Forgotten Treasure: Max Berlin “Elle et moi” (1987)
This is some serious sleazy disco action right here, straight out of Belgium from the gloriously cheesy 80’s. I discovered this record not that long ago and after about 5 seconds I was in love with it. Really simple, minimal disco à la Giorgio Moroder or Cerrone, actually Max Berlin …
Sparkz “Jacques de la Jungle” (Sparkz resync)
Very nice little re-edit from the Montreal homie Sparkz. He’s a very quiet dude but the guy has one of the best batting averages out there. Average meaning, the number of stuff he sends me of his VS the number that I like. In fact, his batting average is almost …
Forgotten Treasure: The Whispers “Keep On Loving Me” (1983)
I was racking my brain to find a “forgotten treasure” gem to share with you all and I remembered a bunch of cool stuff played by the homie Lefto last night in Montreal, as expected goodies from left and right, new and old. Just the way we like it over …

Free Download: Onra “Keep On Loving Me”
Our good homie ONRA is in the holiday mood and giving away one of his tracks that was released earlier this year on a Japanese project. I’ve been playing both the tracks from the vinyl at pretty much all of my gigs so here’s your chance to get in on …
Forgotten Treasure: Peter Godwin “French Emotions” (1982)
Going to be sharing a few of my favorite selections from our pretty insane adventure we called 24 HOURS OF VINYL. It was a pretty huge success and it was, at least for me, one of the best moments of my year. So many dj’s came through with their vinyl …

Moovmnt “The Future of Funk 2”
We’re back to the future like Doc Brown & Marty McFly! This time around dropping a sequal to ‘The Future of Funk’ mix. Me and Mr. Speak got so many positive reactions about the first one, we decided to do another one. It wasn’t very easy to keep the quality …
Forgotten Treasure: Ray Parker Jr. & Raydio “Still in The Groove” (1981)
This one is from my secret stash. I’ve been playing this track at pretty much every opportunity ever since Montreal homie Dj Kobal told me about it 5-6 years ago. What’s great about it is that it’s not rare at all. It’s a pretty common early 80’s record from Ray …

Future Classic: Toro Y Moi “Freaking Out” EP
You probably thought Toro Y Moi was a band we would leave for Pitchfork and the likes but hey, if it’s dope (and it is) then it’s a more than welcome addition to MIMS! Often labeled as “chill wave” (yes, it’s an actual genre apparently) I’ve been onto Toro Y …
