Fall 2011 wrapup.

bodegaempire — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 01:00:12 +0000

It’s been a busy last few months. Two sets at Korova (Paradisio), two at Blizzarts (Swing&Skip, Project), one with Henry HGLDT at Inspecteur Épingle (Syndroma) as Local Tyrants. Plus a handful of random one-offs and private gigs.

Party Guy Records released a Hissy Fit-HGLDT collaboration called Last Summer Dub in November. Available where good mp3s are sold.

Martin Kemp remix:

You can also grab yourself a free EP of acid-tinged housy stuff. XLR8R describe it better than I could.

I recently did a couple of mixes for J’aime le Dubstep, which is pretty big here in Montreal. The live set mix isn’t miles away from what I played at my MUTEK set this summer:

Finally, Exclaim! magazine had some nice words to say in their year-end wrapup, putting Hissy Fit alongside Jacques Greene, Ango and Lunice as one of four Montreal artists to watch.

Coming up: more collaborations! These ones with Dig-it-all’s Vipond and Living Stone plus at least one more with HGLDT.

Hissy Fit featured in XLR8R’s Bubblin’.
