| News | Interview with one of dance music’s true legends Greg Wilson Posted: 14 Sep 2008 02:48 PM CDT Before nu disco blew up, many children of disco's electronic hybrids and rarities looked to Greg Wilson for their education.

| News | Titonton Duvanté drops science and gets salacious with ‘Reverse Cowboy Pt. 1’ Posted: 14 Sep 2008 12:51 AM CDT Some things seem to come far too early and often - Mondays, for example.

Although he's been enchanting listeners and delighting audiences for almost 20 years, Mssr Duvanté has never had difficulty finding inspiration as he brings love, lust and sexual healing with the release of 'Reverse Cowboy Pt. 1'.

| News | Review: North American premiere of Berlin Calling with Paul Kalkbrenner Posted: 11 Sep 2008 10:34 PM CDT Sunday night in Toronto during the Toronto International Film Festival in the heart of downtown (Little Italy to be exact), Paul Kalkbrenner stood outside of the Royal Theatre as people lined up to go inside. He, as the star actor, along with film director Hannes Stohr of the new film Berlin Calling, waited in anticipation of the North American premiere of their film. The rogue screening organizers, Platform Events and Xanuradio.com were bustling around – promoting, and doing press releases and media outreach - earlier that week up until the last minute to ensure that things went smoothly. That night as people entered the theatre and seats began to fill, the anticipation started to dissipate. It was clear that the screening would be well-attended by electronic music fans in Toronto. |
