Future Classic: Levon Vincent “Specks Jam”
This was one of the very last cuts that got left out of our last MIMS Show but I kind of regret it now. Let’s be honest though, this track will probably find its way on one our mixes at some point as it is indeed a “future classic“. You regular …

Future Classic: Lion Babe “Treat Me Like Fire”
Every time we put out one of our MIMS Radio Shows, we always like to ask people what their favorite discoveries were. So after our #61 show (link) a few people answered that they loved Lion Babe’s “Treat Me Like Fire” so we figured we’d share it as a “future …

All Vinyl! “Montréal is well-known around the world for its different music scenes (indie, abstract, techno, house) quality events (FIJM, Osheaga, Igloofest, Mutek). In this city, one of the missing …

Forgotten Treasure: Don Ray “Got To Have Loving” (1978) + The Revenge Rework
Don Ray’s Got To Have Loving features one of my favorite Disco breaks of all time. This song was among my earliest encounters with classic Disco music, and was the beginning of my obsession with Disco breaks. When I used to DJ, I’d shamelessly drop this jam in half way …

Future Classic: Chilly Gonzales “Something About Us” (Daft Punk Cover)
Chilly Gonzales is a bath robed pianist, a prodigious rapper, a world record holder (for playing a concert which lasted 26 consecutive hours), and a self proclaimed musical genius. His life is an expensive movie (he’s backlit) and after countless sequels, he’s still the opposite of peaceful (the opposite of …

Future Classic: Bennetrhodes “Tenderness”
I came across Kan Sano’s album Fantastic Farewell in 2011 and have been a fan of his ever since. I was so enthused by his music that I actually sent him an email to tell him so (my level of enthusiasm was matched in his reply). What I appreciate most about Kan …
