Future Classic: Kanye & Jay-Z & Frank Ocean “No Church in the Wild” (Video)
Let’s hope people in the streets of Montreal don’t get any ideas from this one. If the government doesn’t handle this situation and keeps playing hide and seek it could turn into this… But on the real, a beautiful and powerful video from Romain Gavras for what was my favorite …
Future Classic: DSTR “Reconstructed Memories”
These days in Quebec, it seems like a perfect time to reminisce about the past. You could think that the second album from DSTR, called Reconstructed Memories which is made from sampling of Quebec recordings spanning from the 50’s throught the 80’s is a little gimmicky. But that would be …

Future Classic: Photek + Pinch “Acid Reign” (Dubplate Version)
Dubstep really has become quite easy to make fun of these days. I don’t remember a music genre facing such a backlash from magazines, critics and bloggers. Thing is, as with absolutely any genre it’s always been about finding the gems. That elusive 5% of geniusness! In fact, you should …
