Red58 on Consell de Cent always seems to come into its own during Sonar Week, and this year is no exception, with French electro legend The Hacker playing this Wednesday (June 12th) and the promoters Off The Record involved in three events at the venue over the weekend. This collaboration with Hypnotic Mindscapes and Kimchi Records is without doubt the most interesting of the three, with New York's much-loved Evan Baggs, pictured, headlining, plus strong support from Toronto's Cosmic JD and two Ecuadorean talents in Chicaiza and Patamamba.
Baggs is something of a DJs' DJ: hugely respected among his peers for an uncommonly sharp ability to read the room and an enviable record bag full of headsy, spacey techno and house treats. Cosmic JD, meanwhile, is cut from the same cloth musically and has done much to elevate the sleeping giant that is Toronto club culture with his deep and trippy DJ sets and similarly minded productions.
