Where did the summer go? ALSO: Stevie Wonder vs Skank Honto - FREE DOWNLOAD!

Holy smokes, I just realized I went the entire summer without posting here, meaning that you've missed out on countless great events including a personal favourite of my opening for the Funk Hunters here in Toronto back in July. To make up for it, perhaps you should have some free music....,

ATTENTION GHETTO FUNK ENTHUSIASTS!
A while ago I put together a remix of Stevie Wonder's Signed, Sealed, Delivered.
I've decided to put it up for free download, and am happy to say its even earned the FreeBreaksBlog.com's seal of approval as part of it's weekly "Nu Funk Round Up".

Thursday May 16th - Handlebar in Kensington Market

Last minute mention to the fact I'll be playing this Thursday at Handlebar.
This cool and cozy venue is located in Kensington Market, Toronto and supplies a nice list of beverages and a small food menu, and has a patio! Come give your long weekend an early start while I supply a mix of nu-funk and ghetto-funk.

Otherwise, continue catching me at No One Writes to the Colonel every second Friday of the month! 

Skank Honto - Basslines Included - Volume 2!

new Skank Honto dj mix for April 2013!!!
this mix follows the intent of the original Basslines Included mix set, in that it covers a lot of music spectrums including some serious funk, bass, breaks, and even a few places beyond including some drum & bass this time.

February = Massive!

oi! It's only been 5 months since a blog update, which means I didn't tell you about a lot of really cool events that were going on like NYE at Andy Poolhall or the Annual Holiday Shaker in Stratford... But there is no reason in reminding you about things you can't do, so I'll just throw out some things you should know about that are still upcoming. 

Friday February 8th - 
Funkin' It Up! will be at No One Writes to the Colonel, bringing the feel good vibes to No One Writes to the Colonel as Skank Honto and Splattermonkey do every second Friday of the month. Funky beats from over 5 decades in every genre and every tempo. 

Friday February 22nd - 
cirQlar & Electro Swing Club Toronto present The Lost Fingers! 
I'm lucky enough to be on the bill and will be bringing and extra swingin' mix of ghetto funk, party jams, and dancefloor bangers to the masses at Revival on College Street in Toronto.
