This was my first time at Switched on Synths at House of Targ. I was there to see Odonis Odonis and you can say it was sort of an LP release show for their 2017 album No Pop. Intense set which was filled with experimental post-punk electro-rock dance music! Also the fog machine filled up …
Geoffroy stopped by in Ottawa for a show at the 27 Club on March 23, 2018. It is a year now since the release of Coastline which is filled with downtempo electro-pop music. Nice time grooving to Geoffroy’s music and surprised he got away with smoking “something” on stage. Opening up the show was Ottawa’s …
From one show to another. This was one show I didn’t want to miss out. Ottawa’s Ginny held their EP release show at The Concorde Motel which is in the area of Vanier. Sadly I missed Ommie Jane but made it for the last few songs by The Railway Hotel. Ginny ended off with a …

It has been a long time since I went to a show/event at Makerspace North. First of a musicXmaker series by Spectrasonic.
