Andrew Luce is highly regarded for his ability craft bangers. After making a name for himself off a long list of remixes, Luce has been branching out and his latest work ‘Loyalty,’ pushes things even further. From the gripping strings, to the Marilyn Monroe vocal sample, it packs a sombre yet moving feel. This isn’t the turn up at the…

BC bred producer and DJ Ekali took the industry by storm in 2016. Closing the year off strong, Ekali took his Autumn tour across North America. On Friday, he touched down in Toronto alongside Electric Mantis. The can’t miss show saw Velvet Underground set on fire. I rolled in just after 11:30. After heading downstairs to coat check, I made…

Big Wild’s powerful anthem ‘Invincible’ has just been reborn with a new visual and a pack of reworks. Seeing flips from Manila Killa, Point Point and J.Phlip the song takes on a few new lives. Manila Killa increases the intensity, moving away from his future pop stylings to take on a more vicious approach. Meanwhile, Point Point slows things down,…

Last week we had the honour of connecting with up-and-coming production duo PURGE. Along with the interview, they blessed us with an incredible guest mix, riddled with heaters and unreleased tunes. One of the clear standouts was a raw monster featuring pitched down vocals, pounding drums and some filthy sound design. Thankfully it wasn’t destined to remain unreleased for long…

In case you’ve been sleeping, PURGE have been taking over the back end of 2016. After bursting onto the scene with their incredible debut Feel Your Love EP, they proved their consistency with singles ‘Die Tonight,’ ‘HEART,’ and ‘Holding On’. In just a few months they’ve gone from unknowns, to one of the most promising production duos out. Their ability to…

Lil Texas has been on a hot streak as of late, starting with ‘Without You’ and keeping it going with his rework of ‘Shadow Dancing’. Texas proves he’s still cooking up heat with his latest release ‘Private Yacht’. Connecting with Yung Satan, the two craft a dream club record that exudes decadence. This is hazy memories of two-stepping through kush…

Milwaukee producer, Chris Siegel, has been a favourite of ours for a minute. Ever since he made waves with ‘Jersey,’ we’ve been keeping a keen ear out for his tunes. Today Chris reconnects with Siren (‘This Is How’) for a rework of Chance The Rapper’s ‘Fuck You Tahm Bout’. Sonically the rework is a complete 180. In place of the…

As UZ gears up for the release of his Magellan Remix EP, he just let off another rework to build some hype. Newcomer UNKWN absolutely slaughters ‘Cavern.’ It’s the type of track that knocks you over, makes you stop whatever it is you’re doing and simply marvel at its exceptionability. Even with the “turn up when the bass drop” vocal…

Since re-branding from XVII to Vincent, the LA producer’s sound has moved away from the heavy trap influence he built his name upon, to a more emotional and moving direction. With the release of ‘Alpha,’ Vincent finds the perfect sweet spot between his early sound and his new direction. From the intro you’d expect a more downtempo and moving affair.…

Toronto’s DW Waterson (a.k.a. hey! dw) is quite the busy woman. On top of being a drummer, DJ, and producer, she’s also the creator and director of That’s My DJ, a fast-paced and visually stunning web series about the trials and tribulations of a party promoter in Toronto. We caught up with her between all this madness to talk about…
