Here is the live recording of my set at this year’s Front Republic festival. 

That gig is definitely one of my highlights of this past Summer. Front Republic is such an incredible festival and at the heart of its success is its community. I still remember how responsive, attentive and passionate the crowd was during my set. It brings back such great memories and puts a smile on my face when I remember all the familiar faces and new ones I met during that day. The energy of the crowd during my set was phenomenal and even though I only had 1 hour and ½ to write a musical story, I found a way to play the unexpected and it was amazing. Two of my unreleased tracks are found in there, which will both be released early in 2023. I truly hope you’ll enjoy this musical journey as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Mitch Oliver @ FRP August 2022

Cheers. I despise this wheel of those who feast on past glories and vain bloodlines that disregard and pillage earth. I would tell the world a bit about myself but it’s such a secret I was told to guard it with out exception. Perhaps, I can say , I can end war, violence, poverty , and hunger. I just need to speak to the oppressor of vapidity that resides in this realm and extinguish the toxic ecosystem said oppressor(s) loves to see those sufferings. I am here to help. Find my center of consciousness, and we can begin to heal and communicate for a Prometheistic future of abundance. Cheers. ♒️♒️💨💨🪜🪜🌿🌿🌿💐💐💐⚖️🎧🎧🎧🌞🌞🎼🎼💺💺☄️☄️🙃🙃🦋🦋🦋🌎🌎🌎🏝️🏝️🌱🌱🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️🤔🤔🐚🐚🌀🌀🌀🌀🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🪡🪡☯️☯️🍋🍋🛰️🛰️🪴🪴🌙🌙🎁🎁🎁🎵🎵🎵👨🏻‍💻👨🏻‍💻🪻🪻3️⃣3️⃣🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸7️⃣9️⃣9️⃣7️⃣🍄🎹♾️🚲🚲🚲1️⃣💮💮💃🕺2️⃣🏪4️⃣📙♾️

Founder of @slapped-records

Montreal's own Mitch Oliver, a trailblazer in the East Coast melodic wave, isn't just a DJ/Producer and Sound Engineer with over 2M Spotify streams; he's a musical missionary, spreading positive vibes and uniting people through his art.

Signed to prestigious labels like Get Physcial, Glasgow Underground,  Kindisch, TrybesOf, Hoomidas, and XYZ, Mitch's deep, emotive rhythms have earned him acclaim and support from icons like Lee Burridge and Hernan Cattaneo.

His performances, a masterclass in subtle and sophisticated electronic music, resonate with energy, whether it's getting "Mitch Slapped" by the exhilarating drops or swaying to the subtle beats of his label, Slapped Records. Covering genres from Deep House to Melodic House, Mitch crafts unexpected musical journeys.

A vibrant presence in global hotspots like Amsterdam, Ibiza, and Miami, his sets at Igloofest, Burning Man, and SXM Festival have cemented his reputation. Each performance reaffirms his status as a genre-defying leader, captivating fans worldwide and ensuring the dancefloor remains a place of magic and wonder.

He-Menace’s journey into DJing began at 17, when he was snuck into a Deep Therapy event—a night that left a lasting impression. More than just a party, Deep Therapy was one of Ottawa’s most respected underground gatherings: the kind of experience where music, production, and atmosphere all align. That night opened his ears to the deeper, groovier, and more soulful side of electronic music—and quietly sparked an obsession to understand it, then share it.

After years of digging and refining his ear, he stepped into the booth at 22 during Beyond City Beats, the open decks and networking night at City At Night. It was there that he found community, built confidence on pro gear, and began shaping his voice as a DJ.

His first real break came not at home, but abroad—landing a month-long residency at Raindance, a party hostel on Ometepe Island, Nicaragua. Playing Wet Wednesdays and most nights of the week, he learned to read a room, adapt, and build energy from scratch. That experience shaped the way he approaches every set: with patience, intention, and a desire to connect.

Since returning to Ottawa, He-Menace has played steadily across the city, including a standout opening set for Mustafa Ismaeel at Undercurrent, and slots alongside Mitch Oliver and Tyler Mesa—key voices in Canada’s underground scene.

Behind the decks, He-Menace isn’t just a name. It’s a reflection of who he is—a play on his last name, Jimenez, often mispronounced by Anglophones. “He-Menace” is how it’s meant to sound: rooted in identity, heritage, and self-expression.

His sets reflect that same honesty. Deeply tuned into the ever-evolving sounds of the underground, He-Menace blends raw, soulful, genre-blurring selections—always searching for the records you didn’t know you needed to hear. For him, DJing is about curation, storytelling, and staying connected to the pulse of the culture.
