Happy Friday everyone. Just got back a few hours ago from seeing Flying Lotus and Lunice at Just For Laughs, and I’m happy to say that this show exceeded my already high expectations.  Lunice got the crowd pumped up and ready to go by playing a great selection of hip hop tracks and showing off his formidable dance moves. He was a great opener, but it was Fly Lo who really brought down the house. He played off of the…

Happy Friday everyone. Well it’s finally here, the last post that I will write from the great city of Philadelphia. Come Sunday I’ll be heading back up to Montreal to begin another year of concerts and shenanigans, but I had one hell of a sendoff on Wednesday at the HARD summer tour. Rusko, Sinden and Crystal Castles absolutely blew the roof off of the Electric Factory, and just to ensure that my ears never fully recover, I’ll be welcomed back…

What’s good everyone, happy Friday to you all. It still seems a bit strange to me, but the summer is quickly slipping away and today marks the beginning of my last full weekend in Philadelphia. This summer has been pretty wild, but it’s not finished just yet. I’ve already begun mental preparations for the insanity of Wednesday’s HARD Philly, headlined by Crystal Castles and Rusko. It should be a great finishing touch on the summer of 2010. The HARD tour…

High five for making it to Friday. The last weekend in July is upon us, which means that in less than a month it will once again be time for the legendary McGill Frosh and all the insanity that comes along with it. Can’t get too excited yet though, we still have a lot to enjoy during the first few weeks of August, including the HARD Tour which will be making stops in New York, Montreal and Philly, among other…

Happy Friday everyone. Seems like this week is dragging on forever, but at long last it’s finally coming to an end today. Hope everyone out there is ready to blow off some steam this weekend, I know I am. Life is a bit hectic right now, so let’s skip the chit-chat and get right to the music. Our first mixtape this week comes from German producer TAI. His July mixtape is comprised of some great tunes, including a few of…

It’s crazy that we’re already well into July, time always seems to fly in the summertime. One plus is that Osheaga is less than two weeks away, so if you’re planning on attending you’re probably pretty excited. In any event, you made it through the weekend, and now you should reward yourself with some good old fashioned laziness. Here are some tunes to help you out. Lazy Eye – Silversun Pickups [Audio clip: click 'read more' to listen/download] Tightrope (feat….

It’s a terribly rainy day down here in Philly, and there’s really no better reason to sit inside and surf the web for new music. Here’s an extra-large helping of remixes to assist you in doing just that. Enjoy! Swoon (Lindstrom and Prins Thomas Remix) – Chemical Brothers [Audio clip: click 'read more' to listen/download] Eyes Wide (Fool’s Gold Remix feat. Aristotle Pop A Bottle) – Local Natives [Audio clip: click 'read more' to listen/download] Daniel (Mt Eden Dubstep) –…

Happy Friday everyone. Since I’ve been home from school, I’ve resumed life as a working man, which means that Fridays are just as important to me during the summer months as they were during the school year. (The fact that Friday is also pay day doesn’t hurt either). So if you’re working all day like me, or even if you’re just relaxing and soaking up some rays by the pool all day every day, I hope this weekend is killer…

Happy Friday everybody. I’d like to start off this week by wishing all of our Canadian readers a Happy (belated) Canada Day, and of course we want to wish all of our fellow Americans a happy Fourth of July weekend. We hope you’ll be partaking in all of the traditional patriotic festivities in the next few days (namely drinking, grilling and shooting off illegal fireworks), but however you choose to celebrate, we hope you have a great time. So kick…

This past Friday kicked off the week and a half of the legendary International Jazz Festival of Montreal, and the city could not be more exuberant. The city is noticeably alive, as the music carrying from Place des Arts seems to have added a bounce in many a step. From my balcony I can hear a mix of smooth bass and blaring trumpet, crooning in my ear that today will not be a lazy day. With Tam-Tams high up on…
