Hey all!

I’m going through the sorting process again in preparation for my upcoming demo for Pride Toronto in hopes that they pick me again to perform at one of the stages. There was no real rhyme nor reason to this mix aside from starting off around 112 bpm and working up to a heavy froth. You know, I kinda wish I had a little more time to play with the last one by DJ Dero – I forgot how much that one kicks…maybe it’ll make the cut? Anyway, I need to have this mix done before the end of the month so you can expect another set like this next time around on Wednesday.

I appeal to your collective sense of rhythm and good taste to weigh in on the tunes contained herein. Sounds like: Nu-Disco, Tech-House, House, Acid House, Vintage, Electro-House, Filtered Disco House!

Local DJ and promoter Boots Boogie stopped by the station last week and, true to form, delivered a set chock-a-block with Disco, Nu-Disco, Deep House, Tech-House, and some new Bootlegs. A fixture in Toronto’s underground dance scene, Boots’ love for music extends beyond any one particular genre and his passion is infectious. Working with production partner, Max the Fax and friends at the Deep North Blog, Boots has been crafting disco-tinged bootlegs and edits aimed squarely at the dancefloor. While still new to the production game, his tracks are quirky, a bit cheeky, and border on the warehouse vibe. No slouch, the man mixes his way through a ton of tracks and showcased some of the great work being put out by other up-and-coming Toronto producers (highlighted in bold for y’all). It was a great show and afterwards we chat a bit about his musical tastes, the rise of Nu-Disco, who’s hot in Toronto and Canada right now, and list off his upcoming events. This one is not to be missed.

Jiggy Tarsands is the latest alias of the mercurial Spencer Dee, a longtime veteran DJ in Toronto’s underground electronic music scene. Although his sound has evolved over the years, his passion for innovative and cutting-edge dance music has been a constant. With a keen ear and deep crates, Spencer has a knack for putting together compelling mixes that take the dancefloor on a journey into sound. As he says in the interview: “It’s not deep unless you have to work for it.”

We first met a few years back at a gig at the old Chelsea Lounge on Dundas. I recall enjoying his eclectic set and I distinctly remember running over to the booth a couple of times to peer over his shoulder and check out the Traktor display to see what was on deck. Since then I’ve caught him performing at the occasional Bounce party, some other one-off around town or at the occasional loft/warehouse jam and he’s always delivered the goods.

This latest incarnation is no exception. The sound of Jiggy Tarsands is deep, acid, warehouse, woozy, laidback nu-disco that’s slightly off-kilter.

Mike Conradi is a legend-in-the-making in Toronto's electronic music scene. The experienced DJ has been moving crowds for over a decade and has recently been bitten by the "production" bug. If you've been clubbing in Southern Ontario during the past few years you've no doubt danced to the rhythms of Mike Conradi at places like Nocturne, 24 Lounge, After 8 Lounge, Festivals like WEMF, or the old mainstays like Circa, The Docks and System Soundbar just to name a few....

Citing Deko-ze as an inspirational force, "from his mixing to his track selection & programming [Deko-ze] is in a league of his own," Conradi's no slouch behind the decks either.

Using 3 CDJs, Mike's signature sound is best summed up as a Techno-driven hybrid of Electro, House, and Funk overlaid with samples and effects. More to the point, the man has the skills to pay the bills.

As a producer, Mike has a number of remixes already under his belt and has releases forthcoming on labels such as Champion Beats, Fine Grind Audio, Don't Look Productions among others. You may also have caught Mike performing as one half of the DJ/Production duo known as Rex Manning with Christian Poulsen of HUGSNOTDRUGS.

I was fortunate to have Toronto area DJ/Producer Mike Conradi agree to submit an exclusive mix for In My Room last week. Quite frankly, the mix couldn't have come at a better time as I was hit with a nasty cold-flu thing and could barely even get my ass to the studio to load it up and press play.

If you like what you hear below, you can catch the man live here:

Friday April 13th at Nocturne in Toronto

First off, apologies for the delay getting Skank Honto’s dj mix posted up but for those of you who weren’t able to tune in and listen live; I think you’ll find that it was worth the wait. A problem with some mixer levels and a gap in the recording necessitated an overdub and re-recording in a section or 2 but, rest assured, the tracklist and the integrity of the mix remain intact and the mix sounds great!

Skank Honto has been a fixture in the Southern Ontario breaks scene over the past decade or so. Originally from London, ON, he moved to Toronto a few years back and brought the funk with him.

Known for his love of funky break beats, Skank Honto has recently become a booster for the emerging sounds of Nu-Funk and Ghetto-funk coming from Canada’s west coast. He credits the Make it Funky crew for helping to spread this new sound exemplified by acts like A.Skillz, Stickybuds, DJ Czech, the Funk Hunters, DJs Wood & Soo who are working to re-invent the sound of funky breaks. He also points to local talent like Big League Chu, and Marty McFly as being critical to the development of his sound as a dj.

A long-time collector of vinyl, Jay recently made the jump to Serato to overcome the lack of access to new records and he enjoys the versatility afforded to him through the use of the Novation Dicer as a MIDI interface. However, you can still hear the gems from his vinyl collection at the monthly Funkin’ it up! event he co-hosts with Toronto’s infamous vinyl junkie, DJ Splattermonkey, at No One Writes to the Colonel.

In the first hour and a bit, Skank Honto takes us on a journey through party breaks, funky breaks, some bangers and finally some dubstep-inspired sounds before we break (ha!) for an interview. Afterwards he rounds out the playlist with some choice cuts of the slower tempo’d Nu-Funk, Ghettofunk, and bootlegs.
