Happy Endings ft. Brenmar | July 9, 2011




Social Talk hit up Happy Endings a week ago Saturday and let me just tell you, shit got crazy! With Voltron throwing down a dirty set before Brenmar, the crowd was amped and out of control! It was clear that everyone was enjoying the craziness that is Happy Endings; I mean, come on, drinks were $3 before  12am! Not to mention it was one of the Mansion boys birthday's, Matt! With that in mind, I knew this night would be one to remember. Brenmar threw down an unreal set that left the crowd yearning for more! 
Be sure to check back for updates on when the Happy Endings will be!

NEROwww.myspace.com/nerouk
After huge success in 2008 and 2009, it was set to follow 2010 would be a ground braking year for NERO. Signed to Chase and Status label, their first single from their forthcoming album "Innocence" was released on MTA records in April. The guys picked up numerous awards and nominations; winning Beatport awards for Best Dubstep Act and Best Dubstep Track for "Act Like You Know" and nominated for BBC's Sound of 2011, XFMs Sound of 2011 and Music Week’s Top 15. The recent success of their single ‘Me and You’ demonstrates what an exciting year 2011 is going to be for NERO. The single was added to BBC Radio 1’s A List in December 2010 and released January 2011, where it debuted at number 15 on the singles chart, also managing to reach the number 1 spot on the independent-releases chart. It’s no surprise after such massive success Dan and Joe have been in high demand to perform all over the world. 2011 will see the release of their debut album ‘Welcome Reality’ on May 15th, and it will be followed by appearances at festivals worldwide throughout the summer.

Introducing: Shane Martz (Toronto)

He litterally just stepped out onto the scene in the last month and already he is making MASSIVE headway with his brilliant DUBSTEP remix to AWOLNATION'S, Sail. I heard this song for the first time only 4 hours ago and I'v had it on repeat ever since. Allow me to introduce you to Shane Martz, dubstep DJ and enthusiast. For starters, check out the song below (free download):
He's currently living in Whistler, BC, however, is from Toronto, ON. He admits "probably one of the main influences to start making this music is the lifestyle here". I had a chance to ask Shane a few questions and asked him what his current favourite dubstep song is, and he said Midnight by Benga.  Shane has cited Zeds Dead, The Killabits, Skrillex, Nero, Mord Fustang and Pretty Lights as some of his main influences. 


Also, I really like his remix to  Seth Sentry, Train Catcher (Shane Martz Dubstep Remix) below (free downlaod). 



Check him out, I'm sure you will enjoy his sound. 

Big things to come!
