It’s been a rough week. was one of Toronto most beloved DJs, a fantastic producer and just an all around great guy. Not a bad bone in his body. His passing is a huge loss for the Toronto scene. Our hearts go out to everyone that is feeling this loss. Rest in peace Joee. ❤️

Dimitri From Paris was INCREDIBLE last night. Most fun music I have heard this year. I honestly feel sorry for anyone that missed it.

Acqua is shaping up to be such an incredible space. It’s hard finding venues that are willing to do events with “our” type of music, let alone ones that fully embrace it. As many saw, behind alienInFlux’s incredible system last night, there was a shiny red brand new house system installed, though it was not yet ready to use. The main room will feature a full Martin Audio sound system, the first of its kind in North America. This is the same sound system that can be found in Ministry of Sound and which has twice won best sound system at the IDMA awards. The system in that room is easily enough to power a space 5 times its size. I’m so excited to hear it when it’s ready.

Hope to see many people out next week forLatmun who is one of our favorite producers ovet the last 6 years or so. Dude has been cranking out non stop groovy bangers with the most incredible baselines. A favorite of not only ours but his music can always be found in the sets of all of your favorite local and international DJs.

Tickets are on sale now and capacity is limited. Trust me when I say don’t sleep on this.

And it’s also Jay Force’s 40th birthday party! 😮🎉
