Night Vision 2.12
I honestly believe I have never seen a weather so shitty in April. It's like bad times happening all over again. Endless winter.
In these circumstances, you'd be forgiven to drink your ass off and indulge in the orgiastic pleasures of life, no ? Grab a pint, grab a flask, grab a tix, and get in. Dance, rinse, repeat.
Oh, and don't overdose on chocolate. You'd better make sure that you look good if you ever eat at mom's on Sunday.
Amen to days off. Don't vade retro, Satanas. Come party with us instead.
*News en Vrac*
May 18th, Toronto's Kenny Glasgow will appear at a special edition of F.A.M.E. in collaboration with Soultek. The man's been rather rare on our shores, and it will be a pleasure to host a night featuring his impressive DJ skills. Anybody remembering how much fun I had, dancing alone in my living room to his Turbo entry "Toronto Mix Sessions", would better head over.
Does it smell like Oxia might be coming to town ? It does.
*05/04*
International DeeJay Gigolo recording artist Richard Bartz, from big bad Germany, will be headlining Parking's Overdose night alongside Mini. He plays live, and he's mad, so beware !
The HeadzUp! Vs F.A.M.E. night unfortunately had to be rescheduled to a later date, in another club. Keep checking this space for some updates, real soon. Hint : Miles Moore's monstruous birthday bash...
At Helm, FancyFhreek takes a break from his Pas-Sages night to spin more minimal tech terrorism on the unsuspecting drinkers. Always a good place to start off the night !
Things promise to be ecclectic - and quite ghetto ! - at Saphir's Mix Thursdays, as Mexico's DJ Sixx is the guest of honor tonight. Also on the bill are Khiasma, and old-schoolers Maysr & Sase One.
At La Sala Rossa, Detroit cold-wavers ADULT. present their new album live. I've seen them live before, they're not the most amazing performers ever, but boy do they rock !
Finally, at Stereo, a special edition of the Energize night brings us New York's royalty, Princess Superstar. She's silky, sexy and slutty, and she just released the third installment of the mixed series "American Gigolo". With Eddy Jasmin opening, this one promises to be for the books !
*06/04*
After a first cancelled gig, DJ Craze & MC Armanni are in town for good tonight, at Academy Dancehall. Craze is known to have inspired A-Trak to take up scratching, and Armanni just finished a world tour MC'ing alongside Goldie. Opening are Corey K, Bind, and Rhys Taylor.
In a seedier part of town, at Ontario street's Alizé that is, the fifth edition of the Citizens monthly, "EcoLogick Village", unfolds. The theme is sharing, medieaval style. And the musical style is breakbeat... mixed with trance ! Talk about wild variety ! Starts at 9, free before 10.
Eresys launches a new monthly residence at l'Appartement, located at 600 William (that's corner of McGill). Things are free tonight just so you get to know the place, and musically we're talking about sets from Sequential Factory, Kasteniede and Yan Parenteau.
If you're like me and enjoy listening to Tim Sweeney's Beats in Space, for the sheer obscurity of the leftfield disco and rare groove that the man & his guests are playing, then you'll appreciate the Loose Joints weekly even more tonight, as they're hosting an italo-disco night. New York's Speculator and Ron Morelli will be in the house to provide you with old school plates, and residents David Shaw, Davey Lahteenmaa and Chris Paré will complement the beats. It's free and it goes down at Le Social, 1445 Bishop.
It's just been brought to my attention that The Joyride at Tokyo is still going strong, and will feature guest Romeo Kardec tonight. So come on down, have a few drinks and sweat !
*07/04*
Baile Montreal promises "all kinds of bass beats" at Zoobizarre as Ottawa's Jokers of the Scene will set the place on fire.
At the yet-to-be-named Café de Lima Microzoo Saturdays, Maus & Nathan Burns share the decks for what promises to be a sweaty night where, hopefully, enough human heat will be produced to make this nasty snow melt away and never come back.
The UK's Trash Fashion stop by Montreal and it all goes down at Academy. Busy lil' place ! These guys are apparently very big in the United Kingdom right now, and if you've heard their latest single, "It's a Rave Dave", you know they don't take themselves very seriously. This is a Nu Ravers on the Block event, so you can expect lots of flashy people and the trashiest pop this side of town, as well as a live set by Toronto's Put the Rifle Down, and DJ sets by Cherry Cola, Mary Hell and my boys Mister Ed and Mister P. Get there early !
Panorama welcomes queen of the night Mightykat, who will share the decks with Bender for what promises to be yet another fine night filled with classic rythms. At Mile End Bar.
*08/04*
Bal en Blanc : Event where people dressed in white are gathering to hear big name DJs. Tickets price ridiculously high, and general relevance in this column near to zero.
If you like blood that feels good on your lips, and music that will make you shake your hips, it's time to head down to Saphir to hear Bliss perform at Beat me Up ! Nobody has to get up the next day, so boogie down, fuckers !
If you still wanna party all night with cool people, at a reasonable price, with quality beats, here's our tip : the Soulmeka Family's loft party ! At 1000 St-Dominique, it goes on from 10 to ...? and features the beatmatching talents of Uzi, B'Ugo, Vincent Lemieux and Bender. It will be hot, and it will be sexy !
*09/04*
Rock n' Wild at Alizé ! Go wild, but fear not, there's no rock, only rockers. This week the guest of honor appears to be Philgood, some kind of wonderful veteran who never disappoints. Word ! 3$ cover.
*10/04*
Very special Thursday at the Academy's Dizzy, as Bender welcomes Marinelli in the family. Monster beats and dancing heads will clash and eventually melt !
At Salon Daomé's Telephunk, Philgood takes care of the decks and believe me, he knows how to ! Have you noticed how gorgeous their new flyer is ?! That makes it the official winner of my "flyer of the week" palm !
*11/04*
Do us all a favor and take a break.
*Next week*
Spring gets here for real ! Tiga fights Tommie Sunshine at Voyeur in a dirty girlfight while Jordan Dare watches disapprovingly ! Your little sister gets pregnant from Superman !
Until then... keep the lock on your bike safely installed.
In these circumstances, you'd be forgiven to drink your ass off and indulge in the orgiastic pleasures of life, no ? Grab a pint, grab a flask, grab a tix, and get in. Dance, rinse, repeat.
