Grass roots development of Underground Music can’t begin anywhere but in your own backyard. “The other London” (Ontario) has been home since 2000 when it was obvious the city has a small scene compared to Toronto, but in amongst the student traps that play crappy club music there is a thriving underground music culture, both instrumental and electronic. My aim is to connect and help provide a platform for emerging, or already established DJs and producers a chance to play more regularly for peers and other fans.  

There are some amazing sets from young and from “more experienced” artists in South Western Ontario. Not yet considered stalwarts, there are killer sets from household names and ones that will be for years to come. Enjoy 

Personally, I have been grooving and toe-tappin to 🏠 music since 1997 when the Toronto underground scene was hopping, in clubs, plus the rave scene was sick. Talents like Mark Oliver, Jeff Mills, Joey Beltram, Kenny Glasgow were the local backbone of a thriving scene that drew in some of the world’s best. 

Mark Farina, Carl Cox, Sneak, Derrick Carter, Honey Dijon and many more House-Moguls spoiled my ears and soul and left me wonting more...

I eagerly purchased a used, DJM-500 and a couple Technic 1200’s and my vinyl collection took root. 

Recently dusted off my records so my daughter could start spinning. Soon after I entered the digital world and have enjoyed jumping into massive pool of tracks/talent from around the globe. 

Hoping to share some of the tracks/sets that connect with me. Enjoy ...

The Italian producer first started making beats on his Playstation at the age of 12, and year after year his polished productions have caught the ear of tastemakers across the globe.

His labels MOOD FUNK RECORDS & MONOSIDE have been a consistent source of some of the best house music in the scene, with releases from the likes of David Penn, DJ Mes, Kevin McKay, Sebb Junior, Art Of Tones, Robbie Rivera, Moon Rocket, Peter Brown, Hatiras, Johnick, to name but a few.

It's his own personal output that remains so impressive over the year, with a steady stream of hits being fired out not only though his own label, but some of the biggest imprints in the industry.

The most recents top ones tracks like 'Smile Like That' on Mood Funk Records, 'Disko Dancing' on MONOSIDE, 'The House Shh Remix' on Paharas Musica, 'Ask Yourself (Can You Dance)' on Soulfuric Trax, 'Sax Damage In NYC' on MONOSIDE, 'THE DJ MANIFESTO" on Mood Funk...
Angelo has shared the love across the whole House scene.

He has that innate ability to create tracks where you instantly know who's at the controls from the first beat.

You'd be hard pushed to find a more prolific and hardworking producer in the house music scene at the moment.

He was a Guest DJ in United States, Australia, Croatia, Holland, Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, Indonesia, Germany, Bulgaria, Swiss, Austria, Czech Republic, Italy, Africa, Spain, Malta, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia..

Angelo Ferreri was born in Sicily in 1984.

As a producer, he has been active since 2004 under the nickname of 'Alkaline' and 'Angelo Elettronico', with productions that are always part of his growth as a musician.

In 2010 he immediately started to attract the attention of several others labels with a different kind of music, it was then, that the name of 'Angelo Ferreri' started to be well known all over the world.

Now he has established his exciting Funky-Tech-House style with successful countless releases on Nervous, Soulfuric, Mood Funk Records, Glasgow Underground..

Take a look at this guy...
