The mulit-venue Acoustic Extravaganza (April 24th, 2010) in support of the Shoppers Drug Mart® Weekend to End Women’s Cancers™ benefiting Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation, was a success.  Between the three open stages and the Grand Finale Fundraiser with Ottawa's own STAIRWELL LEO, $1056.00 was raised. 

WHAT
This mulit-venue Acoustic Extravaganza will feature a multitude of Ottawa’s finest local artists…there were so many people offering their time, we needed three venues to host them all! Amanda Cottreau and band STAIRWELL LEO will also be donating all proceeds from their grand finale show, to the cause.

Hey friends, check out my latest remix!
 

 
Always interested in feedback or collaboration opportunities.
 
Cheers,

Hey Folks, a friend of ours, Chloe Hall is touring across Canada and needs help finding a gig in Ottawa on either August 22nd or 23rd.  If you'd like to check out her website, it's http://www.chloehall.com.au.  She could really use the help - her band's gear was stolen in Victoria.  Anyways, if there's anything available, send an email to me at gower_matt@hotmail.com
 
Thanks!

Hey All,
 
We are the MudPlots, a country-punk band that has recently formed and played our first show last monday. 
You can check out a live recording of that performance at www.myspace.com/themudplots
Anywho, we just wanted to get our name out there incase theres bands lookin for other acts to perform with.
Also, I have years of experience of booking and promoting shows so I am sure we could all set something up quite easily with a great turnout.
Look us up and let us know if youd like to work with us.
Peace!

Hey folks, like the title of the post says, Capital Grass and the No Men are looking for a drummer.  We recently moved to Ottawa from Guelph, but our rhythm section decided not to make the trip, so at the moment we're just a banjo-guitar duo.  Our influences are Neko Case, the Sadies, the Black Keys & Elliott Brood just to name a few.  If you'd like to hear some of our songs, please visit www.myspace.com/capitalgrassandthenomen

Zero dollars. It's true. Wire and Light finished 10 songs and put 'em online. Download them and pass them around. Give them a listen like you used to do with albums from days of yore.
 
What does it sound like? Drum machines, synths, pop rock and roll.

And watch the video for the the song "Moments After Waking" here:
 

 
Thanks so much. Tell a friend.

Electronic music has several barriers that separate it from other musical genres. Like any sub-culture it’s got its own comprehensive vocabulary of descriptors; drum and bass, dub, trance, jungle, electro. The difference here is its hard lined adherence to the electro cultural isms, almost exclusive in their approach to the genre and its sub genres. As an artist you are designated by the intensity of your kick drum, the intensity of your breaks, and the range and depth of frequencies you explore.

Also exclusive to electronic music is its wayward definition of what music is, which sometimes borders on noise. Often without any apparent background in music theory, many of these artists approach their medium with a blank slate, ready to create a blazing whirlwind of crunching insanity without any regard for the past 100 years of popular music which is available in a record store near you. It’s liberating, it’s transient and it’s a blast beat to dance to. Their influences are exclusive, the sub genres defining the approach without need for influence from other musical styles, contemporary or otherwise. It reflects only itself and the street culture that birthed it.

 Why is the mircokorg such a common used tool in the Canadian indie scene....? let me do a quick demo for you......when experimenting with sythns, reading the manual is key....the korg can do anything...seriously read the manual its all there...brilliant arpeggios can come together will just a few keystokes and tweaks....fun stuff....working on MIDI tempo Syncs...exciting.
 
 
Here is my experimental glitched video demo of me using the MicroKorg. Enjoy:
