-enducing new video from Huoratron, the Finnish techno specialist who has a new LP in the works. Seriously though, take heed of the warning at the beginning of this video, it’s not for the faint of heart.   Huoratron – “Cryptocracy” (Official Music Video) by LastGangRecords And now some new tracks for…

So this may be a bit preliminary, but the interwebs are abuzz today about some recent comments from disco pioneer Nile Rodgers regarding his recent time spent with prolific dance duo Daft Punk. After scoring the soundtrack for 2011′s Tron Legacy with Hans Zimmer, many fans have been anxious to know if we can expect more original material from our favorite French robots soon. Well we may have our first clue as to what to expect, and the news seems…

Happy Friday everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, so I thought I would take things in a bit of a different direction this week. We’re gonna get a little more vibe-y than usual with some great deep house tracks from Tensnake, Maya Jane Coles, Scuba and a few others. So sit back, relax and let the grooves take you away. Our mixtape this week comes from my partner in crime for DJing and producing: K431….

Igloofest Weekend Three

As expected, the 2012 installment of Igloofest has been an amazing success thus far. A-Trak, Buraka Som Systema, French Fries, Max Cooper, Sebastian Leger and many more have already managed to melt faces in the sub-zero temperatures, and the festival isn’t even close to finished yet. So far we’ve already seen the first ever sell-out in Igloofest history, with over 10,000 rabid fans descending on the Quays on Saturday night, so be sure to get your tickets for this weekend…

If you’ve lived in this city for a decent amount of time, I think you will agree that it hasn’t felt much like a Montreal winter for the last few weeks. The roads were clear of brown slush, the sidewalks weren’t completely covered in ice, and you could even walk outside freely without the snot in your nose immediately freezing. Given all of that, it seems perfectly fitting that the snow has finally returned to Montreal just in time for…

  It’s no secret that as time passes by, your tastes in music, clothes, friends etc. will inevitably change. While I still love my EDM music as much as ever before, I’ve recently found myself more and more seeking out new down-tempo, chilled out tracks from younger, up-and-coming producers, and New York’s Cream Dream is one of the producers who’s caught my ear because of his infectious hip hop instrumental beats. His music is in a somewhat similar vein as…

Happy Friday everyone. I have to say I’m pretty excited for my first weekend back in Montreal since I left for my final winter break ever (sadface..) For those of you who are heading back to school in the next few days or are stuck traveling when you would rather be out partying, here are some tracks to get you through until you reach your final destination. Today for my first Mixtape Friday of 2012 I have tunes from Angger…

What’s up everyone? Well I’m back from my self-imposed hiatus, I needed some time to recuperate and be generally lazy while I had the chance, but I hope you all had a happy and healthy holiday season. Over the break my friends over at the New Philadelphia threw an absolute banger of a new years party, head over to their facebook page to check out some of the great pics. For today I’m back with a new crop of great…
