Son Raw: Lunice & Hudson Mohawke are TNGHT

Son Raw will be opening for Lunice at the July 29th edition of Piknic Electronik. There’s an odd link between Glasgow and Montreal. Perhaps it’s our shared distaste of British rule or our love of fattening foods but Scottish label Lucky Me has found a rich vein in signing Montreal musicians from Jacques Green to Ango… Continue reading »

Son Raw: Paveun doesn’t know anybody else

Son Raw is going to be spinning LIVE on Nasty.FM with Habit & Pivot from 7-9PM EST. Fun fact, the first record I ever owned as a kid was an Alvin & The Chipmunks compilation of 80s hits: think “Uptown Girl” as sung by squeaky-voiced rodents. My favorite track on the LP was a brittle,… Continue reading »

Son Raw’s month in MTL

Son Raw spends most of his months in MTL. Book him in your city for a nominal fee. Lots of interesting music gets made in Montreal, particularly over the Winter months when nobody wants to leave the house for fear of yetis. Unfortunately, I don’t always have the time to properly document all of the… Continue reading »

Son Raw: The Wyld Stallyns most excellent adventure

Son Raw is there for you with some Sunday afternoon listening. Because I’m a sucker for Bill & Ted references (see our sidebar) and funky party beats. Also because the Wyld Stallyns are liable to pour tequila down your girl’s throat, take her home, never call her again and say questionable things about her mother.… Continue reading »

Son Raw: HeskHeskHesk reigns Supreme

Son Raw can’t be bought in cash. Maybe in strippers. For those who aren’t keen on my EDM writing, perhaps my close association with Hesk through ventures such as Project Sundays might seem like a conflict of interest – writers shouldn’t be dallying with artists and the such. Insiders will be quick to attest however… Continue reading »

Sach O: Who da Coldest NYE – The Promo Video

Sach O is the East Coast promoter man. Flyer on the sidebar aside, I haven’t been promoting Who Da Coldest NYE too hard on this site. This is out of respect for Jeff Weiss’ baby but mostly because studies show that none of you guys both live in Montreal AND come out to raves. And… Continue reading »

Sach O: Vilify Steps Up.

Sach O is going to grab a couple of tunes off of this one. Photo by Thorium Photography. Anyone can mix a couple of MP3s and call themselves a DJ this foul era – you find the hyped up genre of the day, jump on, have your lil’ 15 minutes and then you’re out the… Continue reading »

Son Raw – J’Aime Le Dubstep 138

Sach O is strapped like a squirrel with a gat. Once again it’s on. The fine folks at J’Aime Le Dubstep have seen fit to release my newest studio mix (my first one in a minute actually) and it’s a scorcher if I do say so myself. Going by vibe rather by genre, I went… Continue reading »

Sach O: Lunice keeps it One Hunned

Sach O can’t believe something good came of Montreal’s Hip-Hop scene. Those Scots at LuckyMe must really like Montreal. While most EDM labels have yet to realize there’s more to this fair city than guitar players in plaid shirts, those forward-thinking Glaswegians have signed not one but TWO acts from around here: House&B emotionalist Jacques… Continue reading »

Sach O: Living~Stone – Root Up EP

Sach O chant down Babylon. Dubstep’s worldwide ascension has no doubt been aided by the fact that it can be all things to all people. From its original expression of London’s urban dread, the genre has morphed into everything from guitar-free metal for the Facebook generation to neo-reggae to indie-approved gentility to proper electronica. The… Continue reading »
