NOIZE, NOIZE

now we got missamanda AND tipsy up in this forum. good work guys! *pats himself on back*

STOP THE h8

i think the problem with this forum is its always the same like, 3 people, and we all know each other anyways. so we're basically just having these completely pointless conversations -mostly with ourselves. it's all about traffic.. the general discussions section gets the most traffic, therefore i'd rather post anything even mildly consequential in that section (as opposed to THIS post, which is completely useless, therefore belongs here)..

much like with the events section(S).. now that they've been broken up into 3 subcategories, i'm less inclined to go through the effort of actually posting shit, or even checking shit, because each subsection has less traffic than the general Events section did b4... that's my opinion.

also, i think noah is the fucking best, and this whole site rocks, no doubt.

dude, getting with it was so like 5:31. you're gay as hell

is now up on [ rave.ca ] yoyo check it

on a more serious topic, this dumbass section seems to be experiencing a MASSIVE surge in popularity. check this DOPE thread i started, tons o' action here

this week we have a very special guest all the way from Ste-Catharines ONTARIO, he performed at Flux, in the blair witch chamber, and now he's back, by popular demand, to bring some freaky breaky electro, perhaps tinged with christian gospel samples, early 90s pop, minimal techno, and general fuckedupedness.

He's also packing visual accompaniment for his set: live projections designed by the one, the only, yours truly:

DJ MACHINE (aka Stinky Marinky the Croatian Sensation)

DJ Machine, self described "international player and master of rocking big systems" is known for his unique way of mixing deep techno, sexy electro, dirty house and cheesy classics. Machine's style can be described as raw, dirty and hands on; a lot like kinky sex. As much as Machine enjoys running both gay and straight dance floors, he's also into experimenting with sound and noise at art events

DJ Machine, a.k.a. Stinky Marinky the Croatian Sensation, has been working with sound and music for the better part of his life. Playing music that incorporates underground chic with pop sensibilities, he has earned a reputation as a crowd pleaser, playing for the ladies giving it hard and deep yet elegant.

He has released vinyl for his own Porno House label, based in Niagara Falls, Canada, and Mono Records, based in Helsinki, Finland. He is currently recording music for Abflug Records, Helsinki based audio and video label, as well as The Polka Dot EP [ ] $ound$) for his own ghetto$Y$TEM imprint, both to be released in Fall 2004.

Heavily involved in the arts scene in his home town, Machine is an active member of Suitcase in Point Theatre Troupe [ www.suitcaseinpoint.com ] and the Niagara Artists' Company [ www.nac.org ] which is also the permanent home to his custom built and constantly evolving Jamaican style sound system the "ghetto $Y$TEM". Always one to share his knowledge and secrets, Machine along with friend DJ Dragon teach young people about the art of the DJ at the YMCA and high school music classes with their hands on seminar Turntablist Tutorial.

Machine is a member of Vinyl Interventions, a trio of performance based audio artists who work on experimental music and art installations involving vinyl records. In terms of event promotion, Machine organizes events under the moniker POP COM, focusing his energy on Toronto area events. He has also worked closely with other events promoters, particularly Promise, Harvest Festival [ www.harvestfestival.org ] and Om Festival [ www.omfestival.ca ] Machine has performed all over Canada, the US and Europe, on radio, t.v., the net, at clubs, fine dining establishments and lounges, outdoor festivals, concerts and art galleries. At the moment, he is working with a number of Niagara area wineries on a series of events called vine-L which combine fine dining, wine, electronic dance music and video art in outdoor rural winery events. Machine also works with aerobics instructor Sandra Alvarez of the YMCA and Fulton Fitness, creating custom music mixes for strength training and aerobics spin classes. Machine has been voted the best DJ in Niagara for three consecutive years by local media. Marinko has also built a reputation as a journalist / writer (worked as music editor in Pulse Niagara Magazine for many years and runs E$$ $EE PRE$$), collage artist and dabbles as a video artist. Machine is also attending Brock University on a part time basis where he is working towards an Honours Bachelor of Communications in Popular Culture. He currently splits his time between his home studio in Niagara and Toronto - where he continues to create art and perform on a regular basis.

hey man, take a tip from tiger woods. learn to laugh at yourself.

or, as george carlin put it, perhaps much more eloquently, "if you can't laugh at yourself, then let ME do it"

live PA, live visualz, DJs, minimal experimental and plain ole' bangin techno at Green Room, Friday night.



it's also kilobyte's b-day. bong

thurs aug 26 to sunday, st-laurent is closed again from sherbrooke to mtroyal.. not sure of all the details but i know that kops crew/ broken crew have a stage runnin' around duluth/st-laurent, (i'll be spinning thurs afternoon 3-5 pm) and there's some other dope stages also. saturday will be a live show by kidnfreq [ www.kidnfreq.net ] mothafuckin geniuses n shit... add any info you know about to this thread... word.

cause nobody EVER posts or replies to this section. I mean, I love [ rave.ca ] or ravewave or whatever it is, but when I personally wanna talk about techno (and have ANYONE pay attention) I post it in the general discussions. fuck.

btw for hard 3-deck tek sets check out C0Ld F34r at

[ com ]

for other sets look at my DJ profile in ravewave (better soudn quality also).

once again an amazing effort by the organizers, this is IMO the best outdoor event EVER. yes, too bad it was freezing cold (or at least that's what people kept telling me) somehow i didn't notice. big up toltech, big up pHeek's set, that was DOPE. and whoever was playing b4 him also.. didn't hear all that much music unfortunately as i spent a long time locked in an intense game of I-spy-with-my-little-eye, and sitting in my car blasting the beach boys. Full on Evil Dead vibe from start to finish.. amazing deco, dope sound everywhere.. the trance stage really completed the musical options; if anything there were TOO many stages. thanks so much to keith, all the hostyn peeps, my level 4 mothafuckas for keeping the fire stoked, brian wilson, mike love and al jardine for contributing their musical skills towards making my life a constant source of wonder, and everyone and everybody. YOU ROCK!!!!

GERALD BELANGER (TORONTO) [ www.nicesmooth.com ]

Producer, DJ, label-owner and mad scientist Gerald Belanger has been active in the electronic music scene since 1990, fusing his love for experimental sounds with his passion for dance music.
DJ'ing through 100's of North American and central European clubs and festivals, Belanger has been infecting audiences with a highly charged blend of futuristic drum 'n' bass and eclectic freestyle grooves, focusing heavily on exclusive Canadian vinyl + dubplates.

Through his various labels and associations around the world, Belanger has been responsible for the release of over 90 records and CD's. The label he founded in 1991, DEATH OF VINYL eNTERTAINMENT (DOVe), was one of the most influential Canadian labels of the time, serving up compact discs and records of obscure musical genres such as 'Techno' and 'Ambient-Dub' to an appreciative world. DOVe released 37 titles between 91-95, providing an outlet for many international groups at the beginnings of their careers. On the international level he started 2 overseas divisions, DOV Germany (with Oli Roesch's HYPERIUM - 6 releases from 92-93) and DOV UK (with Coldcut's NINJA TUNE - 9 releases from 93-94).

As 1994 rolled around Belanger began to phase out the record labels, and began focusing on nurturing and developing the local Toronto scene. He opened the city's first all electronic music shop MODULATIONS on Queen Street, and created a true alternative to the bootleg mix-tape/drug fueled rave culture dominating at the time.

By 1996 he had passed the torch for the shop and his enthusiasm returned for the label. Along with close friends Christopher Drost and Heiki Sillaste, they opened up a recording facility in 1997, and Belanger has been producing albums with the KINDER ATOM crew at their NICE+SMOOTH studios in Toronto ever since.

He signed a worldwide deal for 16 cd's and records through giant American label HYPNOTIC RECORDS/CAROLINE DISTRIBTUION (home to Kraftwerk, Future Sound Of London, etc..), a relationship which ended in 2001.

Now completely independant, nice+Smooth ultramedia has morphed into it's own label, studio, commercial production agency, clothing line and design house, with plans in the works for an upcoming DVD series.

Kinder Atom's biggest hit to date was with Grammy award winning reggae vocalist Michael Rose on the worldwide smash single "Illegal". A remix of the track which was released on Cologne label Basswerk became a massive dancefloor and radio hit in Germany, reaching number 4 on the influential Deutsche Club Charts and was deemed Single Of The Month in the popular German magazine Raveline. Kinder Atom have also worked with UK singer Musical Sniper (Oracabessa Records/UB40), as well as with Canadian rap icon Snow for the hit "Boom Boom Boogie" on Warner Brothers in Japan. On the ambient/chillout front, they have co-produced very well received albums with Vancouver's DEAD VOICES ON AIR, as well as England's RAPOON.

An on-going project of Belanger's has been curating the METRO BREAKS/OSCILLATE compilations, critically acclaimed collections of Toronto produced drum'n'bass tracks. The first 2 volumes (1998,1999) went to the top of the national college radio charts and were rotated by DJ's around the globe. The high profile of these releases brought Belanger out to perform a live DJ set on international television program 'EC' 'EC' on MUCHMUSIC, which set in motion the first METRO BREAKS tours. These groundbreaking events saw Gerald and label mate DJ FREEDOM spin in over 40 clubs in six different countries, solidifying the international reputation of Toronto as a drum 'n'bass hotspot.

In the summers of 2000 and 2001, DJ Gerald was performing with German freestyler MC MARVELLOUS MARVIN through Holland, Switzerland, Austria and Germany promoting the label and headlining at large clubs and street festivals such as the Basel STREET PARADE, Berlin's FUCKPARADE, and events such as POPKOMM and MIDEM. He has shared headlining spots alongside the likes of THE ORB, UNDERWORLD, BAD COMPANY, DJ KRUST and many more. 2002 saw the d&b side of his world expanding with the creation of a new label,OSCILLATE RECORDINGS, releasing 3 stellar singles as well as Belanger's 4th mix-cd. 2003 saw Belanger tour Europe again in the summer and recently performed for the first time in Japan. The nice+smooth imprint goes into overdrive beginning in 2004 with recent signing ROY DAVIS JR., and a string of new releases on the way.

His weekly radio mix-show, Unfortunate Sonic Casualties on Toronto station CKLN-FM has been on the air and at the forefront of the electronic music scene since 1990, providing an outlet for the underground community to network and communicate through music and action.
