Back again with another session! This time I am proud to present a special Step Dance performance by some friends from U of T's "Step It Up" ensemble.
Dj Sircut Breaker and myself will be providing live turntable accompaniment and hopefully pulling off something you may have not seen or heard before!
I am both excited and nervous!
Those visiting my site, hit me an email and I will place you + 1 on my gueslist.
Be sure to arrive early each month to receive a free copy of our latest cd. Fresh treats for the feets.
On to the recap of last month and our 3 year anniversary...........what else can I say but WOW! The energy in the room was pure heaven! The response from the crowd was the most positive I have ever experienced in all my years of djing! I will remember this nite for a long long time to come.
I wish I had some pics for everyone to enjoy but most all of us were so busy or caught up in ere'ting that none were taken! If anyone reading this has any photos from this nite please contact me. I would like to place some on this page.

3. WALL OF SOUND Weekly
w/ DJ General Eclectic
When: 1st Thursday of each month/ Next event: June 02nd (10pm - 2am)
Where: Beaconsfield (1154 Queen St. W)
$$$: FREE
You can catch me the 1st Thurs of each month over at the Beaconsfield Resto/Bar. It is a newly opened establishment that is a mix between a traditional English Style Pub and an Art Deco Lounge.
Wall Of Sound is a chance for me to delve further into my love of vintage American 60s & 70s blues, soul, funk and r&b. From classic heartbreaker type love songs, to unknown dusty ballads, to bottom heavy r&b sides. Lately I have been dropping anything I feel like.
So that means some artists you might hear at one of these nites include: Booker T, Stereolab, Led Zepplin, Gil Scott Heron, Eddie Bo, King Tubby, Horace Andy, Gal Costa, Johnny Cash & countless more.
I do take requests but reserve the right to assess the appropriatness of said request within that given moment. (ie: no Britney Spears, Abba, or please no 'something i can dance to')
All booking inquiries please contact this address.
