get physical label tour / the social, toronto / 07/05/08
Another fun night, I've been blessed when it comes to quality music this week. M.A.N.D.Y was amazing. Sweet deep grooving techno mixed with some crowd pleasing dance tracks.

ellen allien + sascha funke / the social, toronto / 05/05/08

Sascha Funke and Ellen Allien were insanely great, creating one of the best nights out since Alex Smoke last December. The night started off with Toronto techno pioneer Kenny Glascow. I connected with him over a party that got busted 10 years ago in Victoria, BC. We all wound up at some mansion in the woods and Kenny saved the night by performing under bizarre circumstances. It was exciting to share a memory that was unforgettable for both of us. Sascha Funke played a great set, while whipping out some old classics that still sound as fresh today as they did years ago. For a Monday, it was a packed house and everyone was dancing. The crowd was so friendly, making an already great night even better with so much positive interaction. I seriously haven't had an experience like this in so long. Ellen Allien finished off the night delivering some great grubby dance-floor tech sounds. I paid the price today at work, but when something is so good, the consequences are worth it.

addicted to basic_sounds...
Congratulations to Betül Arýk from Istanbul, Turkey for winning the basic_sounds "help spread the word" photo competition.
She was selected by the judges for her clever concept of being addicted to basic_sounds. She also did a great job at spreading the word by targeting the Istanbul club district.
I'd also like to thank everyone who participated in the basic_sounds "help spread the word" photo contest. It's been a great honour to connect with so many talented people from all over the world. There were so many great photos, it was really hard to decide. I wish I had more prizes to give out.
Thanks again! It's been a lot of fun.
