M3TTA in for ALEX GOLD - The Xtravaganza Mix - Show 140

Kids on a Bridge is an organization dedicated to exploring the farthest reaches of the universe, both macro and micro, external and internal. Our members reach out and gather up information, converting it back down to sounds, so that it reaches the ears of those who would otherwise be deaf to its beauty. We are children full of hope and wonder as we stand on the bridge between worlds.

It Was Time to Leave is our debut project, the combined sensor data of a generation ship from a parallel world. Internal, external, bio-monitoring and ship’s log data have been combined to transport the listener along with the ship and crew through the cold of space and that most ancient enemy distance. 

It is the drowsy childhood car ride home, it is the late night train out of town, it is the soft descent into sleep on a long flight writ large. At once a feeling of isolation and comfort. Solar winds pelt the sail with photons like hot raindrops, gravitational waves lap at the hull, radiation and cosmic rays kept at bay by the hull as the crew winds down for their long sleep.

I had the honour of being booked to perform the Festival Closing Set @ Timeless 2025. Not only that but I had the privilege of playing on the Bassix Soundystem which is by far my favorite sound system in Canada!

It was a wild set full of smiling dancing people. The combo of silly, funky and badass was enthusiastically embraced by the crowd. We built an epic closing together!

Check out the amazing video montage on my Youtube channel, IG or FB.

Mega Big Up to Musik Me Luv, Bassix Crew, and of course to FESTOCHE BAMBOCHE !! I am in awe of all the hard work y'all put in to give this gift of a festival to our crazy electronic music community!

Special shout out to Wally & Phillip for filming my set! And to Lockout for the drone footage! The official video of my set will be launched in November!  

Special shout out to Yander & Pierre-Luc for stage managing and for letting me play an encore since the crowd was yelling for more! 

Shout to the creative teams that designed and decorated this amazing stage : Post Bliss, La Tek Crew, Chloé Lapointe and Charlou Florent.

Before I began my set I made a quick speech dedicating this set to the memories of Jonas Abel & Marguerite Blanche. 

My first performance at Timeless / Good Vibes was in 2018. I had retired from the festival scene for about 10 years. I had been in a rut creatively until I discovered this new style of funky bass music. Which inspired me to send in an application to perform. But I didn't have the confidence to propose just a bass music set so I gave them a few options of styles of set I could do.

This is how I met Jonas Abel. He booked me and insisted I play a set of this new weird funky bass music I had been experimenting with but had rarely DJ'd at a gig. 

He gave me the confidence to go for it and re-invent myself. Fast forward a few years and this style has completely re-vitalized my career! So cheers Jonas for being so supportive and recognizing how amazing this style of music is.

I warned him that putting me on the Main Stage after 10 hours of Psy Trance would clear the dancefloor and kill the vibe. He said that's fine, you will build a new vibe. 

But this wasn't exactly the kind of reaction I was dreaming of for my triumphant return to the festival scene after a ten year hiatus!

So sure enough 5 minutes into my set my nightmare came true and I cleared the entire dance floor except for one person : a young woman with a unique sense of style and unique dance moves who danced the entire set.

We had a private party just the two of us for at least 20 minutes before more people joined. By the end of the set we had a rocking dance floor thanks to her enthusiasm.

That's how I met Marguerite Blanche. In my most disappointed moment when I had cleared the entire dance floor she was my lifeline. We locked eyes and had a blast just the two of us.

So I dedicate this set to the memories of JONAS & MARGUERITE ! You were taken from us way too young. I'm grateful for how you touched my life when I really needed encouragement. 

You played a key role in my evolution from clearing dancefloors with my weird Bass Music to playing the closing set to the entire festival. Thank you. You are deeply missed by the community.

xoxo

TIMELESS 2025 - Festival Closing Set

Progressive House meets Melodic House in a dreamy fusion of warm synths and driving beats

Memento

A song I made for Matheo. Here are the lyrics:

Intro:
Yeahhh ohh
We keep rising
No matter the climb
Through silent nights
To hearts aligned

Chorus:
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Guiding us through the longest night
We hold that hold that Matheo light
A quiet strength burning soft and bright
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Hope that grows even in the fight
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Love around him lifting him right

Verse 1:
Born with a courage deep and rare
A little soul wrapped in loving care
He has faced the shadows crossed the pain
But he finds his way back again and again
Two tiny hands with a tender touch
Yet he shows the world he feels so much
And every few months like a breath of grace
He speaks a small word that lights the place

Chorus:
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Guiding us through the longest night
We hold that hold that Matheo light
A quiet strength burning soft and bright
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Hope that grows even in the fight
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Love around him lifting him right

Bridge:
Lucero's love is a steady flame
Every heartbeat calling out her name
Rolando stands with a steady hand
Strong and proud as a father can
And nurses gather with gentle hearts
Each shift tending their healing part
A new home rising on Redeemer Ranch
A dream for the family a brand new branch
Together they rise like a woven prayer
A circle of hope that is always there

Verse 2:
Peg feedings flowing soft and slow
Helping him grow as the moments go
He plays with joy in his quiet way
Turning simple moments into brighter days
And soon he will rest in a peaceful place
Redeemer Ranch built with loving grace
He is more than a patient he is living proof
That strength can bloom under any roof
So we walk beside him come what may
Learning from him day after day

Final Chorus:
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Fuel for the soul he is here to stay
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Every dawn brings a brighter day
We hold that hold that Matheo light
From his home to the skies of gray
We hold that hold that Matheo light
Shining strong in his gentle way

Matheo's Light

Alex Burn - BURNOUT #039 [Hard & Fast]

From underground dance floors to global festival stages, GUAPO has built a solid reputation as a DJ, atmospheric guitarist and producer who thrives on the unexpected. With festival appearances spanning three continents, including Glastonbury (UK) and Telerama Dub Festival (Paris), his electrifying sets have earned him international recognition. 

His DJ mixes regularly chart in the global TOP 5 on Mixcloud, cementing a place in the world of Bass Music DJ's. As a Composer he was nominated for a Jutra Award for Best Film Score. 

GUAPO’s résumé boasts collabs with Grammy Award winners like Youth (Killing Joke, The Orb) and Luisito Quintero (Masters at Work, Tito Puente). As well as with Juno Award winners like Alpha Yaya Diallo. 

As DJ & Music Coordinator for fashion icon Jean Paul Gaultier’s PINKARNAVAL and Cirque Du Soleil founder Guy Laliberté's TERRAKARNAVAL, he played to crowds of over 15,000 spectators, fusing music, fashion and circus arts into unforgettable spectacles. 

As a producer & guitarist, he contributed to multiple albums by UK world-beat pioneers SUNS OF ARQA, blending global dub grooves, classical Indian Raga and cutting-edge electronic production.

As a co-founder of the Flamingo Funk crew, he books bass music headliners to tour in Canada. He performed closing sets after iconic artists like breakbeat heavyweight Krafty Kuts and Swing N Bass founder Mista Trick. 

Combined with his explosive festival-closing sets at Tribunion Boreal, Khumeia, Timeless and Lucioles, he is building a solid reputation as a top notch closing DJ.

In his hometown of Montreal, GUAPO has performed at some of the city's biggest events, including Montreal Jazz Fest, Bal en Blanc, Just For Laughs, Lumifest, Eclipse, Good Vibes, Groove & Bass, and marquee venues like Olympic Stadium, Rialto, Metropolis, Place Des Festivals and the Satosphere Dome. 

Guapo brings his genre-blending sound to the airwaves with two monthly radio shows. He’s a resident on CKUT 90.3 FM’s The Magic Roundabout, founded by influential Montreal DJ Andy Williams. The first Sunday of every month Guapo drops the latest in underground Bass Music sounds. 

Whereas on LaFaceB.Live, he co-hosts Y Fait Chaud, offering monthly mixes that explore soulful House with an Afro Latin Brazilian twist. Previously, he hosted the world music show Global Grooves.

Musically, GUAPO is a sonic shapeshifter—his Bass Music sets are a wild tribute to sample culture, weaving together anthems from Funk, Soul, Blues, Reggae, Rock, Latin, Brazilian, Disco, Metal, Swing, and Hip-Hop. These classic sounds are chopped, glitched, and remixed into futuristic forms like Glitch Hop, Ghetto Funk, Breaks, Bass House, UK Garage, DnB, Ragga Jungle, and Swing & Bass.

But what sets GUAPO apart is his electric stage presence. A natural showman, he thrives on crowd interaction, fueling a high-energy atmosphere that turns dance floors into full-blown frenzies of absurd, anarchic fun. His performances are a wild experience, driven by badass bass from the bowels of Hell !

While his main focus these days is Bass Music, Guapo is versatile in other genres.

His HOUSE MUSIC sets are a seamless fusion of tribal percussion, AfroBeat Funk, Latin sophistication and Brazilian sensuality, expertly layered with soulful disco House and funky Electro.

In his WORLD MUSIC sets, he weaves a tapestry of sounds from India, the Middle East, the Maghreb and Anatolia, melding them with the  resonant vibrations of Dub, Downtempo, Breakbeat, and Deep House. Taking listeners on a journey across continents and cultures.

His DOWNTEMPO performances are an eclectic blend of Jazz, Soul, Reggae, Brazilian-Latin Lounge, and Hip Hop, infused with the melancholy atmospheric textures of Chillstep, Trip Hop and Synth Pop.  Offering a laid-back experience that hits you right in the feels.
