I also found 2010 to be pretty uninspiring musically in our scene. I didn't go out as much as I used to, and when I did, I found myself bored with the music a lot more often. It def. has something to do with the fact that I've also been going out in this scene for many years now. There is def. a lack of new sounds for me to stumble across that I haven't already heard to some degree or another before. I would like to see more Deep House, and Progressive parties in this city. I still think Toronto has an incredible scene though, esp. for noobs. I think I need to put more effort into searching out new and different parties and venues to check out, instead of always frequenting the same 2 clubs the majority of the time.
MY LIST
Top Parties in T.O. - Sasha @ TIL, Beats Ahoy Canada Day Boat Cruise w/Victor Calderone (minus the no music at the beg. and end drama). John '00' Fleming @ Vola.
Outside of T.O. - Electric Zoo in NYC. Every set I saw there was flawless. Outdoor parties FTW!! Seeing the Chemical Brothers for the first time was a dream come true for me. I'll never forget it.
