Live at Club Soda (2009-02-27)

Live at Club Soda
I was DJing at Club Soda (downtown Montreal) last friday, for the PROMODE 2009 event, organized by École Polytechnique’s Promo 133.
The evening started as a fashion show from 8:30 PM to about 10:30 PM, when the actual party started. The first DJ was mixing (and did a great job at starting the party and getting people to dance) from then until around 11:50 PM, when I took over. Then, I was mixing until around 1:05 AM, when the last DJ took over for the rest of the night.
It was a great evening, and I had lots of fun being there and DJing too. I hope the people that were there enjoyed it as much as I did! There must have been lots of work put into this evening to make it work like it did, because everything went smoothly throughout the night.
More after the break, including a download link to my mix, which was recorded live. (more…)

Other Party Mix Available (2008-07-12)
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008Here’s a mix I recorded a couple of months ago… The genres were a special request from a friend: Electro, House then Trance (it was a party for his birthday… that was the least I could do hehe). I have to say I’m particularly pleased with the progression, going from smooth/relax electro music to popular and simply classic house, then to melodic vocal trance.
New Mix Available (2008-09-19)
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008I recently (last friday) recorded a new “chillout” mix — the kind of mix to play at the beginning of a party, to let the people warm up before playing real dance/party tracks.
From what I’ve seen, it seems to work pretty well 🙂
This mix contains mainly electro/house tracks, and has the tracks labeled as chapters (see the Chapters menu if you play the file in iTunes) in the file. Let me know what you think (leave a comment) if you get to listen to it!
New Blog
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008Well that’s it pretty much it… I’m starting a new blog.
I’m a student in electrical engineering, with a passion for music, so I try to mix both when I can. I DJ in clubs once in a while (usually house music, although I would much rather be mixing groovy electro or trance music, but these styles of music are unfortunately not very popular here in Montreal), and I try to produce music when I find the time (as of now, trance music only).
This blog will probably talk about lots of different subjects, including music, software development (programming), hardware development (electronics, microcontrollers, DSPs, etc.), a mix of all these, and other subjects as I think of them.
I hope you enjoy it! Don’t hesitate to let me know what you think.
