Where Is Home, Quite a question, right ? yes, this song is entirely picked out of lived experience of the artist. Jaiksana was born in a refugee camp and due to consistent civil conflicts in his home country, he has lived most of his life searching the meaning of home and belonging. Did they say home is where the heart is, but what if you don't know where your heart is ?

Where is home - Jaiksana

Remix produced, played, arranged and mixed by Andrew Haskins aka DJ Pluto.

Travel back in time to Planet Fabulon's retro video game rave! Planet Fabulon is an inclusive, interactive, playful, sci-fi-fun themed event series based in Toronto. I opened this virtual party with some funky house, dance and tech house selections, including some fun twists on 90s classics. Enjoy!

This is my first set as a resident DJ of Architextures Toronto! Architextures is "a weekly celebration of diverse selections in electronic music brought to you by local artists and performers of all kind." This normally takes place at the well-loved Round Venue in Kensington Market but has since moved online during COVID-19. I'm excited to be a part of the first Thursday of the month, Architextures Light, with my teammate, Taliya Cohen. I hope you enjoy the mix!
