Our talent in Toronto is top notch. Serious, I'm gettin really tired of people not respecting the talent we have. The best sets i've heard this year have definitely been from the Canadian boyz. Not to mention the tunes. A bunch of those dubs i want to get my hands on are Toronto produced.

I want to thank all the dj's, promoters, mc's, evereybody who have made Toronto a world-class city to come and hear the best tunes.

easy,

CAF

Haha, I think I said that a long time ago. Tommy's an awesome dj (and producer) though, technically one of the most interesting to listen to by far.

Some of those tracks though... *stabs ear repeatedly with a pencil*

Obviously to each his own, especially with jungle, but I remember that set from body roc, and thought it was harrible. His tunes selection at the beginnig was amazing, but he wasn't mixing at all, he was pretty much just sliding the fader over, and his "new-school" taste was bah-rue-tal. No disrespect to the pussyclot finn, his old shit is priceless, but that particular set..... meh.
Imo of course.
