Description: | Forward started in the summer of 2008 as platform to promote underground electronic music, filling the absence of a weekly rendez-vous for the alternative club scene. Originally thought out to be a hosting ground for drum’n’bass, jungle, breaks and dubstep, Forward grew and evolved into a night made to showcase a wide array of genres and scenes working with a variety of different crews and artists such as Loetech, Sixtoo, DZ, Da......tsik, Spor and Plastician, to name a few. Dubstep remains a central focus but Forward is also about bringing people of different musical backgrounds together to open their minds to different styles. By inviting over 75 different guest djs on the span of the last year, Forward gets people to enjoy and discover new artists. Forward is Rhys Taylor, a nightlife legend who has been playing alongside big names of the international electronic music scene in Montreal for almost 10 years now. Holding down "Your Radio is Broken" on CKUT for the past 5 years, throwing Mix Thursdays for almost 3 years, a residency at Blue Dog, Saphir and then Blizzarts with Broken Crew and bringing breaks to Stereo are a few of his accomplishments. David Rawalia aka Wally, a dj who has been mastering his craft since 2003 and more recently producing his own unique sounds. After promoting rave culture and sound and organizing a multitude of one-off all-nighters, he moved on to the dubstep scene taking full-part in the forward weekly as well as participating in other events such as soma and bassdrive. **************** THIS WEEK When we learnd that RUM'n'ASS nights at Vinyl didn't work out, we wanted to show two hard working Montrealers that even though their night brought some competition to bass culture on Thursday nights, Forward supports Rum'n'ass and we are a big bassy family. They did have something real special lined-up for this Thursday so while they're at it, they thought they'd host it at forward! **************** The Reverin - (AB / ON) EpicAcademy ||UnderSound ||Parallax Skateboards ||Symmetry ||Blhunt Recordings || (Electro/Dubstep/DnB) The Reverin has been known to bless the dancehall with his stylings of drum n bass, dubstep and Electro/Breaks. With years of experience playing venues spanning the continent, he has become widely known for his spirited stage presence, heavenly mixing skills, and powerfully engaging tracks. When the masses gather together in thy name, their prayers are answered with everything from bass-line rollers to dance-floor smashers, and mood setting rhythms that are destined to move the people. The Reverin's religion is big bass broken beat music and his church is the EpicAcademy. The EpicAcademy is a vastly talented collection of diversely skilled electronic music artists/enthusiasts from all across Canada. The Reverin is also affiliated with UnderSound, Parallax Skate Boards, Symmetry, Grounded Entertainment, and Blhunt Recordings. ****B2B**** Scott Efes - (MTL/Canada) EpicAcademy || [ mcefes.com ] ||Parallax Skateboards ||RUM N ASS [ www.myspace.com ] After Crossing the country and putting in time in most of the major drum n bass towns. Efes Has been Touring the great country of Canada for years. Getting his start as an MC and promoter, He eventually started spinning at events. Now a triple drum n bass threat,spinning on 3 decks.

( NS/MTL) RUM N ASS R.C.A has been taking Montreal's drum'n'bass scene by storm in 2009 and 2010. The Rum N Ass founder has been playing out regularly around the city, smashing dancefloors with her blend of smooth, melodic DNB and dark, heavy rollers. Having honed her skills behind the decks for years, she's been blowing up across the 514 and shows no signs of slowing! Don't miss her appearance at Forward!! **************** Funky Falz [ www.myspace.com ] We thought we'd add one more name to the line-up just to make sure to have a mix of style that incorporates all bass-based music. Funky falz loves wobles (and we're not reffering to the dj from ottawa here but acctual lfo->filter cutoff) so expect a bouncy, energetic mix of music wether it be 4x4, at 95 bpm or half-step at 140 bpm. **************** Passeport 2037 Saint-Denis Come for the AC, stick around for dope tunes and cheap booze, before you know, it's 3 am and you're kindly being informed that you need to move your butt outside... aint that the meaning of Thursday? |
