So my last post was about leaving Montreal for greener pastures in Alberta. Aside from the pastures actually being rather yellow, I am doing pretty well so far. I miss being metres away from live DJs and music almost every night of the week, now I am having to drive to out of the way clubs just to get a taste of a little electro.
Now, here is where things get a bit interesting. There is going to be a big show this Friday night. Where is it? Calgary? Edmonton? Red Deer? No way, Airdrie Alberta.

Yes, yes, Yall. The bass heads and tech freaks of Airdrie time to get down. DJ Tell-X has his own brand of DJing, which will no doubt make for an interesting night. He can actually control the video and audio with his tables and mixer. Check the video for a taste:

DJ and VJ wrapped up in one, pretty crafty I must say. So, if you’re in Calgary, I suggest making the trip, if you are in Airdrie, you have no excuse. I know we’re not going to turn Airdrie in to Ibiza after one show, but it’s a start!







Turzi
I am amidst an epic battle of laptop repair and warranty negotiations. I’m posting from an iPhone I stole from a 12yr old…
When someone sends me a promo track with “…out on chocolate coloured 12″ vinyl in October” in the email, I tend to listen.
Turzi‘s home is Record Makers. A label that is also home to Kavinsky & Sébastien Tellier and you can really hear the connection between the three. The Buenos Aires/Bombay EP is haunting and moody. Apparently, there’s an album in the works called “B” which will follow up the previous album “A”. All in all, some tight production, clean sounds, vocoders, dance-dance-dance.
Coming to a city near you!
