In order to not clog this message board with my info, i'm just going to keep updating this
thread.

- March 14 2003

Last I just totally went on this crazy mission and completely re-did my website. Go check
it out, http://www.thephatconductor.com. It's got a brand new look I made out of photos of
factories I sneak into, a radio section, new sets, a new 12", and tons of other goodies. 

I added a new episode of Torontobreaks Radio today too, here's the info for that: 

Busy busy busy... 

Torontobreaks Radio ¡V Matt Le Monkeh Feature 

This week¡¦s episode is on more of a harder, electronic tip and starts off with Matt EL
Monkeh banging out the slammin¡¦ Nuschool Breaks. This guy¡¦s got tight-ass mixing,
wicked track selection, and excellent programming, give him a shout at
mattlemonkeh@hotmail.com. For the second half of the show I get a little wacky and dig
out all kinds of crazy tripped out tunes. 

Here are the links for this week¡¦s episode: 

http://djshows.com/shows/torontobreaksradio.ram 

¡Kand here¡¦s last week¡¦s episode:

Torontobreaks - April Fool’s Day Show feat Decepticon

This week’s show marks the return to our Tuesday night timeslot and features Decepticon,
an incredibly skilled house/breaks/techno DJ from Toronto. Decepticon is a Toronto
staple, playing a wide variety of styles he is always guaranteed to mercilessly pound the
dancefloor with an endless barrage of highly technical insanity. He can mix, cut, scratch,
juggle, you name it, and his track selection is truly phenomenal. 
www.decepticon.cjb.net

In the first hour I rock it on more of an electronic tip than usual, showcasing a lot of
work by Gabor Deutsch (my hero this week) on the Chi label from Hungary, the originators
of the absolutely devastating Crash and Carry samplers. Gabor Deutsch is also known as
Raster and Anorganik and his staggering discography spans many genres including Breaks,
Jungle/DnB, Garridge, and Downtempo/Trip-Hop. You can learn more about him and about Chi
at www.chi-recordings.com .

Here’s the links:

http://www.thephatconductor.com/ThePhatConductor-LiveApril1.mp3
http://www.thephatconductor.com/Decepticon-2G3.mp3

…and here’s the links to last week’s show which featured Jay Cunning (UK)

http://www.thephatconductor.com/JayCunning-PressureBreaksGray.mp3
http://www.thephatconductor.com/ThePhatConductor-LiveMar20.mp3

Due to server restrictions I’ll only be posting the guest mp3s for 1 week on my website
starting next week, so if you want Jay’s set, you had better get it soon. I’m working on
getting another, faster host for the mp3s, the amount of traffic that the show has
generated has been staggering. Check it out: www.thephatconductor.com/webstats Good thing
my webmaster is a kindly Mormon in Michigan and he's sorting me out with faster free
hosting soon : )

Enjoy the show, and don’t forget that you can always find tons of music, Torontobreaks
Radio info, and my art and design work at www.thephatconductor.com, it’s much more than
just my DJ promo site.

Peace!

Torontobreaks Exclusive: Anorganik (Hungary) + Andrew Spence (BC)

Ok, due to the excessively huge amount of awesome demos flooding my mailbox I’ve decided
to take a back seat to these two truly brilliant sets: a Torontobreaks Radio exclusive,
all original set from Anorganik (Hungary), and then at the 55 minute mark Andrew Spence
(BC) rocks an utterly disgusting DJ mix titled Deeper Than Dark. 

Gábor Deutch aka Raster became known first as Anorganik, but he is that kind of guy who
has a minimum of thousand alter egos to counterbalance his constant moves in and out of
tons of different styles. He steps up with an all original showcase from his truly
immense discography. You may remember me playing Neo – Diskhead (Anorganik Rework)
excessively over the last few weeks, this is the guy. This set is a Torontobreaks Radio
exclusive too by the way, but not for long with those juicy mp3s on the wicked new
nuclearcrayon.net server at http://thephatconductor.com ... You can get more info and
music from Gabor Deutsch, as well as many other wicked Hungarian artists at
http://www.chi-recordings.com. Any country with rasta sheepdogs HAS to have good breaks…


http://www.thephatconducutor.com/torontobreaksradio.ram
http://www.thephatconductor.com/Anorganik-TorontobreaksExclusive.mp3

00:00	minus 8 - badman & throbin' (gábor deutsch lovely dub) 05:24	homegrown - my kinky
pink room (gábor deutsch vocal mix)	 08:51	montefiori cocktail - on a clear day (gábor
deutsch remiks) 13:17	gábor deutsch - retina stars 17:13	neo - diskhead (anorganik
rework) 22:53	amb - moxa (raster's rewire) 30:01	anima sound system feat mc spex & mc
aktarvata from asian dub foundation - elég volt (anorganik rework) 35:26	raster -
hardwired 41:06	anorganik - elektroshock 45:02	raster - spiral transform 50:50	raster -
steelspider

Our second set is by Andrew Spence, a disgustingly skilled and diverse DJ who’s been
rocking it in Vancouver, BC since ’89 as Dj Slim. This mix, Deeper than Dark is very
smoothly assembled, flows beautifully for a dance floor, and he takes it over the edge
into absolute sickness with disgusting scratching at just the right points. Any of our
Toronto listeners can see Andrew live April 18 at Focus with DJ Punk-Roc, Robb G,
D-Monic, and Tasc. Hit up http://www.dmonic.com for info on that one.

si begg – eurostar (tipper rework)
electric erop – switchshift 
sonic infusion – reformatted (general midi remix)
bogey man v lombardo - disturbed

flash brothers – hazy march (ils remix)

Don’t forget you can get last week’s episode featuring Decepticon at
http://www.thephatconductor.com .

Much love and respect to:

-This week’s guests (and all other who have sent demos)
-Greg Weld for the awesome web hosting and support, given out of pure love for music.
- http://www.djshows.com for gosting the show
-Farbsie for letting me witness the true magnitude of his sick record collection.

Watch out for sets from: 

BLIM (UK) 
Son of the Electric Ghost (Bassdrop, Texas) 
…and another Torontobreaks Radio exclusive: 
Jay Cunning v Terry Hooligan (of the Atomic variety) Live on 4 decks in Spain!

Torontobreaks – School’s Out! feat Resin Dogs/Super Dense Child

OK, I’m FINALLY done exams, etc. and have time to rock some SERIOUS Torontobreaks action…
This week’s show is a 3+ hour monster with two guests. 

Our first guest is Chill Will aka Super Dense Child from Resin Dogs. He sent me his
albums and a wicked Aussie hiphop comp he put together for Marble Bar a while back called
Burning Issue. For the first hour I rock mostly tracks from these releases and then I bust
loose with some hiphop, acid jazz, psychedelic dub/jungle, and then later ragga jungle…

CPI has long been a staple of the Ottawa underground scene playing everything from
downtempo to IDM, ambient to underground hiphop. This set is CD 1 from his double CD
Chinchillin’ released independently a little while ago and it totally rules. You can get
a hold of CPI at: http://listen.to/thetastates Where you can also download a TON of free
mixes.

This week’s show is totally over the top, Elite Force, Kraymon, AND the new Skeewiff
album!?!? Man oh man I LOVE my internet radio…

Elite Force

Elite Force aka Lunatic Calm is one of breakbeat’s national treasures, belting out
disgusting tunes in shocking quantity on labels like W9Y, Chi, Phonomental, Faith and
Hope, Fat, TCR, Moonshine Green, and his own Fused and Bruised imprint. His contributions
to our music simply cannot be overstated. You can check him out here:
http://www.fab.uk.com/eliteforce

sHack’s been hiding in the studio for the last few months finishing 7 remixes,
collaborating with Meat Katie, and rocking his Strongarm Sessions show on nubreaks.com.
He’s currently touring North America and the UK to celebrate the long-awaited release of
the Elite Force album No Turning Back in June. Somehow he found the time to send me this
wicked new set, cheers fella!

Skeewiff/Jalapeno Feature mixed by The Phat Conductor

The third set of this especially lavish episode is a feature on the new Skeewiff album
Cruise Control mixed up by yours truly. This album is utterly disgusting, mad funky
instrumentation over cut up breakbeats that really blurs the line between electronics and
funky band jams. Every track is a different take on their sick style and it hasn’t left my
CD player all week. Truly brilliant! It seems these days that Jalapeno Records can do no
wrong… http://www.jalapenorecords.com. If you liked the Resin Dogs feature, School’s Out

Peace!

PS Cheers to all of those who helped me in my house hunt, I’ve found my dream place and
I’m pretty excited about it. Ever since I met Algorithm and Troll when I was 14 and they
did a live PA for me in their Kensington Market apartment I’ve always wanted to live
there and produce. Now I have tuned out and I’m moving in with Marcus Visionary of
Visionary Recordings/Vinyl Syndicate fame. The place is totally wicked, cheap, and in my
ideal location, I couldn’t ask for anything more…

http://www.djnokturnal.ca/music/travLinty.ram

I met this badass through the Torontobreaks message boardwhere he was posting tons of
absolutely wicked dj sets. His tastes are very refined, and he targets his mixes at both
the connoisseur and the dancefloor. My favourite set of his is “Travelling Linty”, a set
he made for his friend Amanda, who was leaving to travel the globe. Touching sentiment
and a wicked set of choons mixed with great care. Noice! Be sure to hit up his wicked
website for a mixsets.

6 Lee Coombs/ Lamb Sweet/ Perfecto Breaks

Torontobreaks – Son of the Electric Ghost, Jay Cunning & Terry Hooligan 

This week marks the Canadian debut of one of my favourite artists ever, Son of the
Electric Ghost from Bless records in Texas. I’m also posting a link to Jay Cunning and
Terry Hooligan live on 4 decks in Spain as well as an interview I did with Jay. Enjoy!

This maniac has been seriously wrecking shop down there in Bassdrop, Texas (yes that’s
his real address) running Bless Records. His dark, synth-heavy, tie-your-head-in-knots
nuschool breaks style is just sickening, and this set is no exception. Bill keeps it real
to his artistic intentions on such another level its ridiculous… Watch out for his new
alter-ego The Disciple Grin out soon on Bless records. 

The Disciple Grin - Odditease 
The Disciple Grin - Flex 
Son of the Electric Ghost – The Fuzz 
Son of the Electric Ghost – Crowd React 
Son of the Electric Ghost – Thanks 2 You 
The Disciple Grin – Complicate the Sequence 
Son of the Electric Ghost – Mysterious (Homicide Mission) 
Son of the Electric Ghost – Awkward 
Son of the Electic Ghost – Bring It

Jay Cunning Interview 

TPC: So tell us a little about yourself. We already know you're a pom and you like
breaks, you were voted best DJ by nubreaks.com you've been playing since 89. That's in
every interview, let's have some dirt! 

JC: I've been promoting Global:Beats with Ian Davy for 2 years and we've recently moved
to a perfect venue in Camden which has seen us bring in DJs like Aquasky, Atomic
Hooligan, Elite Force, Mechanoise Sound System to mention a few and as the venue is
designed for live PA's we've had some amazing live appearances from R-Kidz & Noise (aka
The Lawgivers) as well as monthly live shows from next year. 

I have 2 radios shows, a weekly show with special guests on www.breaksfm.com
(www.nubreaks.com) and a monthly residency on www.groovetech.com which is the 3rd Friday
of every month from 8-10pm GMT. 
Production wise I've just finished a track for Backroom records called Driven, I've also
just signed to 2S2 and working with the 2 sinners on a few tracks as well as DJing with
the 2S2 world tour in 2003. Got planned production with Mechanoise, Quest & Dj Era coming
up in the next few months. 

As well as being with Lily Management I've also just signed to Satisfaxion who are the
biggest promotion / agency in Spain, really looking forward to working with these guys as
they hold parties for anything up to 9000 well up for it Breaks nutters on a regular basis
and are the main drive for Breakbeat in Spain. 
Also sharing reviews duties for breaking point magazine with Iytal & SOTO! 
oh and I'm starting a new label with 2 well know breaks artists... watch this space for
more info! 

TPC: A lot of breaks start and stop in the UK. Tell us about some underground producers
or up and comers to watch out for. How about letting us in on who is pumping out the mad
bootlegs? Anyone you would recommend? Any beans to spill? 

JC: There are a lot of good producers out there but ones to watch for are producers like
Starfire, The Automators and Grim Bleepers. They've only done a few tracks between them
but for first outings they look really promising! As for more established artists I would
say Atomic Hooligan as they are really working on their sound to incorporate a more
musical, soulful element to Breaks and yet keeping the club energy needed for dance
floors. 

TPC: We don't have nearly enough UK slang over here, care to enlighten us? 

JC: If you hungry - "I'm like the Wolf" as in the Duran Duran tracks that says hungry
like the wolf! 
"You have a Giraffe (laugh) mate!" 

TPC: Where in Europe are breaks doing well other than the UK. We're sick of hearing about
bloody England! 

JC: Spain & Australia regularly talked about for their breaks scene with regular crowds
of 1000-10'000 clubbers. For up and coming I'd say places like Serbia & Romania, I've
played and both in the last few months and the music scene there is so fresh as its all
still fairly new to everyone, reminds me of the old warehouse parties! 

TPC: What are your feelings on Final Scratch? 

JC: Never touched it! 

TPC: To mix or not to mix... it's a dying art Jay, any words on this subject? 

JC: Bollox! 

TPC: What's your most hysterical/nasty/weird/unbelievable party story? 

JC: Well one that's printable would be the time me & Terry Hooligan were in a club and
Terry being Terry decides to start breakdancing in the middle of the dance floor. So me
thinking it's a good idea to join in and impress the ladies I decide to try spinning on
my head resulting in me falling straight over and kicking one of them in the head!
Luckily no one was hurt… except for my pride! 

TPC: What do you feed your brain? 

JC: Microwaves from my cell phone 

TPC: Let’s say that you suddenly had the power to make any change that you wanted in the
breaks scene. What change would it be and why? 

JC: The scene doesn’t need any change as its progressing in the right direction with
artists / DJs / Promoters all doing their thing but working towards one common goal. Only
change I'd like to see is more support from people into the music actually in real breaks
clubs! There’s a lot of people that you see talk a about the scene and the music but only
ever go to clubs like Fabric! 

TPC: What was the best set of any kind you have ever seen? You know, the one that made
you thank God over and over again for birthing you into such circumstances that you could
witness such a glorious life-altering performance. 

JC: Ellis D @ Dreamscape in 1993 - The man’s a no nonsense DJ using nothing but pure tune
selection and a chopped up mixing style, he tore the club to pieces! 

TPC: What was your favourite gig ever? 

JC: Exit festival in Yugoslavia Playing to 20'000 people in an old fortress. The main DJ
stage was in a trench that the Austrians dug to fight the Turkish, it was a real buzz to
see loads of people dancing where once there was war! 

TPC: Okay wicked Jay, good to hear you’re keeping busy without losing a sense of humour.
Thanks again for doing the show and interview, Peace!
