Mike Tull & Paul E. Lopes brought the funk to Activator, Friday night (Wrongbar)
DMoney team with St. Mandrew in front of the ever-present curtain of despair, Fuck Faces, Saturday (Sneaky Dee’s)
Last weekend was another one of those 4am slug-fests at The Drake with ELI ESCOBAR on Friday for NONSTOP, and one of the craziest, most exhausting (12 hours!) and history making parties I’ve ever been involved with, LIVE @ THE BBQ on Sunday. I’ll post a slew of photos and videos as they appear (this party was well documented by people other than myself) but for now, here’s a video of DJ STARTING FROM SCRATCH showing off his moves.
I recently befriended Ariane Forster a.k.a. ARI UP , frontwoman, vocalist and songwriter of legendary all girl punk/new wave band, THE SLITS. She was lovely and everything I knew she would be in a person...brings a tear to my eye....THE SLITS were one of the first groups to fuse punk, dub, reggae and world beat sounds together along with The Clash....for those who know...Ari Up’s mum has been romantically involved/married (no one is even sure whether they’re legally married, not even Ariane herself) for over 25 years to Johnny Lydon a.k.a. Johnny Rotten, lead singer of the SEX PISTOLS....what a life!
yeah so, parties are fun and all, but going up north to cottage Country is about three-million times better. the only thing that sucks is that i couldn’t find my camera, and my phone is somehow full. FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!
It’s also Fistfight Andrew’s Bornday today (last night) and it was sorta fun making him drink booze. He tried to get me to do some beater dances but i declined. I mean fuck, that aint my role right?
So, tonight we got our two good friends coming back up to do big thangs at Wrongbar: Dave Nada & Tittsworth. Dmoney was the first to bring them up here to Toronto, separately but together, on their Double D Tour, its going to be a madhouse. No sleep in Parkdale tonight.
Our good friends,Thunderheist, are giving you 3 choices but its not gas, grass or ass. Its for their new music video “Jerk It” and they want you to vote for one here. Its a tough decision, but I’m gonna go with tha jerk chicken, even though the last video has our good friend Lucie innit. Don’t hate me, Lucie. And apologies to Isis. She made me laugh the other night and i accidentally spat in her face.
So every spring in Toronto, the NXNE Festival rolls into town, and gives us all an excuse to drink until 4am (which ends up being more like 8am).
We set things off on Thursday night around midnight with the POP Montreal showcase featuring KNIFEHANDCHOP, MAYSR and MEGASOID among others (there was a lot, I have no intention of tracking down everyone’s myspace page).
Friday night saw us at two parties simultaneously with Vancouver’s U-TERN & NEOTERIC holding it down with DJ LAW and New York heavy-hitter DJ EVIL DEE @ Circa, and then closing things out with the J.O.T.S. boys at the Drake Underground.
I had no intention of going out Saturday, but i ended up at The Gladstone for some MuchMusic afterparty, where THUNDEHEIST performed on a teenie tiny stage (accompanied by SWAGGER) and somehow made it work. And then to Wrongbar where i hid in the back room where they keep empties til 5 in the morning.
Then sleep, wonderful sleep.
Wake up Tdot!! There’s a new kid in town...his name is DJ BARLETTA...his remixes have been posted on Missing Toof, Palmsout Sounds and Crux da House a.k.a. Crux Records(OH SNAP!, BRYAN COX, 3 IS A CROWD, DEVIANT SOUNDSYSTEM, JAIMIE FANATIC, HOSTAGE, CHEW FU), who have recently signed him up for some releases..his Lollipop (Lil Wayne) remix is a dance floor popper and he’s recently remixed one of my tracks with Syntonics...YO BARLETTA!!
My friend, ARABIAN PRINCE a.k.a. Professor X (N.W.A.), graced us last night with a killer set of old school electro, 80’s freestyle and proto hip hop....this was part of Peanut Butter Wolf‘s Stones Throw Party with Egon, James Pants, Dj Taktiks and myself (Barbi)....i was showing Arabian the pics i took while his buddies Egyptian Lover and Jamie Jupiter were in town playing one of our Dmoney parties, Activator...he says that he tours with Egypt and Jamie a fair bit and they have this live show that all 3 of them do...i hope that we’re able to bring all 3 of them back in this form…

Next its a race over to Drake Underground, where we’re bringing from our nation’s capital, The Jokers of The Scene. The Jokers’ production is so spot on right now, its disgusting. With them from Vancouver, Smoke & Mirrors (U-Tern & Neoteric), who have something coming out on Dubsidedlabel (Switch/Dave Taylor’s label). So, that’s two great Canadian acts tonight. And, through Her Majesties good graces (& NXNE), there shall be drinking till 4. I will be upstairs, however, in the Drake Lounge, so come check me!
