Our Annual Toronto Film Festival Party featuring Acid Girls!
You might recognise the name Acid Girls because you downloaded free mp3s from their really awesome blog (back when free music was a new idea). You might know the name because you downloaded their recent bangers off someone else’s blog (not theirs, though, it’s since retired).
But this past year Acid Girls have began establishing themselves for productions that are aware of the slicker sides of house, techno and hip hop, without forgetting their banging responsibility to the party.
And judging by their recent live sets, these guys have honed and refined their powers to reach the next level of party sorcery. Toronto, you’re due for a visit, and we’re proud to be the ones to bring you the city’s first appearance of Acid Girls.

Gingy & Bordello - Vaporizer EP Now Available On Beatport
Not too long ago, More Proof’s resident technerd Gingy started “jamming out” with another young upstart producer called Bordello. The value of their collabo was obvious - the resulting Vaporizer is their best production yet.
After a nice run of DJ support from the likes of Richie Hawtin, Simian Mobile Disco, Tim Green, Brodinski, Jokers of the Scene, and more, the ep is now available to everyone via the Beatport link below. Go Gingy!
P.S. Big up to our old pal (and recent Boys Noize signee) Rynecologist for the remix.

Dré-Bans: Double Rainbow Mix
Toronto’s in the middle of a scorcher this week, and there’s no way better to beat the heat than with a nice cold beverage and More Proof’s resident resident Dré-Bans’ brand-new Double Rainbow Mix. Normally I wouldn’t post about the weather, but it’s seriously hot as balls out here.

Nacho Lovers - Deeper promo mix
Long time no blog! Well we’ve finished hibernating and like a majestic grizzly bear we have awoken and are very hungry.
Luckily spring has blossomed and brought us the fruit of Nacho Lovers. Here’s a promo mix for their upcoming Fool’s Gold release Deeper.
What’s even better is the Deeper single includes a canadian remix selection featuring CFCF, Azari & III and Mike Mind.
You can find the mix after the jump.

Bishop Morocco: Last Year’s Disco Guitars
Depending on who you are, you might know Bishop Morocco best as James Sayce (ex-Tangiers, Deadly Snakes)’s new band or as Jake Fairley (aka Fairmont, on Border Community and Kompakt)’s new band, or maybe even from when I blogged about them last year. Or you might just know them as one of the brightest new lights in Toronto’s constellation of bands.
However you know them, take a gander at their new video, directed by the lovely Eva Michon. It’s basically pornography for people who grew up on The Smiths. Check it out on Vimeo, and be sure to get your free copy of the song at the Hand Drawn Dracula store.

BASICS001: Johnny Hockin
Over in scenic London, ON, Gingy and his crew have started a radio show on CHRW 94.9FM, and have asked none other than More Proof’s own Johnny Hockin to contribute to their guest mix segment.
Johnny’s in pretty good company, as future guests include Koreless, Andrew of Nacho Lovers, Egyptrixx, Hatchmatik, DJ Neoteric and Jokers of the Scene.

Model 500 — The Flow (Juan Atkins G-Funk Mix)
From the Favorite Songs Ever department.
The year is 1995. Techno pioneer Juan Atkins takes his own Model 500 moniker to a G-Funk place, and makes the best trip-hop song ever.
OK, so that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but this is one of the smoothest tracks I know.
P.S. Exotic Newark!
