The Headliner: Annie Mac — Thurs. @ The Social

This Thursday, Toronto will welcome Annie Mac, the widely recognized host of a number of shows on BBC’s Radio 1.

This will be crazy.

The Opener: Tommie Sunshine & Felix Cartal — Sat. @ London Music Hall

If it’s a roadtrip that you fiend, then you might as well make the two hour trek down to London, Ontario and check out the London Music Festival’s tent party.  It will be a star-studded affair with both Tommie Sunshine and Mr. Felix Cartal on the decks. Definitely worth a nauseating drive West on the 401 highway.

“The man the dubstep scene has come to know simply as Martyn has been a drum & bass DJ in his native Holland for more than a decade (he even recently collaborated with Mancunian D&B king Marcus Intalex). Deykers grew up in Eindhoven, but eventually settled in Rotterdam (his record label, 3024, is named after his old zip code there), and his fingerprints are all over the Red Zone D&B club nights that were held throughout the country.” (Thanks xlr8r.com) Be sure to check out the city’s solution for dubstep, Wrongbar Sunday.
