Reflexiones desde Satori. "La Sociedad del Reto". Part 1 ¡Hola terrícolas! Nuevo espacio, “Reflexiones desde Satori”. Ampliamos nuestras mentes desde dos prismas infinitos. Espacio reflexivo, también musical. Jose Satori y Javi feel. Solo apto para mentes abiertas. El episodio de hoy. "La Sociedad del Reto". Part 1 Más que el amor, el dinero o la fama, deseo la verdad. Me senté a una mesa donde había manjares exquisitos y vino en abundancia, rodeado de comensales obsequiosos, pero carente de verdad y sinceridad. Me alejé de esa mesa inhóspita sintiendo todavía hambre. La hospitalidad era tan fría como el hielo. Henry David Thoreau. Hoy flotaremos con… Rob Dougan, Nick Cave & Warren Ellis, entre otros y otras… Lista de temas https://tofeelmore.com/tofeelmore-podcast-musical-flotante-reflexiones-desde-satori-la-sociedad-del-reto-part-1/ ¡Un abrazo desde la tierra!

Ep#4 in our travel series features actors Rose Burn and Will Arnett in "Come Say G'day." It's a lesson in how to freshen brand codes without changing them.  We're joined by CMO Susan Coghill and Executive Strategy Lead, Rob Dougan.  Thanks to Kantar for sponsoring this series.

In today's discussion, we explore how the world of data and the world of creativity can come together to create campaigns that almost pinpoint the desires of their target audience using the power of data points. We look at how this relationship between data and creativity evolves across both agencies and brands.  Hosted by Pippa Chambers, editor The Growth Agenda Featuring:  Alex Wright, head of content at Catch Rob Dougan, EGM for strategy and research at Tourism Australia Simon Brock, executive creative director and GM of Digitas See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rob Dougan is the Executive General Manager - Strategy and Research at Tourism Australia. In his role with TA, Rob is tasked with setting the organisation's objectives, devising strategies to help achieve them, and ensuring that Tourism Australia and the tourism industry have the right data to make those decisions and understand their impacts.In today's episode, Destination Southern Tasmania's Alex Heroys racks Rob's data- and trends-centric mind for his take on the recovery of inbound international tourism to Australia and, specifically, Tasmania. While lingering resistance to long-haul flights and economic factors continue to impact how many international tourists we're seeing arrive into Tassie, there's plenty of good news for our state in terms of its competitiveness with other destinations. In Rob's words, we're perfectly poised with a suite of high-quality products that appeal to a high-yielding market that's willing to travel and - perhaps more importantly - willing to spend good money on great experiences that celebrate people, product and place. Rob also unpacks our closest competitors and the key advantages we must flex in order to increase our share, new and emerging inbound markets, and the post-Covid recovery of the all-important China market. Finally, he provides an update on 2018's Restaurant Australia campaign, and how important it is that we continue to sell brand Tasmania to an international market. Today's episode is brought to you by our partner, Tourism Australia. Tourism Australia is the Australian Government agency responsible for attracting international visitors to Australia, both for leisure and business events. The organisation is active in 15 key markets and activities include advertising, PR and media programs, trade shows and industry programs, consumer promotions, online communications and consumer research. Thanks to Tourism Australia for their generous support of TICT and for helping to make this episode of Talking Tourism possible.

Slightly Open ｜45 (SO x 余晨) 预测未来最好的方式是创造未来欢迎关注Slightly Open。这是三位女性的一个小型谈话节目，薇薇，Coco（@Wang蔻蔻）和老柴（@老柴）。本期摘要：史上最烧脑、书单最长的一期SO诞生了！余晨——易宝支付联合创始人、 思想者、科学普及者，一个热爱读书并好奇心炽热的人。这一晚，我们试图像爱因斯坦那样仰望头顶的星空。我们看到的世界是真实的吗？ 爱因斯坦一生追求一种永恒不变的确定性，宇宙运行的终极规律。这样的规律是否存在？生命的意义感来自何处？余晨谈到《黑客帝国》引发的终极追问，柏拉图的洞穴之喻是西方哲学两千年来的终极问题。选择红药丸还是蓝药丸？选择生活在一个真实而痛苦的世界，还是一个虚假而幸福的世界？真相与快乐哪个更重要？什么是现代社会的启蒙？ 在科学发现告诉我们这个世界本没有意义的情况下，如何重新定义人生的意义? 启蒙最重要的理念是科学与理性。把未来变成自我应验的预言(self-fulfilling prophecy)。预测未来最好的方式就是创造未来。我们对未来唯一负责的方式，就是把它变成你想要的样子。尽管在遥远的未来，一切意义终将湮灭于热寂。但是在有意义的、可见的未来，这是我们唯一能做的事。开篇余晨是谁？介绍余晨是一件有点困难的事，他是一个特别的存在： 易宝支付联合创始人、 读书人、思想者、商业世界里的人文主义者与科学普及者，一个好奇之心炽热的人。03:18 什么样的知识才是好知识？三通的知识：通文理、通东西，通古今。05:35 王强老师前不久谈到的人类的思维结构：商业思维、技术思维、科学思维与人文思维，怎样打通不同的思维结构？保持好奇心，静下心来读经典，屏蔽碎片化的信息噪音。09:20 学习知识的动力是什么? 知识本身就是目的，是让内心深处平静下来的避风港。11:27 作为一个计算机专业的理科生，如何能做到高质量的知识输出表达？如何看待自己科普媒体人的属性？把知识传播给别人是最好的学习方式；帮助更多的人去掌握知识是有成就感的一件事。21:30 真正的大师是跨界通才。有一本书叫《创新者The Innovators》，一部数字技术革命的史诗。开篇与结尾都是同一个人， Ada Byron(埃达-洛夫莱斯伯爵夫人)。这位生活在150年前的女性被认为是历史上第一个程序员。 那时候没有计算机，她怎么写程序？她是数学家，完全从算法的角度写，从逻辑的角度写。埃达还有另外一个身份是英国浪漫主义诗人拜伦的女儿，她提出了一个概念叫“诗意科技”，设想未来的计算机不只是用来计算的，还可以用来写诗，用来作画，写音乐，帮助人去创造。我们今天看到的计算机就是这样，印证了埃达150多年前的对“诗意科技”的想象。28:50 科技与人文的结合是感性和理性的结合吗？ 现代社会的一个特征是工具理性。在 古希腊，理性不仅仅具有工具性，而是具备终极的价值性，是一种信仰。在柏拉图看来，通过理性才能与神合二为一，追求到终极的真理，获得不朽。30:00 人活着的终极意义是什么？用温伯格的话来讲，通过科学我们知道的越多，这个世界越没有意义。34:45 什么是现代社会的启蒙？ 在科学告诉我们这个世界本没有意义的情况下，如何重新找到人生的意义? 这是一个启蒙的过程。启蒙最重要的一个理念是理性的作用。人与人之间，价值可能不重叠，顶线(Topline)可以百花齐放， 但是地球是平的还是圆的这种底线(bottom-line)问题，所有人要有一个共同的基准。唯有依靠科学与理性才能让我们对最基本的问题达成共识，并在这个共识的基础上，支持一个理想的多元化的社会，一个文明的现代社会。 认为世界上无所谓对错，都是利益之争，没有所谓的正义和正当性，是缺乏思考的一种懒惰。47:30 大陆法跟英美法系，即哲学层面的理性主义和经验主义，哪一个更好？相信创世论还是进化论？进化论是非常messy的，生物的进化没有目的，很多物种都不完美。50:35 历史是进步的吗？是不断被改良的吗？ 斯蒂文平克《当下的启蒙》。 如果有伊甸园，它一定存在于未来。54:50 我们看到的世界是真实的吗？“我没有办法证明这个世界是真实，但是我相信它是真实的，接受这个世界是真实的“。这不是一个逻辑判断，而是一个理性判断。逻辑跟理性的区别——逻辑是严丝合缝的，像数学题一样被推衍出来；理性是，有些东西没有证据，超越合理怀疑（beyond reasonable doubt）。如同罗素的茶壶。这个世界是不是真实的？ 它是一个 概然（probable）的推论，不是个必然（necessary）的推论。57:25 选择红药丸还是蓝药丸？ “一个不快乐的苏格拉底，好过一个快乐的蠢汉“。59:40 第一次看《黑客帝国》排山倒海的感受。 一些西方大学把这部电影当做《哲学导论》入门课必讲的故事。《黑客帝国》引发的最根本的关于真实性的问题，恰恰是西方哲学2000年以来的终极问题，什么是真实？我们如何知道这个世界是真实存在的，我们怎么相信自己的知识是可靠的？1:11:45真相与快乐哪个更重要？我们选择生活在幸福最大化的“体验机器”里，还是生活在一个痛苦的真实世界里？映射到道德哲学层面的讨论，就是功利主义跟道义论（Deontology）之间的对立。 选择生活在一个真实跟痛苦的世界里面，还是选择一个虚假而幸福的世界，这也是一个终极的问题。1:12:14《 黑客帝国》的政治主张。资本市场巨大机器的裹挟，《黑客帝国》里被AI制造出来的幻觉世界，在真实的世界里人类是被泡在营养液里的用来发电的电池。 马尔库塞《单向度的人》，技术与资本对人的异化。1:19:30电影里最大的潜台词是导演对自身性别认同的解放。化茧为蝶。人的性别取向不应该被囚禁在肉身里面，肉身就像黑客帝国里的母体，人有追求自己性别认同的自由。什么才是真正的自由？当今消费社会带来的挑战，我们的选择似乎越来越多，然而面对这种选择的自由，大多数人的选择是从众，而不是拿出勇气与悟性去选择真正的自由。1:24:30 读了那么多书，能否就过好这一生？ 天地不仁，以万物为刍狗。1:26:23 爱因斯坦追求永恒不变的确定性，表象背后的真理，宇宙的运行的终极规律。这样的规律存在吗？物理学的本质是一个追求不变性跟对称性的学科。爱因斯坦的初衷是把相对论叫做不变性理论，相对只是一个表象，不变才是背后的本质。 “变化的表象的背后是不变的对本质的追求“。1:32:35 爱因斯坦《我的世界观》——头顶的星空才是最有意义。从科学跟物理学的意义上来讲，这个世界本来没有意义。生命的意义的锚点建立在一个更永恒更长久的事物上。 幸福感跟意义感来自于与对某种永恒未知的追求，它取之不尽。星空永远存在，因此爱因斯坦永远不会感到失落。1:34:40 宗教丧失了它的字面意义，但并未丧失它的象征意义。如果流落在一个荒岛上只能带三本书，会带哪三本？1:36:45 余晨的推荐书单：斯蒂文平克的《当下的启蒙》、重新拾起宏大叙事的《时间地图》 。1:41:00 余晨推荐的电影——《少年派》1:42:50 如何看待未来？ 如果你看得足够远，一切终将走向热寂。在可见的未来，我们能做的事就是“审慎乐观”，把未来变成自我应验的预言(self-fulfilling prophecy)。预测未来最好的方式就是创造未来，因为人有自由意志。我们对未来唯一负责的方式，就是把它变成你想要的样子，虽然不见得成功，而且在长远的未来一切都是没有意义的。但是在有意义的、可见的未来，这是我们唯一能做的事。本期书籍（史上最长）：余晨《看见未来》余晨《元宇宙通证》罗素《罗素自传》Walter Isaacson《创新者》斯蒂文-平克《当下的启蒙》斯蒂文-平克《人性中的善良天使》马尔库塞《单向度的人》鲍德里亚《拟像与仿真》爱因斯坦《我的世界观》大卫·克里斯蒂安《时间地图》卢梭《爱弥儿》鲁宾逊-克鲁索《鲁滨逊漂流记》本期电影:《黑客帝国》《少年派》本期音乐Matrix OST Rob Dougan

En el año 1999 se estreno la primera película de la trilogía de Matrix, un film que cambió el cine, la ciencia ficción, la moda, internet y dio la bienvenida al siglo XXI. Dicha cinta salió a la luz cuando el mundo se encontraba en la cúspide de la revolución de internet, y en vísperas del nuevo milenio, aprovechó el desarrollo tecnológico de la época, y planteó preguntas trascendentales sobre la web, la conciencia y el control social. Hoy, recordando que hace pocos días se estrenó la cuarta entrega de esta saga, Matrix Resurrections, 18 años después del final de la trilogía original, escucharemos "Clubbed to Death" composición instrumental del productor musical australiano Rob Dougan, originalmente lanzada en 1995 y que fue incluída en la opera prima de esta cinta.

Finally! RvT has returned...TO THE MATRIX!!!! If you've listened to at least one of our episodes, you know that we are GIGANTIC Matrix fans! The guys delve into the Matrix teaser / trailer so deep you may need to take a red pill just so your friends and family can pinpoint you! We also touch on one or two real life issues, but seriously....we go HARD on cyberpunk goodness in this one. Join us and enjoy our song of the week: "Chateau" by Rob Dougan (of course!).

Thank goodness you've tuned in! We were worried you melted away in the latest heat wave. Pull up a nice tall glass of Pav and E and enjoy our cooling banter. First, after a brief discussion of Goose from the movie "Top Gun" (as is the style of our current times), we tackle the protests in Cuba and pledge our support for justice and equity. We then segway into the season finale of "Loki" on Disney+ and do a brief synopsis of "Black Widow". Along the way we try to convince Pavel to get a mohawk...if you'd like to see him do so, drop us a line at robotsvstaxes@gmail.com. If we get 10 requests then he'll have no choice but to do it!!! Also check out our song of the week: "Open Sore" by Rob Dougan

Welcome to Showcasing House Music DJ Mixes by dattrax!! 'Electric City' is a tribute to the city we love and where we fell in love with house music, Toronto. A tribute to it's community of house music DJs, producers, promoters, club owners, everyone involved and the all the party people/ the dancers (included those of us who can't dance but love to ;)This is a tribute to the house we got into, grew into, grew up in and fell in love with each time we heard these tracks. A huge hi-five, hug and thank you to all the singers, producers and DJs that made and played these tracks!!'Classic House' is a shifting definition... just depends on when you got into house and when those first 5-6 formative years were for you. For us tracks made in 1985-1996 are considered 'classic' but we started partying in 1990 and from 1990-1996 we were privileged to have heard and danced to the earlier tracks.For 'Electric City', I wanted to go for the 'what old is new again' intent, so it's not entirely a classic house mix because it contains some instrumental tracks that were created past '96 and I included covers and remixes of classics that had the same feel, had great sound quality and didn't care when those were actually produced. For the regular classics, sound quality was paramount also, but had to make exceptions for "Move" and "Music Take Me Up" because they are such wicked tracks (were my poor attempts at transferring my vinyl to digital). I'm sorry but on "Emotions Electric" was a CD version I bought at Sam The Record Man (sadly not in biz anymore)... back to my apology, I cranked the bass too much so...Over 5yrs ago, I wasted almost two months in the cracks of time between work and family recording a crate and a half (150 records) into my computer. Realised afterwards that because I had a crappy sound card the digitized tracks were flat sounding). After that Jim and I just started buying classics on beatport, traxsource, itunes and defected and probably 90% of the time the sound quality was excellent.Got a few classic tracks from friends like Eric Ling, Gene King, Devon Wills and Tyrone Solomon. Then Roberto Pinto told me about Discogs and all my classic house vinyl dreams are gonna coming true. We keep saying but bears repeating: "This is the best time for house music. Period!"As always, we hope you enjoy this mix and that it gives you that house feeling from head to toe. (If you were so inclined, then please donate any amount you'd like to with the paypal button to the right side of this site. We've had two donations in the last four years of operating this site, but hoping to set a record this year & you can be a part of that;)---------------Listed are the 42 tracks in order and a few sentences about each: (Really want to give you a little history of our early journey):cover by FCL- "It's You" (2012) Original (1986) "It's You" by E.S.P. Love this acapella cover!! Thought this would be a great start to this mix. Don't have a good quality version of the original.A Guy Called Gerald- "Emotions Electric" (1988) DJ AKI from the warehouse days made me love this track, it's so beautiful. Bought it on CD many years ago and always wanted to put it on a mix.Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)/ Coral Way Chiefs *moniker- "Release Myself" (1992) First heard this at a warehouse party on Spadina Ave, south of Dundas St in Toronto's main downtown Chinatown. It was at a "PTS" party!! Peter, Tyrone & Shams dominated warehouse parties for a few summers. Tightest house djs. Shams actually played this track off of reel to reel!!!!!!!!!! Mixing from reel to reel to vinyl turntables- BADASS!!Bobby Konders- "The Poem" (1990) Jim & I first head this at 'RPM All Ages Sundays' DJ'ed by Matt C. Jim flipped out and bought his first house records the next day. Think we met weeks later both stomping like maniacs at the speaker bins. We were 16 and were like: "WHAT THE HECK IS THIS STUFF!! THIS MUSIC IS WICKED!!!"Satoshi Tomiie- "And I Loved You" feat. vocals by Arnold Jarvis (1990) This was a record from my very 1st record purchases. It was summer time and I walked into a record store on Yonge St., downtown called "Carnival" and met Tyrone Solomon (of PTS fame!). Nicest guy and bought Shades of Black's "SHADOWS" EP on some label called 'Intrigue', I think. Can't imagine how many times I've heard this beautiful record and at countless parties.cover by Phonique- "Feel What You Want" feat. vocals by Rebecca (2012) Original (1994) by Rob Dougan & Rollo Armstrong & Kristine W (also featuring her vocals) Jim bought doubles of the original Kristine W. We were crammed into his bedroom when he 1st played it for me- I FLIPPED OUT!! Jim loved phasing doubles and then playing them purposely slightly off beat- sounded wicked!! Now you can do it with a 'delay' effects button. He made a mix on cassette tape, then we went downtown looking for a warehouse party. Love this cover done by Phonique and Rebecca, they keep the original feel but brought a freshness to this timeless vocal track.M.A.W.- "I Can't Get No Sleep" remixed by David Morales (1995) First time I heard this was at a warehouse party near Wellesley St., around 6am, after working nightshift at 7West Cafe. Vince Ailey's friend was DJing. Can't remember his name but was a towering spanish guy, great guy. The way he expertly slowly drifted these two minutes of drum intro into the last song. I was dancing non-stop and when that India vocal came in- WOW!!Tommy Musto- "Take Some Time Out" feat. vocals by Arnold Jarvis (1987) This vocal still gives me goosebumps!! Was a fav at many warehouse jams!remixed by Bush II Bush- "You're Gonna Miss Me" (2007) Original by Turntable Orchestra ‎– "You're Gonna Miss Me" (1988) Love the original the best but don't have a clean, good quality digital copy and my vinyl's all scratched up. This is a really good remix bringing modern day tight, bright sounds to this classic vocal.Bang The Party- "Bang-Bang You're Mine" (1990) First time I heard this was at my pal, Moses' house, we were wrecked and he was mixing this and Fingers Inc tracks. We were all 16yrs old and couldn't believe this house music stuff!!cover by Xakosa- "Miss Me" feat. vocals by Kenny Thomas (2013) Original by Turntable Orchestra ‎– "You're Gonna Miss Me" (1988) This is such a good cover with a jackin' beat, had to include also even though played another version already. Back in the day, DJs like AKI and PTS would tease you by playing parts of a track, 5-6 times during the night- just a sliver, a few beats each time, just enough of a hook. That's how they broke tracks! By the 5th time, everyone was so excited that the whole room was bouncing with hands in the air!Bobby D'Ambrosio‎– "Moment Of My Life" feat. vocals by Michelle Weeks (1997) ‎ This is one of the most uplifting vocal house tracks out there! Michelle Weeks baby!! Man, there are probably 250 classic house tracks I'd love to put in mixes if I only had clean digital versions. One can dream.M.A.W.- "I Get Lifted" feat. vocals by Barbara Tucker remixed by John Ciafone (1994) Don't know a house dj worth his salt that doesn't have two dozen Masters At Work vinyl records. Priceless track. Feelin' this?Masters At Work or M.A.W.(Little Louie Vega & Kenny Dope Gonzalez)- "I Can't Get No Sleep" feat. vocals by India (1993) Had to include the original. First time we heard this was years before that David Morales remix played earlier. We were at "Kat Klub", just south west of Church St & Queen St E. Kevin Williams, rubbed the celophone cover off of the record on his jeans and SLAMMED this down. He could MIX!! Kevin was actually the first LIVE house DJ i had heard at 16 at "GO GO's", in the 'White Room' on Richmond St & Duncan. He BURNED through records with fast change ups. At the end of the night, Jason Palma said there was a STACK of records in a pile beside him OUTSIDE of their sleeves!! He mixes with a frenzy! Jason told that story and I felt it on the dance floor but wasn't privy to the DJ booth ; ) I got in with my cousin's 21yr old ID, I guess since every Chinese guy at that time looked the same ; ) Great for me!Thompson & Lenoir (LNR)- "Can't Stop The House" (1987) LNR, same guys that made the warehouse classic "Work It To The Bone"!! Wish I had a clean copy of that! First time Jim and I heard this was at 616 Yonge St., around Wellesley. When AKI threw this down, we almost put our fists through the wall it was that exciting!! FLIPPED OUT! That's HOUSE MUSIC. ‎Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)/ Liberty City *moniker– "Some Lovin'" (1992) I loved this track so much that for a whole summer, every warehouse I went to, I 'requested' this track. Drove AKI and the rest nuts. But this vocal was SOOOOOOO DIRTY!!! That MURK feel, those baselines!! Then we saw Liberty City perform it live at The OZ on Mercer St.Jestofunk-"Stellar Funk" remixed by Lazzaro (1997) This congo instrumental I played the crap out of back in the vinyl days, mixed it with dozens of different vocals. My personal policy is NEVER REPEAT a combo and it's brought joy to every situation. Great track!!Joe Smooth- "The Promised Land" feat. vocals by Anthony Thomas (1987) What this track does to you is HOUSE MUSIC. Beautiful in every way. Can listen to this and have listened to this OVER AND OVER AGAIN.Instrumental mix by M.A.W. (date?) M.A.W.-River Ocean‎– "Love & Happiness" (Yemaya Y Ochún) feat. vocals by India (1994) Jim bought doubles of this also and he played the crap out of it! Like a great dessert that's good with EVERY meal. Tracks like this make mixing so much fun because each new combo is a rebirth in emotions.Inner City- "Big Fun" (1988) was when original by Kevin Saunderson was made, but this remix was made in (2003) by Juan Atkins First time I heard this was at Focus on Joseph St around Wellesley. Nope not the 'Focus' at City Hall, that was before my time. Play a few bars and people go MENTAL on the dancefloor! Infectious.dub mix remixed by Soul Clap Raze- "Break 4 Love" (2011) vocal mix remixed by Soul Clap Raze- "Break 4 Love" (2011) Original (1988) Raze- "Break 4 Love" feat. vocals by Keith Thompson I LOVE EVERY VERSION of the original also, the full vocal, the instrumental bringing out this timeless baseline and the spanish female vocal version. Jim bought these remixes and I just lost it. Can't believe Soul Clap got the original vocal by Keith Thompson. They keep the original sounds but brought it to the current times. Like the beginning of the dub and didn't like the beginning of the vocal, so I mixed them together. The original is the best but will have to save for another time.remixed by Michel Cleis 'Floreo'(2010) original M.A.W.-River Ocean‎– "Love & Happiness" (Yemaya Y Ochún) feat. vocals by India (1994) Jim had double records of this original MAW vocal! This remix revived this track for us!Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)- "Tried So Hard" feat. vocals by Bobby Pruit (1993) This track reminds me of one of the 1st time I met Vince Ailey, a great Toronto House DJ & producer but back then he was one of the BADDEST dancers! And not that hip-hop dancing to house music crap, real house dancing. We were at a PTS party on Duncan, south of Richmond. The ceilings were low and sweat was dripping off it. That was nasty, but the MUSIC was so addictive, no one left till after 5am!!Kerri Chandler & Johnny McDougald- "Something Wrong" (1992) Killer track! Chandler is a brick layer, this is a foundation dub. New house lovers are gonna say "WTF??!!" Jim and I often wonder when we hear a wicked track.. 'how did they come up with this track? the ideas? the sounds?' We should start producing so we can make someone else think that. Hopefully soon...Fingers Inc. (Larry Heard, Ron Wilson & Robert Owens) ‎– "Music Take Me Up" feat. vocals by Robert Owens (1985) My first exposure to house in a serious way was Fingers tracks, think over a dozen like 'So Glad', 'What About This Love', 'Distant Planet', 'A Path', 'Mysteries of Love, 'Can You Feel It' and the list is endless. Tracks got attention those days. We burned the grooves off these records!!Mondo Grosso- "Souffles H" remixed by M.A.W. (1995) How many MAW tracks in this mix?? Little Louie Vega & Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez are so sick!! How many house tracks copied their swing? Standing on the shoulders of Giants! Let it grow!!remixed by Tricky Disco- "Tricky Disco" (1990) Love this sexy sax mix! Didn't like this track till it wasn't being played any longer.Jaydee- "Plastic Dreams" (1992) This is an anthem with killer keys!!original M.A.W. & Lem Springsteen- "Nite Life" feat. vocals by Kim English (1994) remixed by Armand Van Helden (1994) Love this vocal!! All our fav house djs in the past played this track. Can't stop dancing to this.Blaze- "So Special" (1990) This was one of my first records and has so many great memories attached to it.Eddie Lewis & Kerri Chandler- "I Need You" feat. vocals by Kamar (1993) Nothing like seeing a smokey dark room with over a hundred people with hands in the air and singing along! House Karaoke!!Cajmere- "Brighter Days" feat. vocals by Dajae (1992) remixed by Karizma & DJ Spen (2011) Karizma smashed it with this remix!! He kept all the original elements and turbo boosted the thump of this gorgeous vocal!Dodha & DJ Spen- "Inrowd" (2013) This is not a classic instrumental but reminded me of the old days with it's feel and sound. Actually reminded me of Mateo & Matos' track "Raw Elements", gotta get that vinyl on Discogs!original Jay Williams, Nelson Roman & Rob Hanning- "Sweat" feat. vocals by Jay Williams (1990) JoJoFlores-Rmx (1999?) 'Sweat' reminds me of this club in North York, just outside of Toronto, but now part of the GTA (Greater Toronto Area). "Inner City" was a wicked club and one of the first to play house. And the dancers there were incredible!! It was that time when everyone got tailored dress pants made and they all had slight to ridiculous bell bottoms. But it seemed so cool at the time watching these guys dance. Jay Williams' vocals on this are legendary and JoJo made this killer remix that made this vocal alive again!Martin Solveig- "Afro Deep" (1999) This is not a classic track but I played the crap out of this congo instrumental. The house feel can be expressed in limitless ways.original Show Me Love feat. vocals by Robin S (1993) remixed by Steve Angello & Laidback Luke (2008) Jim played this remix for the first time at a party a few years ago and EVERYONE went bananas at a certain part near the beginning. You'll definitely KNOW when you FEEL it.Nightmares On Wax- "Aftermath" (1990) This reminds me of a dance my friends DJ'ed at at Jarvis Collegiate near Wellesley. That was a party and we were all into HOUSE and danced like crazy. My friend, Noel Nanton (AN INCREDIBLE HOUSE DJ & PRODUCER), got me into house at 16 and took me to go see Kevin Williams at GO-GO's and some friends had great friends at Jarvis Collegiate and we bonded with tons of house music.Scotti Deep/ Fathoms N.Y. *moniker- "Braniak" (1995) Jim and I went BONKERS when we heard this for the 1st time at a warehouse party. Think it was at the 4th and 5th on Richmond St. It was such a raw and techy bouncy charger!original Romanthony- "Bring U Up" (1995) remixed by Deetron (2011) I don't know how many Romanthony records we own but he made some great ones. God Rest his Soul. This remix by DeeTron brought this track back to the current state of affairs. Love remixes of classics that preserve the feel but make it fresh with higher quality of sounds.Fingers Inc.- "Bring Down The Walls" feat. vocals by Robert Owens (1986) Bought this digital copy from iTunes. Got every Fingers vinyl! This got so played out it almost sounded commercial. But for those who haven't heard it for years or for the first time- WATCH OUT.John Rocco- "Move" (1987) I first heard this at Jim's house, this was when FreeStyle + House was the sound. We got into it probably by '95. Best memory of this track live was when Kenny Glasgow, now famous 1/2 of Art Department, dropped this right from the beginning at The Wellington, on Wellington, south of Spadina & King St. Toronto history. Killer thumpin' intro. I never mix this track cause I want to hear that beginning.---------------Reach out to us and comment.

Episode 22 – in our Season 2 finale, Devin Clark (see Episode 6 – The Great Emu War of 1932) returns to the podcast! Recorded virtually from the midst of the great 2020 lockdown, Erik and Devin dive into the history of hackers: everything from John “Captain Crunch” Draper to the Stuxnet Virus, and even the infamous Carbanak Digital Heist!   Music and Audio Clips from: “Tron: Legacy” – ‘Son of Flynn’ by Daft Punk (2010), “NCIS” (2003), “The Matrix” – ‘Clubbed to Death’ by Rob Dougan (1999), “Hackers” (1995), “Aliens” (1986), “Weird Science” (1985), “War Games” (1983)

During these sweltering days of summer, cool off with a movie face off that's too cool for most critics. This week we pit "Good Time" which is directed by Benny Safdie and Josh Safdie, versus anime classic "Ninja Scroll" directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri. Along the way we get sidelined with an imaginary cameo by Chris Hansen of "To Catch a Predator" fame...and it fits PERFECTLY! Come along and discover that these two films actually have far more in common than you may realize. All this, plus our Song of the Week: "There's Only Me" by Rob Dougan

There are angry people out there. People who are angry at the world, who don't want to live in it, who want a way out. But there are also people out there that have been put on this serious earth to help people who feel that way.... I call em, Furious Angels. I think Rob Dougan was onto something back in 2002... Surround yourself with positive people, who will help you when you need it. They are out there, and often, you don't even have to look for them, they will come to you. Also... anyone who suffers from addiction like myself will hopefully get something from this!

Matt & Phil put on tinfoil hats, shut the curtains and prepare to free their minds. But first, they settle a debate about peameal bacon: friend or foe? Phil recounts a Facebook occurrence involving the Bombs Away podcast. Call it fate, or divine intervention, Disney’s Angels in the Outfield came back. Skip from the Skip and Josh podcast couldn’t resist getting in on the baseball movie action. Save us all, hockey season better start soon. Networks of Conspiracies - Part 1 (22:08) From government cover ups to alien encounters to covert mind control programs, conspiracies and conspiracy theories have captivated our imaginations for generations. But what can social science, humanities and arts offer us in order to make sense of enigmatic tales? By situating conspiracy theories in time and place and by focusing on the context and setting, we are provided with a unique view of socio-cultural anxieties and political uncertainties. At it’s foundation, theorizing conspiracies is a way for individuals and groups to 'locate' their anxiety about uncertainty and mistrust of forces beyond their control. By paying attention to the networks that form around conspiracies, we can then start thinking about the societal, cultural and political apprehensions of our times and bring some certainty to uncertain futures.

dattrax: 'Electric City' is a tribute to the city we love and where we fell in love with house music, Toronto. A tribute to it's community of house music DJs, producers, promoters, club owners, everyone involved and the all the party people/ the dancers (included those of us who can't dance but love to ;) This is a tribute to the house we got into, grew into, grew up in and fell in love with each time we heard these tracks. A huge hi-five, hug and thank you to all the singers, producers and DJs that made and played these tracks!! 'Classic House' is a shifting definition... just depends on when you got into house and when those first 5-6 formative years were for you. For us tracks made in 1985-1996 are considered 'classic' but we started partying in 1990 and from 1990-1996 we were privileged to have heard and danced to the earlier tracks. For 'Electric City', I wanted to go for the 'what old is new again' intent, so it's not entirely a classic house mix because it contains some instrumental tracks that were created past '96 and I included covers and remixes of classics that had the same feel, had great sound quality and didn't care when those were actually produced. For the regular classics, sound quality was paramount also, but had to make exceptions for "Move" and "Music Take Me Up" because they are such wicked tracks (were my poor attempts at transferring my vinyl to digital). I'm sorry but on "Emotions Electric" was a CD version I bought at Sam The Record Man (sadly not in biz anymore)... back to my apology, I cranked the bass too much so... Over 5yrs ago, I wasted almost two months in the cracks of time between work and family recording a crate and a half (150 records) into my computer. Realised afterwards that because I had a crappy sound card the digitized tracks were flat sounding). After that Jim and I just started buying classics on beatport, traxsource, itunes and defected and probably 90% of the time the sound quality was excellent. Got a few classic tracks from friends like Eric Ling, Gene King, Devon Wills and Tyrone Solomon. Then Roberto Pinto told me about Discogs and all my classic house vinyl dreams are gonna coming true. We keep saying but bears repeating: "This is the best time for house music. Period!" As always, we hope you enjoy this mix and that it gives you that house feeling from head to toe. (If you were so inclined, then please donate any amount you'd like to with the paypal button to the right side of this site. We've had two donations in the last four years of operating this site, but hoping to set a record this year & you can be a part of that;) Listed are the 42 tracks in order and a few sentences about each: (Really want to give you a little history of our early journey) cover by FCL- "It's You" (2012) Original (1986) "It's You" by E.S.P. Love this acapella cover!! Thought this would be a great start to this mix. Don't have a good quality version of the original. A Guy Called Gerald- "Emotions Electric" (1988) DJ AKI from the warehouse days made me love this track, it's so beautiful. Bought it on CD many years ago and always wanted to put it on a mix. Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)/ Coral Way Chiefs *moniker- "Release Myself" (1992) First heard this at a warehouse party on Spadina Ave, south of Dundas St in Toronto's main downtown Chinatown. It was at a "PTS" party!! Peter, Tyrone & Shams dominated warehouse parties for a few summers. Tightest house djs. Shams actually played this track off of reel to reel!!!!!!!!!! Mixing from reel to reel to vinyl turntables- BADASS!! Bobby Konders- "The Poem" (1990) Jim & I first head this at 'RPM All Ages Sundays' DJ'ed by Matt C. Jim flipped out and bought his first house records the next day. Think we met weeks later both stomping like maniacs at the speaker bins. We were 16 and were like: "WHAT THE HECK IS THIS STUFF!! THIS MUSIC IS WICKED!!!" Satoshi Tomiie- "And I Loved You" feat. vocals by Arnold Jarvis (1990) This was a record from my very 1st record purchases. It was summer time and I walked into a record store on Yonge St., downtown called "Carnival" and met Tyrone Solomon (of PTS fame!). Nicest guy and bought Shades of Black's "SHADOWS" EP on some label called 'Intrigue', I think. Can't imagine how many times I've heard this beautiful record and at countless parties. cover by Phonique- "Feel What You Want" feat. vocals by Rebecca (2012) Original (1994) by Rob Dougan & Rollo Armstrong & Kristine W (also featuring her vocals) Jim bought doubles of the original Kristine W. We were crammed into his bedroom when he 1st played it for me- I FLIPPED OUT!! Jim loved phasing doubles and then playing them purposely slightly off beat- sounded wicked!! Now you can do it with a 'delay' effects button.  He made a mix on cassette tape, then we went downtown looking for a warehouse party. Love this cover done by Phonique and Rebecca, they keep the original feel but brought a freshness to this timeless vocal track. M.A.W.- "I Can't Get No Sleep" remixed by David Morales (1995) First time I heard this was at a warehouse party near Wellesley St., around 6am, after working nightshift at 7West Cafe. Vince Ailey's friend was DJing. Can't remember his name but was a towering spanish guy, great guy. The way he expertly slowly drifted these two minutes of drum intro into the last song. I was dancing non-stop and when that India vocal came in- WOW!! Tommy Musto- "Take Some Time Out" feat. vocals by Arnold Jarvis (1987) This vocal still gives me goosebumps!! Was a fav at many warehouse jams! remixed by Bush II Bush- "You're Gonna Miss Me" (2007) Original by Turntable Orchestra ‎– "You're Gonna Miss Me" (1988) Love the original the best but don't have a clean, good quality digital copy and my vinyl's all scratched up. This is a really good remix bringing modern day tight, bright sounds to this classic vocal. Bang The Party- "Bang-Bang You're Mine" (1990) First time I heard this was at my pal, Moses' house, we were wrecked and he was mixing this and Fingers Inc tracks. We were all 16yrs old and couldn't believe this house music stuff!! cover by Xakosa- "Miss Me" feat. vocals by Kenny Thomas (2013) Original by Turntable Orchestra ‎– "You're Gonna Miss Me" (1988) This is such a good cover with a jackin' beat, had to include also even though played another version already. Back in the day, DJs like AKI and PTS would tease you by playing parts of a track, 5-6 times during the night- just a sliver, a few beats each time, just enough of a hook. That's how they broke tracks! By the 5th time, everyone was so excited that the whole room was bouncing with hands in the air! Bobby D'Ambrosio‎– "Moment Of My Life" feat. vocals by Michelle Weeks (1997) ‎ This is one of the most uplifting vocal house tracks out there! Michelle Weeks baby!! Man, there are probably 250 classic house tracks I'd love to put in mixes if I only had clean digital versions. One can dream. M.A.W.- "I Get Lifted" feat. vocals by Barbara Tucker remixed by John Ciafone (1994) Don't know a house dj worth his salt that doesn't have two dozen Masters At Work vinyl records. Priceless track. Feelin' this? Masters At Work or M.A.W.(Little Louie Vega & Kenny Dope Gonzalez)- "I Can't Get No Sleep" feat. vocals by India (1993) Had to include the original. First time we heard this was years before that David Morales remix played earlier. We were at "Kat Klub", just south west of Church St & Queen St E. Kevin Williams, rubbed the celophone cover off of the record on his jeans and SLAMMED this down. He could MIX!! Kevin was actually the first LIVE house DJ i had heard at 16 at "GO GO's", in the 'White Room' on Richmond St & Duncan. He BURNED through records with fast change ups. At the end of the night, Jason Palma said there was a STACK of records in a pile beside him OUTSIDE of their sleeves!! He mixes with a frenzy! Jason told that story and I felt it on the dance floor but wasn't privy to the DJ booth ; ) I got in with my cousin's 21yr old ID, I guess since every Chinese guy at that time looked the same ; ) Great for me! Thompson & Lenoir (LNR)- "Can't Stop The House" (1987) LNR, same guys that made the warehouse classic "Work It To The Bone"!! Wish I had a clean copy of that! First time Jim and I heard this was at 616 Yonge St., around Wellesley. When AKI threw this down, we almost put our fists through the wall it was that exciting!! FLIPPED OUT! That's HOUSE MUSIC. ‎ Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)/ Liberty City *moniker– "Some Lovin'" (1992) I loved this track so much that for a whole summer, every warehouse I went to, I 'requested' this track. Drove AKI and the rest nuts. But this vocal was SOOOOOOO DIRTY!!! That MURK feel, those baselines!! Then we saw Liberty City perform it live at The OZ on Mercer St. Jestofunk-"Stellar Funk" remixed by Lazzaro (1997) This congo instrumental I played the crap out of back in the vinyl days, mixed it with dozens of different vocals. My personal policy is NEVER REPEAT a combo and it's brought joy to every situation. Great track!! Joe Smooth- "The Promised Land" feat. vocals by Anthony Thomas (1987) What this track does to you is HOUSE MUSIC. Beautiful in every way. Can listen to this and have listened to this OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Instrumental mix by M.A.W. (date?) M.A.W.-River Ocean‎– "Love & Happiness" (Yemaya Y Ochún) feat. vocals by India (1994) Jim bought doubles of this also and he played the crap out of it! Like a great dessert that's good with EVERY meal. Tracks like this make mixing so much fun because each new combo is a rebirth in emotions. Inner City- "Big Fun" (1988) was when original by Kevin Saunderson was made, but this remix was made in (2003) by Juan Atkins First time I heard this was at Focus on Joseph St around Wellesley. Nope not the 'Focus' at City Hall, that was before my time. Play a few bars and people go MENTAL on the dancefloor! Infectious. dub mix remixed by Soul Clap Raze- "Break 4 Love" (2011) vocal mix remixed by Soul Clap Raze- "Break 4 Love" (2011) Original (1988) Raze- "Break 4 Love" feat. vocals by Keith Thompson I LOVE EVERY VERSION of the original also, the full vocal, the instrumental bringing out this timeless baseline and the spanish female vocal version. Jim bought these remixes and I just lost it. Can't believe Soul Clap got the original vocal by Keith Thompson. They keep the original sounds but brought it to the current times. Like the beginning of the dub and didn't like the beginning of the vocal, so I mixed them together. The original is the best but will have to save for another time. remixed by Michel Cleis 'Floreo'(2010) original M.A.W.-River Ocean‎– "Love & Happiness" (Yemaya Y Ochún) feat. vocals by India (1994) Jim had double records of this original MAW vocal! This remix revived this track for us! Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)- "Tried So Hard" feat. vocals by Bobby Pruit (1993) This track reminds me of one of the 1st time I met Vince Ailey, a great Toronto House DJ & producer but back then he was one of the BADDEST dancers! And not that hip-hop dancing to house music crap, real house dancing. We were at a PTS party on Duncan, south of Richmond. The ceilings were low and sweat was dripping off it. That was nasty, but the MUSIC was so addictive, no one left till after 5am!! Kerri Chandler & Johnny McDougald- "Something Wrong" (1992) Killer track! Chandler is a brick layer, this is a foundation dub. New house lovers are gonna say "WTF??!!" Jim and I often wonder when we hear a wicked track.. 'how did they come up with this track? the ideas? the sounds?' We should start producing so we can make someone else think that. Hopefully soon... Fingers Inc. (Larry Heard, Ron Wilson & Robert Owens) ‎– "Music Take Me Up" feat. vocals by Robert Owens (1985) My first exposure to house in a serious way was Fingers tracks, think over a dozen like 'So Glad', 'What About This Love', 'Distant Planet', 'A Path', 'Mysteries of Love, 'Can You Feel It' and the list is endless. Tracks got attention those days. We burned the grooves off these records!! Mondo Grosso- "Souffles H" remixed by M.A.W. (1995) How many MAW tracks in this mix?? Little Louie Vega & Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez are so sick!! How many house tracks copied their swing? Standing on the shoulders of Giants! Let it grow!! remixed by Tricky Disco- "Tricky Disco" (1990) Love this sexy sax mix! Didn't like this track till it wasn't being played any longer. Jaydee- "Plastic Dreams" (1992) This is an anthem with killer keys!! original M.A.W. & Lem Springsteen- "Nite Life" feat. vocals by Kim English (1994) remixed by Armand Van Helden (1994) Love this vocal!! All our fav house djs in the past played this track. Can't stop dancing to this. Blaze- "So Special" (1990) This was one of my first records and has so many great memories attached to it. Eddie Lewis & Kerri Chandler- "I Need You" feat. vocals by Kamar (1993) Nothing like seeing a smokey dark room with over a hundred people with hands in the air and singing along! House Karaoke!! Cajmere- "Brighter Days" feat. vocals by Dajae (1992) remixed by Karizma & DJ Spen (2011) Karizma smashed it with this remix!! He kept all the original elements and turbo boosted the thump of this gorgeous vocal! Dodha & DJ Spen- "Inrowd" (2013) This is not a classic instrumental but reminded me of the old days with it's feel and sound. Actually reminded me of Mateo & Matos' track "Raw Elements", gotta get that vinyl on Discogs! original Jay Williams, Nelson Roman & Rob Hanning- "Sweat" feat. vocals by Jay Williams (1990) JoJoFlores-Rmx (1999?) 'Sweat' reminds me of this club in North York, just outside of Toronto, but now part of the GTA (Greater Toronto Area). "Inner City" was a wicked club and one of the first to play house. And the dancers there were incredible!! It was that time when everyone got tailored dress pants made and they all had slight to ridiculous bell bottoms. But it seemed so cool at the time watching these guys dance. Jay Williams' vocals on this are legendary and JoJo made this killer remix that made this vocal alive again! Martin Solveig- "Afro Deep" (1999) This is not a classic track but I played the crap out of this congo instrumental. The house feel can be expressed in limitless ways. original Show Me Love feat. vocals by Robin S (1993) remixed by Steve Angello & Laidback Luke (2008) Jim played this remix for the first time at a party a few years ago and EVERYONE went bananas at a certain part near the beginning. You'll definitely KNOW when you FEEL it. Nightmares On Wax- "Aftermath" (1990) This reminds me of a dance my friends DJ'ed at at Jarvis Collegiate near Wellesley. That was a party and we were all into HOUSE and danced like crazy. My friend, Noel Nanton (AN INCREDIBLE HOUSE DJ & PRODUCER), got me into house at 16 and took me to go see Kevin Williams at GO-GO's and some friends had great friends at Jarvis Collegiate and we bonded with tons of house music. Scotti Deep/ Fathoms N.Y. *moniker- "Braniak" (1995) Jim and I went BONKERS when we heard this for the 1st time at a warehouse party. Think it was at the 4th and 5th on Richmond St. It was such a raw and techy bouncy charger! original Romanthony- "Bring U Up" (1995) remixed by Deetron (2011) I don't know how many Romanthony records we own but he made some great ones. God Rest his Soul. This remix by DeeTron brought this track back to the current state of affairs. Love remixes of classics that preserve the feel but make it fresh with higher quality of sounds. Fingers Inc.- "Bring Down The Walls" feat. vocals by Robert Owens (1986) Bought this digital copy from iTunes. Got every Fingers vinyl! This got so played out it almost sounded commercial. But for those who haven't heard it for years or for the first time- WATCH OUT. John Rocco- "Move" (1987) I first heard this at Jim's house, this was when FreeStyle + House was the sound. We got into it probably by '95. Best memory of this track live was when Kenny Glasgow, now famous 1/2 of Art Department, dropped this right from the beginning at The Wellington, on Wellington, south of Spadina & King St. Toronto history. Killer thumpin' intro. I never mix this track cause I want to hear that beginning. Most of the tracks in this mix bought from www.Beatport.com and www.Traxsource.com and www.Defected.com and iTunes, http://www.apple.com/itunes/ BTW... if you enjoy this mix, then there's a PayPal DONATE button on the top right side of this website... any amount would be appreciated ; ) For Toronto or Global bookings: dattrax@gmail.com This house mix made on Traktor S4 Controller & laptop with no sync applied, but mix was made multiple times with multiple failures. Hope you are forgiving and have fun listening.

Got a few classic tracks from friends like Eric Ling, Gene King, Devon Wills and Tyrone Solomon. Then Roberto Pinto told me about Discogs and all my classic house vinyl dreams are gonna coming true. We keep saying but bears repeating: "This is the best time for house music. Period!" As always, we hope you enjoy this mix and that it gives you that house feeling from head to toe. (If you were so inclined, then please donate any amount you'd like to with the paypal button to the right side of this site. We've had two donations in the last four years of operating this site, but hoping to set a record this year & you can be a part of that;) Listed are the 42 tracks in order and a few sentences about each: (Really want to give you a little history of our early journey) cover by FCL- "It's You" (2012) Original (1986) "It's You" by E.S.P. Love this acapella cover!! Thought this would be a great start to this mix. Don't have a good quality version of the original.   A Guy Called Gerald- "Emotions Electric" (1988) DJ AKI from the warehouse days made me love this track, it's so beautiful. Bought it on CD many years ago and always wanted to put it on a mix. Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)/ Coral Way Chiefs *moniker- "Release Myself" (1992) First heard this at a warehouse party on Spadina Ave, south of Dundas St in Toronto's main downtown Chinatown. It was at a "PTS" party!! Peter, Tyrone & Shams dominated warehouse parties for a few summers. Tightest house djs. Shams actually played this track off of reel to reel!!!!!!!!!! Mixing from reel to reel to vinyl turntables- BADASS!! Bobby Konders- "The Poem" (1990) Jim & I first head this at 'RPM All Ages Sundays' DJ'ed by Matt C. Jim flipped out and bought his first house records the next day. Think we met weeks later both stomping like maniacs at the speaker bins. We were 16 and were like: "WHAT THE HECK IS THIS STUFF!! THIS MUSIC IS WICKED!!!" Satoshi Tomiie- "And I Loved You" feat. vocals by Arnold Jarvis (1990) This was a record from my very 1st record purchases. It was summer time and I walked into a record store on Yonge St., downtown called "Carnival" and met Tyrone Solomon (of PTS fame!). Nicest guy and bought Shades of Black's "SHADOWS" EP on some label called 'Intrigue', I think. Can't imagine how many times I've heard this beautiful record and at countless parties. cover by Phonique- "Feel What You Want" feat. vocals by Rebecca (2012) Original (1994) by Rob Dougan & Rollo Armstrong & Kristine W (also featuring her vocals) Jim bought doubles of the original Kristine W. We were crammed into his bedroom when he 1st played it for me- I FLIPPED OUT!! Jim loved phasing doubles and then playing them purposely slightly off beat- sounded wicked!! Now you can do it with a 'delay' effects button.  He made a mix on cassette tape, then we went downtown looking for a warehouse party. Love this cover done by Phonique and Rebecca, they keep the original feel but brought a freshness to this timeless vocal track. M.A.W.- "I Can't Get No Sleep" remixed by David Morales (1995) First time I heard this was at a warehouse party near Wellesley St., around 6am, after working nightshift at 7West Cafe. Vince Ailey's friend was DJing. Can't remember his name but was a towering spanish guy, great guy. The way he expertly slowly drifted these two minutes of drum intro into the last song. I was dancing non-stop and when that India vocal came in- WOW!! Tommy Musto- "Take Some Time Out" feat. vocals by Arnold Jarvis (1987) This vocal still gives me goosebumps!! Was a fav at many warehouse jams! remixed by Bush II Bush- "You're Gonna Miss Me" (2007) Original by Turntable Orchestra ‎– "You're Gonna Miss Me" (1988) Love the original the best but don't have a clean, good quality digital copy and my vinyl's all scratched up. This is a really good remix bringing modern day tight, bright sounds to this classic vocal. Bang The Party- "Bang-Bang You're Mine" (1990) First time I heard this was at my pal, Moses' house, we were wrecked and he was mixing this and Fingers Inc tracks. We were all 16yrs old and couldn't believe this house music stuff!! cover by Xakosa- "Miss Me" feat. vocals by Kenny Thomas (2013) Original by Turntable Orchestra ‎– "You're Gonna Miss Me" (1988) This is such a good cover with a jackin' beat, had to include also even though played another version already. Back in the day, DJs like AKI and PTS would tease you by playing parts of a track, 5-6 times during the night- just a sliver, a few beats each time, just enough of a hook. That's how they broke tracks! By the 5th time, everyone was so excited that the whole room was bouncing with hands in the air! Bobby D'Ambrosio‎– "Moment Of My Life" feat. vocals by Michelle Weeks (1997) ‎ This is one of the most uplifting vocal house tracks out there! Michelle Weeks baby!! Man, there are probably 250 classic house tracks I'd love to put in mixes if I only had clean digital versions. One can dream. M.A.W.- "I Get Lifted" feat. vocals by Barbara Tucker remixed by John Ciafone (1994) Don't know a house dj worth his salt that doesn't have two dozen Masters At Work vinyl records. Priceless track. Feelin' this? Masters At Work or M.A.W.(Little Louie Vega & Kenny Dope Gonzalez)- "I Can't Get No Sleep" feat. vocals by India (1993) Had to include the original. First time we heard this was years before that David Morales remix played earlier. We were at "Kat Klub", just south west of Church St & Queen St E. Kevin Williams, rubbed the celophone cover off of the record on his jeans and SLAMMED this down. He could MIX!! Kevin was actually the first LIVE house DJ i had heard at 16 at "GO GO's", in the 'White Room' on Richmond St & Duncan. He BURNED through records with fast change ups. At the end of the night, Jason Palma said there was a STACK of records in a pile beside him OUTSIDE of their sleeves!! He mixes with a frenzy! Jason told that story and I felt it on the dance floor but wasn't privy to the DJ booth ; ) I got in with my cousin's 21yr old ID, I guess since every Chinese guy at that time looked the same ; ) Great for me! Thompson & Lenoir (LNR)- "Can't Stop The House" (1987) LNR, same guys that made the warehouse classic "Work It To The Bone"!! Wish I had a clean copy of that! First time Jim and I heard this was at 616 Yonge St., around Wellesley. When AKI threw this down, we almost put our fists through the wall it was that exciting!! FLIPPED OUT! That's HOUSE MUSIC. ‎ Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)/ Liberty City *moniker– "Some Lovin'" (1992) I loved this track so much that for a whole summer, every warehouse I went to, I 'requested' this track. Drove AKI and the rest nuts. But this vocal was SOOOOOOO DIRTY!!! That MURK feel, those baselines!! Then we saw Liberty City perform it live at The OZ on Mercer St. Jestofunk-"Stellar Funk" remixed by Lazzaro (1997) This congo instrumental I played the crap out of back in the vinyl days, mixed it with dozens of different vocals. My personal policy is NEVER REPEAT a combo and it's brought joy to every situation. Great track!! Joe Smooth- "The Promised Land" feat. vocals by Anthony Thomas (1987) What this track does to you is HOUSE MUSIC. Beautiful in every way. Can listen to this and have listened to this OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Instrumental mix by M.A.W. (date?) M.A.W.-River Ocean‎– "Love & Happiness" (Yemaya Y Ochún) feat. vocals by India (1994) Jim bought doubles of this also and he played the crap out of it! Like a great dessert that's good with EVERY meal. Tracks like this make mixing so much fun because each new combo is a rebirth in emotions. Inner City- "Big Fun" (1988) was when original by Kevin Saunderson was made, but this remix was made in (2003) by Juan Atkins First time I heard this was at Focus on Joseph St around Wellesley. Nope not the 'Focus' at City Hall, that was before my time. Play a few bars and people go MENTAL on the dancefloor! Infectious. dub mix remixed by Soul Clap Raze- "Break 4 Love" (2011) vocal mix remixed by Soul Clap Raze- "Break 4 Love" (2011) Original (1988) Raze- "Break 4 Love" feat. vocals by Keith Thompson I LOVE EVERY VERSION of the original also, the full vocal, the instrumental bringing out this timeless baseline and the spanish female vocal version. Jim bought these remixes and I just lost it. Can't believe Soul Clap got the original vocal by Keith Thompson. They keep the original sounds but brought it to the current times. Like the beginning of the dub and didn't like the beginning of the vocal, so I mixed them together. The original is the best but will have to save for another time. remixed by Michel Cleis 'Floreo'(2010) original M.A.W.-River Ocean‎– "Love & Happiness" (Yemaya Y Ochún) feat. vocals by India (1994) Jim had double records of this original MAW vocal! This remix revived this track for us! Murk (Oscar G & Ralf Falcon)- "Tried So Hard" feat. vocals by Bobby Pruit (1993) This track reminds me of one of the 1st time I met Vince Ailey, a great Toronto House DJ & producer but back then he was one of the BADDEST dancers! And not that hip-hop dancing to house music crap, real house dancing. We were at a PTS party on Duncan, south of Richmond. The ceilings were low and sweat was dripping off it. That was nasty, but the MUSIC was so addictive, no one left till after 5am!! Kerri Chandler & Johnny McDougald- "Something Wrong" (1992) Killer track! Chandler is a brick layer, this is a foundation dub. New house lovers are gonna say "WTF??!!" Jim and I often wonder when we hear a wicked track.. 'how did they come up with this track? the ideas? the sounds?' We should start producing so we can make someone else think that. Hopefully soon... Fingers Inc. (Larry Heard, Ron Wilson & Robert Owens) ‎– "Music Take Me Up" feat. vocals by Robert Owens (1985) My first exposure to house in a serious way was Fingers tracks, think over a dozen like 'So Glad', 'What About This Love', 'Distant Planet', 'A Path', 'Mysteries of Love, 'Can You Feel It' and the list is endless. Tracks got attention those days. We burned the grooves off these records!! Mondo Grosso- "Souffles H" remixed by M.A.W. (1995) How many MAW tracks in this mix?? Little Louie Vega & Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez are so sick!! How many house tracks copied their swing? Standing on the shoulders of Giants! Let it grow!! remixed by Tricky Disco- "Tricky Disco" (1990) Love this sexy sax mix! Didn't like this track till it wasn't being played any longer. Jaydee- "Plastic Dreams" (1992) This is an anthem with killer keys!! original M.A.W. & Lem Springsteen- "Nite Life" feat. vocals by Kim English (1994) remixed by Armand Van Helden (1994) Love this vocal!! All our fav house djs in the past played this track. Can't stop dancing to this. Blaze- "So Special" (1990) This was one of my first records and has so many great memories attached to it. Eddie Lewis & Kerri Chandler- "I Need You" feat. vocals by Kamar (1993) Nothing like seeing a smokey dark room with over a hundred people with hands in the air and singing along! House Karaoke!! Cajmere- "Brighter Days" feat. vocals by Dajae (1992) remixed by Karizma & DJ Spen (2011) Karizma smashed it with this remix!! He kept all the original elements and turbo boosted the thump of this gorgeous vocal! Dodha & DJ Spen- "Inrowd" (2013) This is not a classic instrumental but reminded me of the old days with it's feel and sound. Actually reminded me of Mateo & Matos' track "Raw Elements", gotta get that vinyl on Discogs! original Jay Williams, Nelson Roman & Rob Hanning- "Sweat" feat. vocals by Jay Williams (1990) JoJoFlores-Rmx (1999?) 'Sweat' reminds me of this club in North York, just outside of Toronto, but now part of the GTA (Greater Toronto Area). "Inner City" was a wicked club and one of the first to play house. And the dancers there were incredible!! It was that time when everyone got tailored dress pants made and they all had slight to ridiculous bell bottoms. But it seemed so cool at the time watching these guys dance. Jay Williams' vocals on this are legendary and JoJo made this killer remix that made this vocal alive again! Martin Solveig- "Afro Deep" (1999) This is not a classic track but I played the crap out of this congo instrumental. The house feel can be expressed in limitless ways. original Show Me Love feat. vocals by Robin S (1993) remixed by Steve Angello & Laidback Luke (2008) Jim played this remix for the first time at a party a few years ago and EVERYONE went bananas at a certain part near the beginning. You'll definitely KNOW when you FEEL it. Nightmares On Wax- "Aftermath" (1990) This reminds me of a dance my friends DJ'ed at at Jarvis Collegiate near Wellesley. That was a party and we were all into HOUSE and danced like crazy. My friend, Noel Nanton (AN INCREDIBLE HOUSE DJ & PRODUCER), got me into house at 16 and took me to go see Kevin Williams at GO-GO's and some friends had great friends at Jarvis Collegiate and we bonded with tons of house music. Scotti Deep/ Fathoms N.Y. *moniker- "Braniak" (1995) Jim and I went BONKERS when we heard this for the 1st time at a warehouse party. Think it was at the 4th and 5th on Richmond St. It was such a raw and techy bouncy charger! original Romanthony- "Bring U Up" (1995) remixed by Deetron (2011) I don't know how many Romanthony records we own but he made some great ones. God Rest his Soul. This remix by DeeTron brought this track back to the current state of affairs. Love remixes of classics that preserve the feel but make it fresh with higher quality of sounds. Fingers Inc.- "Bring Down The Walls" feat. vocals by Robert Owens (1986) Bought this digital copy from iTunes. Got every Fingers vinyl! This got so played out it almost sounded commercial. But for those who haven't heard it for years or for the first time- WATCH OUT. John Rocco- "Move" (1987) I first heard this at Jim's house, this was when FreeStyle + House was the sound. We got into it probably by '95. Best memory of this track live was when Kenny Glasgow, now famous 1/2 of Art Department, dropped this right from the beginning at The Wellington, on Wellington, south of Spadina & King St. Toronto history. Killer thumpin' intro. I never mix this track cause I want to hear that beginning. Most of the tracks in this mix bought from www.Beatport.com and www.Traxsource.com and www.Defected.com and iTunes, http://www.apple.com/itunes/ BTW... if you enjoy this mix, then there's a PayPal DONATE button on the top right side of this website... any amount would be appreciated ; ) For Toronto or Global bookings: dattrax@gmail.com This house mix made on Traktor S4 Controller & laptop with no sync applied, but mix was made multiple times with multiple failures. Hope you are forgiving and have fun listening.

Panda presents Kashuks. I received a demo a few months ago from this Latvian producer and I was blown away by what I heard. His tracks sound like they should accompany huge cinematic productions of tales of tragedy. It's somewhat like dubstep, but with a lot of hiphop influences mixed in there too. It reminds me a lot of Rob Dougan's stuff too. All in all it's a very different sound than we usually hear from producers now. I love it and I hope you do too! Be sure to check out more of his music on Facebook and support it because we need more of this original music coming in to the scene. His album "Piece of a Chance" is out now on Audio Rejectz. Kashuks was born in 1991 and now he is a producer and remixer from Latvia. He has been making music since 2007. Kashuks started music making as a small joke and in several months this joke became in more serious movement. He started with hip hop beats only. From 2009 till 2012 he produced a lot of Latvian well known hip hop artists. In year 2010 his first hip hop instrumental release was nominated as Latvian Hip Hop Year Award and it was recognized as it. Now he has grown his skills and he intricately weaves multiple genres from electronic, down-tempo, melancholy and chill, hip hop, to experimental, to create truly mesmerizing pieces. On 17 August 2012 he released his first studio debut album "Piece Of A Chance". TRACKLISTINGKashuks - Don't Be Afraid Of Yourself Kashuks - Place To Be Kashuks - Power Of Thought Kashuks - Birds Fly High Kashuks - Forest Of Happiness Kashuks - Forecourt Kashuks - Will You Dance With Me? Kashuks - Beautiful Kashuks - A Letter Kashuks - Power Of Thought (Kashuks Remix) Kashuks - Calm Down
