It’s that time of year again when Ninja sets down for a yearly visit to Piknic Electronik. Represented this year by Toddla T, Stenski, Shuttle, and the Beard called Ghost. Parc Jean Drapeau… under the statue… come out of the metro and follow the beats.
Two appearances this week…
Tonight (Aug 31st)… myself & Poirier drop onto the St. Ambroise terrace for our Sud-West monthly :
Where : St. Ambroise Terrace (5080 St. Ambroise)
When : Tuesday, Aug 31st
Price : So Free It’s Free
Time : 8:00 PM – midnight
This Saturday (Sept 4th)… Ghostbeard, Steinski, Shuttle, and Toddla T all lineup for the yearly Ninja Tune edition of Piknic Electronik at Parc Jean Drapeau. $10… from 2PM – 10:00 PM.
Sorry all but Sud-West tonight is cancelled. Still a risk of rain and damp-cold evening on forecast. It’s a tough call as could be an okay night still, but with no permanent PA at St. Ambroise terrace we need to confirm/cancel PA rental mid-afternoon and run risk of paying for PA we don’t end up using.
Ghostbeard going down a long dark tunnel…Currently dusting off some jungle classics for this old-school throw-down… and remember kids… when I say old-school… I was actually there and everything! Come listen to Grandpa Ghostbeard tell you about the early 90’s… sonically that is.
Summertime… and the living is easy…
Here’s your tune of the summer… woman of the moment Natalie Storm comes in dub-plate style on Poirier’s “90’s Backyard (Wildlife mix) for the big man Ghostbeard. Original taken from new Poirier album “Running High”… cop it if you haven’t done so already.
And make sure to check Natalie’s latest jam with Sticky “Look Pon Me” (in fact you can hear it in my last mix… scroll down kids… scroll down)

We’re back… your favorite franco-anglo selectors, Poirier & Ghostbeard, return to take over the St. Ambroise patio each Tuesday through the summer. Beats, beer, and BBQ… for the low low price of FREE!
Ancient sun gods got nothing on me… I’ve been to Egypt and my sound is still the champion sound.
New mix… starting off with some versions on the very excellent Prisonbreak Rhythm, couple jams from the new South Rakka’s joint, and leaning heavily on Poirier’s forthcoming Running High album for material because it’s just not easy to choose one tune (and hey… if I’ve got to do the paperwork for it… I’m going to cramp his style). If you were at the big big Karnival V.2 last weekend you’d have heard most of this go down…

Poirier, Ghostbeard, Bonjay, and Valeo on the decks and mics… BIG!
Guaranteed to provide the hangover you need to watch Canada win hockey gold on Sunday (please god don’t make me have to edit this post in 5 hours…).
