F.A.M.E. Canada - Tonight @ Academy

Vous avez aimé l'électricité produite par la mémorable première édition de F.A.M.E. ?  Les sourires et les moments forts ?  Le pourcentage d'alcool assez efficace versé dans vos drinks par les sympathiques employés de l'Academy ?

C'est l'heure de remettre ça !

On vous propose ce mois-ci un menu fort alléchant pour les amateurs de tech-house avec une fibre patriotique.

Nathan Zahn, de Winnipeg, co-fondateur de Symptom Technologies, vous abreuvera de son torride mélange de techno funky et de tech-house, et Jason Pelletier, d'Ottawa, responsable entre autres des soirées Stay House! et Techcetera, vous achèvera avec sa sélection sensuelle et rythmée.  En ouverture, votre hôte, ami et confident Clifford Brown tentera de vous scotcher à la piste de danse le plus tôt possible.

Donc :

Clifford Brown - 22h @ 12h
Nathan Zahn - 12h @ 1h30
Jason Pelletier - 1h30 @ 3h

Toujours au chic Academy Dancehall, situé au 4445 St-Laurent.

Did you enjoy the electricity that was in the air during the first edition of F.A.M.E. ?  The smiles & good vibes ?  The most excellent alcohol percentage included in your drinks, courtesy of the fine Academy Dancehall employees ?

It's time to do it again !

This month, the menu is patriotic and tasty :

Jason Pelletier, Ottawa's Don of funky house, has been at it seemingly forever.  It's been seven years since he left Montreal to relocate to the nation's capital, where he has steadily been serving his neighbors the best music there is, managing to stay away from the latin house mold that seems to contaminate everybody living there.  A regular at the Stay House! nights, he also is the mindmaster of Spins & Needles, an event mixing music... and knitting.  He also hosts the Techcetera bi-monthly, bringing out-of town guests to Ottawa for a much needed minimal / tech-house dose.  He also is a resident at the Freehouse Saturdays, spinning house, house, baby.

Nathan Zahn has been playing warehouse parties, outdoor raves and various clubs across western Canada since 1996. Also a long time promoter of the music he loves, and one of the founders of Winnipeg's Symptom Technologies production crew, Nathan has been responsible for bringing many of the world's top underground tech-house acts to Manitoba over the past decade.   A truly original performer in the dance music community, Nathan has a passion for mind expanding beats and for late night parties. Nathan is known as a DJ that can make you shake your ass while also making your jaw drop at his mixing skills, working the mixer to maximum effect on every mix.   Not only is he comfortable behind the decks, he also loves to join the crowd dancing the night away. Spinning a mix of funky techno and quirky tech-house Nathan is always looking to the future finding new sounds to keep dance music fresh and exciting.

Clifford Brown, raised in a small industrial town called Shawinigan, has rapidly escaped the small-mindedness of his native land and has been mixing since 2001.  Over the years, he has constantly surfed on a very "electro" sound, widening it to include more and more influences as time goes by.  Now spinning everything from house to electro, from tech to minimal, from funky & soulful to cold & pounding, according to his many moods, he appears at different events all over town, and is the resident & host of the F.A.M.E. monthly @ Academy Dancehall.

As always, it all goes down at Academy Dancehall, located at 4445 St-Laurent.

See you there !
