Neil Quigley – Live at Fabricated, Toronto – December 26, 2009

It`s really important to have a local base when trying to push a sound in a city. We know this all too well as we`ve struggled to find a Toronto talent that is in tune with what we’re into and that can help lure more bodies to the dance floor.

But even outside of our own parties, it`s vital we have promoter allies that love the same tunes we do. The more our beats are heard, the greater the thirst will be for what we offer. That`s why we thank God the Fabricated guys are back in the game.

DJs Steve Mack and Matt Coleridge and scene good guy Roberto Ramasar have all been in the club scene for many years. Steve and Matt were part of the Solution crew alongside Luke Fair in the early part of the millennium. Berto, a good ole Brantford boy like me, became a regular face in the crowd around the same time.

After some time in and out of Toronto`s club world, the trio`s returned with a vengeance over the past six months promoting a monthly at Stone Lounge inside the lower level of Revival on College Street West. Aptly named after Steve`s obsession with the UK`s marquee underground venue, Fabricated has featured a who`s who list of the city`s top progressive and tech house talents. However on Boxing Day, they stepped it up a few notches securing an extra special guest appearance from international superstar, the UK`s Neil Quigley.

The bringthebeats crew were spellbound throughout two incredible performances for our EXPOSED weekly a couple years back, and once again we were amazed by this unreal musician at this holiday jam. The crowd was right, the venue was tight and Neil laid down a super smooth set of deep, groovy tech house that had the entire room in a frenzy well beyond the Stone Lounge`s regular hours of operation.

It was one of the events of the year for us and the recorded set is a reminder of how amazing this party really was. Thanks to the guys for adding some much needed life into Toronto`s underground and thanks to Neil for allowing these stellar beats to ride the internet airwaves. See you all again on February 19th for the next installment of Fabricated.
