Yeah. I felt like I was overdue for a new Tech House mix, but almost as soon as I set out to do one, I felt like I wanted it to be very Housey and not Techy. So, after a few weeks of track research and mix planning, here it is. I decided to make it the second [ READ MORE ]
A couple of months ago, I was offered to do an ambient set on my friend Jeff Prémont’s radio show, in Quebec City, but for some reason, things didn’t pan out. Nonetheless, I thought recording an ambient mix was a good idea. While preparing that set I’ve titled Headspace, I decided I also wanted to record another [ READ MORE ]
Yes yes yes, boys and girls, it is finally here! I was itching and scratching to get a new Cosmix iteration out since my set at Picnik Electronik (which was basically Cosmix vol. 3.5) and the ensuing Cosmix vol. 4, last August. It took a while to put it together and find its groove — I do [ READ MORE ]
Actually, it was on 01-01-2010, since I played from 2:30 to 4 a.m., but here’s the recording of the exclusive Drum n’ Bass set I played at that event earlier this week. I meant to record the set live, but forgot to hit the record button at the beginning of the set, so the actual live [ READ MORE ]
For my birthday, I’m the one giving y’all a gift! Again, here’s a mix born out of an intense bout of inspiration. From the initial idea to the completion of the recording session, this mix took me about 12 hours, which really isn’t long compared to the usual gestation time I need for a new mix, and [ READ MORE ]
Yes, boys and girls, bipeds, quadrupeds and dodecapeds! The new installment of the Cosmix series has landed! It has been gestating since… well, since I released the previous installment of the Cosmix series! Get your space helmets on, cadets, because I pulled all the stops on this one: it doesn’t attempt to please anyone or anything but [ READ MORE ]
Well, not really live… It was hot as hell that Sunday and I was afraid my laptop might overheat from the requirements of running Torq AND recording the set, so I forgot about the idea of recording it live on the spot. So, I re-recorded the set today in the cool of my basement studio, and here [ READ MORE ]
New mix? Apparently, yeah! It came out of nowhere… I mean, usually, I set out and plan to make a new mix, but with this one, I wasn’t planning it — at least not in this style — for yet another little while. However, some time last week, I just HAD to start tinkering with my decks and, well, [ READ MORE ]
Here it is, my new Tech/House mix is ready! It’s a rather short affair, by me standards, at 1h46 minutes, but it’s banging and straight to the point. Fear not, the ever present wink at my musical roots are sprinkled throughout. I truly hope y’all enjoy it because after giving it a good listen with detached ears [ READ MORE ]
Here it is, after many months in the making: my mix of 80’s favourites! Do not expect to hear your ordinary 80’s electro-pop fodder here. I had to make hard decisions in choosing which tracks to include on this mix, but they represent a very essential selection of artists and especially tracks that were key to [ READ MORE ]
