Shit yeah!!!! We’re 9 years young friends!! This is probably the hardest blog to write….cause really, where do we start. Given the fact that so much has happened since our inception, we thought it most fitting to focus on the NOW, and reflect another time. One thing is for sure friends, our official celebration is with our favourite partners in crime, Fabricated, and of course a few hundred of our closest mates –> ahem – that’s YOU!

As you know, there’s also something really weird and funky about turning 9 years old. You’re well past the 5-year mark, but not quite 10, which is typically a huge year to celebrate right? Somehow, our feelings align well with this experimental track by the legendary Beatles….

YOWZA!!!! Okay…..back to reality here –> Tim Green hasn’t been to Toronto for a couple of years, so we thought it would be a great opportunity to hear him again, but this is special guys. We’re going to have Tim play his heart out in the intimate setting of Stone Lounge (underneath Revival Bar). A milestone really worth noting, here at houseaddict. And so you obviously know we couldn’t have done this without Fabricated, the countless friends we’ve made over the years, and right now, YOU : )
Tim has really crafted his sound over the past few years, and we think that it’s really unique. We’ll give you a hit of something LIVE’ly right here, but also something on the softer side a little later in the blog….
TIM GREEN LIVE @ Mystery Land

His latest productions have been really outstanding as well, as his modern take on house music has landed him on Get Physical, Cocoon, and most recently Flumo Recordings!
Tim’s latest EP “3 Days Ago” on Flumo

Finally, as a true sign of an artist’s creativity, Tim has created a series called “Small Hours of the Morning Mixes”. We at houseaddict really love these, as they are almost a presentation of Tim’s deeper side of life. Here’s part 4, our favourite!

Warm-up duties for this event call upon local Toronto talent that fit Tim’s sound like a glove!!

For obvious reasons, we really encourage all of you to get on our reduced guestlist for this event (guestlist@houseaddict.com). BUT, for our real die-hards, we offer you one single opportunity for FREE ENTRANCE (that’s right – just YOU). The contest is simple, we ran a series this past summer called SUMMER MIXTAPE SESSIONS, and we were fortunate to record several of the performances. Mike Gleeson’s set is our featured September podcast, and Hemingway’s is October’s. Oddly enough, somewhere buried in these mixes, they share a single track. Name that track and the producer(s) in an email to guestlist@houseaddict.com. The first to respond will claim this FREE ENTRANCE.
See everyone on the 19th, and happy birthday to US ; )
