Bleak World [Dec 2024 Mix]

(from Métissage Facebook page)

DEC 21 2024
Métissage
CISM 89.3FM
5-6pm

Hosts: Zo Rakotomalala & Mario Galego

This week on Métissage, we have the pleasure in sharing our airwaves with one of Montreal’s local Pioneers, a true passionate of vinyl; Host of his weekly DéCaDANSE RadioShow, DJ Michael Terzian will be dropping a mixset for CISM 89.3FM.

For 28 yrs, Montreal's Michael Terzian of the mighty Nu Bang Clan has stapled a signature, cutting-edge House sound like no other; gracing turntables in Chicago, NYC, Detroit, Miami, LA, San Diego, Toronto, Thailand+Turks & Caicos, not to mention a multitude of Montreal staples such as DiSalvio, Jai Bar, Stereo Bar, Salon Daomé, Globe, UN, Peopl, Jello Bar, Luba Lounge as well as repeat appearances for festivals like Piknic Electronik & AIM. 
Since Aug 2022, he's been holding down a monthly Saturday residency at Sans Soleil, one of Mtl's most talked about hidden jewels, which boasts a simple 2 turntable set-up on a top-tier Klipsch system. He's graced turntables alongside House Music staples such as Farley Jackmaster Funk, Victor Simonelli, Tony Touch, Jovonn, Rick Wilhite, Alton Miller, Ian Friday, DJ Pope, Tyrone Francis, Jephte Guillaume, Basic Soul Unit, Herb Martin, Freddy Sanon & Ben Johnson of Shelter NYC, amongst others.

Renowned for his eclectic musical journeys, he was nominated 3x on NYC's annual listing of "Robbi's Top 20 DJs" in 2003, 2004 & 2007 (Robbi being the infamous 5x award winning House Music promoter of the year; of Shelter NYC fame); listed alongside legendary DJ icons such as Timmy Regisford, Danny Krivit, Tony Humphries, David Morales, Karizma, Francois Kevorkian, Kerri Chandler, Kenny Dope, and Grammy-Award winning Louie Vega, amongst others.

From 1998 to 2008, Michael was a member of Montreal's revered 'Utopia's Paradise' weekly Saturday night radio show on CKUT 90.3FM. From 2010 to 2013, Terzian's self-produced weekly 3-hr Friday night radio show, Salvation From Sin, on Montreal's CJLO1690, received accolades from industry pundits from all over the world, not only for its tasteful selection of pure, unadulterated underground House Music, but equally due to the many local & international guests that contributed to the show over its almost 4-year run. Integral & pioneering Dance Music pillars such as Joe Claussell, Juan Atkins, Larry Heard (aka Mr Fingers), Ron Trent, Byron Stingily, DJ Spen, Chris Brann (aka Ananda Project) & Eddie Perez (Smack Music), amongst many others, dedicated their precious time to this unprecedented show.

In 2015, Terzian joined forces with longtime friend & DJ, The RawSoul, to form the Gold Diggerz, a knockout DJ-duo who held court at several key events & festivals in Montreal, such as Piknic Electronik, Lofthanza, AIM & Jardins Gamelin.

For a 5 year period starting in 2015 and ending abruptly due to the pandemic, Michael held down a weekly residency at The Angry Lobster Bar inside the world renowned La Queue de Cheval in downtown Montreal. Catering to a high society clientele, Michael has played his mouth-watering cocktail of refined House sounds for a bevy of celebrities in the public eye, such as Katie Holmes, The Weeknd, PK Subban, Adam Sandler, Bernie Ecclestone, Lou Ferigno, and an intimate evening where he played for the legendary musician, Carlos Santana and his crew.

In July 2018, Michael began a weekly FM radio venture on CIBL 101.5 FM in the heart of Montreal, to produce a Friday night House Music mixshow, DéCaDANSE. He has had several guests roll through the studio, notably Louie Vega (of Masters At Work). The show currently runs from midnight to 3am.

Whether he plays in a nightclub or on radio, expect this refined musical selector to deliver his sacred mantra of sweet bliss by making dancers not only climb walls, but equally ascend to their innermost spiritual heights.

Michael Terzian guest DJ set for Métissage Radio Show 2024-12-21 [CISM 89.3FM Montreal]

"Plastic Eden" is a hauntingly poignant exploration of the high cost of progress and the illusion of perfection. This song delves into the often overlooked sacrifices made by laborers whose work and lives were the foundation of the systems that shape our modern conveniences—be it the railroads, factories, or sprawling urban landscapes. These workers, deemed insignificant and replaceable by society, are the unsung architects of the world we take for granted today.

When crafting this song, we aimed to entice listeners to look beyond the glossy surface of their lives. The polished exterior of "Plastic Eden" serves as a metaphor for the false perfection modernity promises—an artificial utopia built on the backs of countless individuals whose contributions are buried and forgotten. The song seeks to unearth these buried stories, asking listeners to consider how drastically different their lives would be without the labor and sacrifice of these underappreciated workers.

Foundations built on unhonored blood and sacrifice, no matter how perfect they may appear on the surface, twist and distort the structures they support in ways we can’t fully comprehend. This tension creates a culture of violence that permeates everything, from the systems we rely on to the way we view each other. The glossy world we inhabit—this "Plastic Eden"—is not just a creation of convenience, but a fragile illusion built on exploitation and silence.

We hope "Plastic Eden" leaves you reflecting on the often-dismissed human cost of progress and the societal tendency to prioritize perfection over humanity. May it inspire you to honor those whose lives and labors have shaped the world, even as they’ve been swept away from memory. Beneath the veneer of perfection lies a stark truth: paradise isn’t paradise without justice and acknowledgment of the forgotten.

This is more than a song—it’s a call to peel back the layers, to think, and to see the world anew. And above all, it reminds us of the importance of valuing every member of society equally—whether for their unique skills or their labor. Every contribution is essential, and no one should ever be regarded as less significant or dispensable.

Plastic Eden

Sinister

Just two guys who love extreme music 🖤

Soul Chemical started off raving at a young age in Philadelphia, and quickly fell in love with Drum & Bass music. It didn't take long for him to become a DJ and event promoter in the Northeast. In 2017 he decided to take a hiatus to explore different career routes and pursue school. Now, in 2024, he's back with a fresh take on DnB music, producing everything from peaceful Liquid tunes to heavy Jungle and Neuro tracks. His sound is unconventional, as some would describe it to be more on the experimental side. He draws inspiration from all types of music such as techno, trance, hardstyle, metal, and even video game soundtracks. Lookout for what this artist has to offer, as it will probably be nothing that you expected.

Architects of Eden fuses pulsating beats with provocative lyrics to create a unique blend of cyber-dystopian dance/rap. Our music unveils the dark truths of a world where technology is wielded as a tool of division, surveillance, and control, all while the planet faces devastation at the hands of those in power. Through hard-hitting tracks, we expose the manipulation that keeps humanity complacent, challenging listeners to see beyond the illusions of the digital age.

Far more than just entertainment, our songs are a wake-up call—an urgent demand to unplug from the matrix of consumerism and control. Architects of Eden inspires listeners to take back their agency, resist oppression, and use the same systems designed to suppress them as tools for liberation. With every track, we invite you to question, to resist, and to build a better future on the ruins of a broken world.
