Home for the Holidays
Homesick, Donna dada, Captivate, Radiate Crew & malina
Friday, December 22, 2023
Venue: The Blox
Production: Fabian Liebrand
Sound: Polite Sound
Thank you for all the support for the Radiate project this year—we love our community! To finish out the year (and our second season) in style, we have a little gift just for you. On Friday December 22, Radiate is bringing together a gathering of formerly local DJs to the Blox Arts Centre. We’re calling it “Home for the Holidays”, and we hope to rise to the top of your party priorities this season.
There’s the multidisciplinary mischief-maker Homesick, who will be back to visit us, having taken his talents to Montréal; the incomparable pillar of the Calgary scene, Donna Dada, who left for her studies to Ontario until her career brought her to Vancouver; and mountain boy gone coastal, Captivate, whose standout 2023 Bass Coast set showcased what an all-around monster he is as a producer and DJ. Local support from up-and-coming leftfield bass DJ Malina and the Radiate squad rounds out the bill.
Our beloved peer support team will again be roaming the space to look out for all of us, and Polite Sound, Radiate crew and Fabian Liebrand will be pushing new light, design, sound and projection concepts forward.
We want to acknowledge that the land Radiate hosts events on is in Treaty 7 territory and that this area is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. Please check out our website before the event to review our [LINK] Code of Conduct and [LINK] Policies. Tickets are available exclusively from www.radiateyyc.com, and early bird $20 tickets will be available until December 5! Pick one up for everyone on your list.
S2.2 Radiate & 403DNB Present
Origins w/ Sully
Friday, November 17th, 2023
Venue: Secret Location
Production: Fabian Liebrand
Sound: Ionic Sound Systems
Radiate and 403DNB are joining forces on Saturday November 17 to bring you an ambitious, forward-thinking lineup that promises to be equal parts jungle rinse-out and notebook raver's paradise.
Long before the UK garage revival kicked in, Sully began finding a space between 2-step’s swing, dubstep’s edge and breakstep’s drums, all underpinned by the rude spirit of jungle. The stage will be set for him by the inimitable Vancouver duo Vasho and Bronwyn going B2B, while local support from 403DNB’s own Strange Manner as well as Yungkamaji and OpenEnd rounding out the bill.
Event location is a private studio located just outside of downtown, exact location will be revealed to ticket holders only (week of November 13). Please check out our website before the night to review our Code of Conduct and Policies, and stay tuned for more updates to the safer spaces and harm reduction information featured there.
S2.1
The Librarian & Mood Change (All night long)
Saturday September 23, 2023
Venue: The Blox Arts Center
Production: Fabian Liebrand
Sound: Ionic Sound Systems
The time has come to announce the first Radiate show of fall, and we have been bursting with excitement to share this one. Their pairing in life and behind the decks has become a favourite across the region, and their sound together is greater than the sum of its parts. This dynamic journey ranges up and down through tempos and energy levels, through house, bass, techno, 160, jungle and back again. For those who haven’t guessed, on Saturday September 23 it’s finally Calgary’s turn to enjoy The Librarian x Mood Change All Night Long. Radiate fam will be on duty for light, design, and peer support, and we will again be calling on Ionic Sound Systems and Fabian Liebrand to spice things up further.
This time, our party will be in a new wheelchair-accessible space in the heart of the Beltline called The Blox. Please check out our website before the event to review our **Code of Conduct and Policies, and stay tuned for more updates to the safer spaces and harm reduction information featured there.
