Cthulu Sleeps fan cover

I’m a pretty big fan of cover songs given the fact that I just released a cover song of This Is Our Night on my own record label. Here is a cover of the deadmau5 song Cthulu Sleeps. Pretty quality work if you ask me!

New Piece at the SAW Gallery

Theres a new exhibition in the SAW Gallery and it launched to coincide with the big Prairie Scene festival that is happening all over Ottawa this week. The entire Prairie Scene festival is happening all over Ottawa and looks at art from the Prairies (big surprise!).

I took a circuit bending and contact microphone workshop that taught us how to dig into cheap value village electronic toys in order to find modifications that that produce crazy sounds. Here is a video of some of the art on display at the SAW Gallery, check it out.

Anticipation for Gaga in Toronto March 3

I was at the incredible show in Toronto March 3, and one of the interesting videos I filmed was of the wave by the crowd.

There was some sort of delay to the show, almost 2 hours, however it was still a great show. Check out my earlier video of Gaga March 3, 2011

Check out the crowd doing the wave:

Drumcell Interivew

Electronic music producer Drumcell discusses some of his techniques in this interview video.

It starts off showing off the future place for a crazy warehouse party then cuts right to the rocking deep techno at the party. I really love the videos they have being projected!

Next they cut to his studio where he talks about how got into music playing guitar. His first forray came from reading about a producer who was able to produce his entire demo himself. This led him to learn about multi-track audio although he was into more aggressive band-type music.

Music Mondays: Cassius – Love You So (Skream Remix)

Let me start off by first warning: This is NOT the real music video for this song/remix.

I have been a big fan of the Skream remix to Cassius’ I Love You So ever since I first heard it a couple months ago. The original is released on the French electronic label Ed Banger (as in “head banger” pronounced by zee French) is very similar in sound yet radically different in style. I’ve been a fan of Justice and Uffie as well but haven’t heard enough other releases to really know for sure if I’m an Ed Banger myself when I listen to their tunes.

Now onto the video, this online re-edit is so perfectly done I can’t believe its not actually for this song. This is actually the video for the song “Luv Delux” by Cinnamon Chasers and was directed in 2009 by Saman Keshavarz.

Someone at Tempa (Skream’s label) should give Keshavarz a call:
