WestsideWax - Old Man Harmonika's Fervent Nighttime Ride (130+ BPM Techno) Posted on: 28.05.2012 by Vicki Catelli My last mix was a fun set, recorded at one of our Basement Therapy sessions, that unfortunately also suffered from poor recording quality. After my mate POA pointed out that it sounded like a Real Audio broadcast from the 90s, I un-lazied myself, ran everything through my handy little Presonus Firebox, and tore through a half-crate's worth of wax in just over an hour.As I've mentioned in the past, I always endeavour to record my studio sets as if I'm playing in front of a 4 a.m. crowd in a big, dark room - if you're looking for headphone music, this ain't it. If, by chance, you have a hankering for raw and dirty, three-turntable shenanigans with which you can do some serious chair dancing, then please, have a listen. Super-fun time tracklist below. Comments, feedback and YEEEE-HAWs!! always welcome. http://soundcloud.com/westsidewax/westsidewax-old-man-harmonikas So...we've been given a evening . A monthly, to be exact. Even more precisely, the 3rd Saturday of every month, in a brand new, 4,000 square foot, 210-capacity, mixed-use concert venue in Toronto's Junction neighbourhood, just outside the downtown proper. Interesting fact - this neck of the woods was bone dry (bereft of alcohol) until 2000. It's been slow to catch up with its evening life, but 3030 (www.3030dundaswest.com) looks to be a gamechanger, and we're more than a little chuffed to be on board. Our little band of musical miscreants also hope to be gamechangers in a city where Techno and House have become largely homegenised, overly-stylised and considerably less fun than when we had a real warehouse scene to support big-room music. Not saying that there's anything wrong with bowing at the altar of Berlin, but when you're only bowing to one specific sound, coming out of a ridiculously diverse artistic metropolis, a lot of people end up not knowing what they're missing. But enough about Germany - we're world citizens, and as such, garner our influence from every corner that produces funky, soulful, jacking, headspinning, bass-heavy tunes. Our core consists of one e.k.g., a.k.a. Giordan Battaglin, our sole controllerist and a stellar photographer to boot, bringing the smooth, melodic Tech...one Trevor "Isporax" Wilkes, who boasts a 6,000+ vinyl collection that includes most of the Dance Mania back catalogue and a whole lotta wonky Techno that will test even the most timid wallflower...and yours truly, falling somewhere in between and not caring whether it came out last week, or 30 years ago. As may be noted by the tracklist, this offering is straight-up Techno. As our evening 's name - Mr. & Mrs. Anything - denotes, you might hear something like this, but then again, you might not. I might drop a set of deep and classic House, to complement a guest DJ, or perhaps something more Electro-tinged, for no better reason than just because. To one degree or another, all the DJs and live PAs we'll be booking in the upcoming months have this capability, and our goal is to draw in all the dancers and music lovers who feel the same way about musical diversity.
