soooooooooo
i didn't wake up on time 
got home from work around 1am, slept through the alarms maher and i both had set and finally woke up at 9am, got to stereo at 920am and it sadly ended at 10am...but mon dieu, what a sound pulsating through those speakers...can't give much of a review seeing how i only caught him for 45 mins but wowowowowowwwwwwww he raped the place...dark, thick, minimalesque (that is to say minimal elements) proggy beats...heard maybe one tribalish drum pattern in the time i was there, that's it...
so happy he's a resident 
ummmm question to anyone who was there: did he play Ismael Rivas (aka Riva) - Luxtro (Original Mix)????????????? elie this is the track in the clip you posted...
i bet he did that track was the whole reason why i wanted to go see him lol...
anyways, definitely a DJ who's made for the temple.

Afterhours is a state of mind, but significantly, it's more a state of 'I don't mind'. A determined continuation, contentment and relief that 'it ain't over yet!' An injection of music into attitude and occasion which creates an emotional wave forth that isolates globally, a ringing harmonic, a signal to a like-minded collective that 'we are only us'.

Okay, slept for 3 hours and still stand by my original claim: this is the best afterhours set I have ever seen in my entire life, and easily ranks up amongst the top 5 sets I've ever heard.
My sister got into town at around 11pm, so picked some lebanese food and started drinking some gin with her friend and my buddy dmitry. Head to Stereo at around 3am, Joubin was playing a perfect techy tribal warmup set and the vibe of the place was great. The valentines decor was really nice, the place was hopping but there was still room to dance, and there was a surprisingly good girl to guy ratio, which isn't something I particularly care about at the afterhours but is nice to see nonetheless (except for the usual cracked out girls that repeatedly elbow/harass you the entire night, but that's neither here nor there). Was great to see Shara again, nice to meet you Elie, and of course good to see my other partners in crime partying it up.
Dimas hit the decks at around 5am, and holy shit did he destroy the place. His set was just PURE DANCEFLOOR; a relentless attack of driving beats and huge buildups that never disappointed. For me, his set captured everything that I love about house/prog/techno, and is in my opinion what a perfect afterhours set represents -- everything about it sounded so underground and the dancefloor was rocking from beginning til end. My sister and I danced front and centre for the entirety of his set without taking a break; my legs were killing but he just didn't give me an opportunity to rest, the set was just too fucking banging. He seemed to be having a wicked time and had a smile on his face pretty much the entire night.
Some IDs:
Deadmau5 - Not Exactly
Ismael Rivas - Fact2 (D-Formation mix)
Ismael Rivas - Luxtro (destroyed the place)
Fatboy Slim - Star 69 (some awesome remix)
Sia - The Girl You Lost To Cocaine (Sander van doorn remix)
Age of Love - Age of Love (some remix)
Fanciulli - Cat Out Of The Bag (Jim Rivers mix)
Julian Jewell - Air Conditione (his closer)
What an amazing night, I can't wait for this guy to come back. Sister's first time at an afterhours/partying in Montreal; talk about a great first impression.
