Hallow!

House-Music-Hump-Day

[She has all the right swagger]

I did it again last night..... Had the best time of my life.
Knowing that an artist as big as this little girl was going to be throwing a party in my city is probably the best feeling in the world.  Miss Maya Jane Coles straight from London, Britain apart of the 'RA Podcasts' family set the tone last night at Wrongbar here in Toronto.  Shoulder to shoulder the whole night made the experience even more uplifting.  This bitch can bring the beat! At most points in the night I felt like I was living one of those classic 90's House concerts where you hear the mellow beat drop and the crowd gives a slight "owwwww" in sync.


Ever hear of a big man named David Tort? Neither have I but apparently he releases sets weekly and most of them are decent enough to listen to.  I usually get limp dick after the first 10 minutes of his stuff, FORTUNATELY his newest set kept me pumpin' the entire time. I promise you wont be upset with this one; dance party the whole way through and through.


I'll just toss this in as a bonus, because I know everyone likes a little Minimal beat once and awhile.  stop lying to yourself when you say you "hate" it because you definitely wont hate this:


ENJOY!

A hopeless place.

"It's like screaming and no one can hear.

You almost feel ashamed that someone could be that important and without them you feel like nothing.
No one will ever understand how much it hurts. 
You feel hopeless, like nothing can save you.
But when its over and its done, you almost wish that you could have all that bad stuff back, so that you could have the good."

House-Music-Hump-day
[all one word]

It's Wednesday, which means it's "hump-day" which means we're closer to the weekend, which means we get to eat the most amount of turkey and pumpkin pie ever! Hollaaaa! I don't know about everyone else but Thanksgiving weekend is my favorite gathering with family and friends throughout the year.  So many food babies are born in celebration of a non-stop buffet line in my kitchen, it's great.  Anyways.. I've decided that I would make Wednesdays the day to post my favorite tracks and sets of the week, despite the other great stuff I post throughout.

Lucky for all you sorry sluts I haven't posted new music in awhile and I'm pretty backed up inside ready to release everywhere.  I'm going to number each introduction and match them to the sets/tracks below.

1. This dude: DJ Leomeo from Paris was in Toronto a couple of weekends ago at Fly Nightclub spinning his greatest house sessions for me, specifically.  Found his SoundCloud profile and went nuts afterwards.  Enjoy his Urban set below..

2. JAMES BARRACLOUGH! Need I say more?  He's finally released his 4th Summer Terrace Mix seeing as we've come to an end with the season and it most definitely tops all the others, I promise.  I can't stop listening to it and neither should you, just promise me you have a decent bass system pumping for this one.

3. I have to give it to this guy, he's been featured in almost all my previous 'Music Mondays' posts from when I contributed to my pal Andrew Charles Edwards II blog: justSTFU.ca and he's one of the best Tech-house DJ's I've ever heard.  Tulpi, hands out a new set every month and his Oktobermix 2011 KILLS IT!

4. Brian Becerra has always been apart of my playlist and I've never had a problem with his work until he released his own introduction mix featuring Björk to Andhim's track Holzceania Drosselschnaps because I literally fell in love with it and him and now I have a problem.  You should also look into 'Andhim' if you like the track.

  1. SET: Urban People - DJ Leomeo
  2. SET: Summer Terrace Mix Vol. 4 - James Barraclough
  3. SET: Oktobermix 2011 - Tulpi
  4. TRACK: Holzceania Drosselschnaps - Brian Becerra
HOLY SHIT I'M DONE! Enjoy these over the next few days, I know I will.  Have a happy thanksgiving weekend everyone and don't forget to dance it out when the turkeys hit the table.

Peacin' Love,

-V
