 Coolness: 31215 | A friend and I have to make an oral presentation about a contemporary theme in Québec. We decided to talk about Québec's underground rave scene. Non-commercial mixing. Québec's avant-garde DJs vs Québec's commercial DJs. I'm searching right now articles and stuff about the history of mixing in the bilingual province, the creative artists, the different types of music and mixing mediums (I got plenty of info about that last one but you can send me anything anyway), and anything I forgot to mention. Any info/links/etc. would be super awesome!
Of course I'll name a few artists on [ rave.ca ] and make the teacher and students learn about the best canadian rave scene! :P I'm still very new to the rave scene, so I absolutely want to learn more about it and not make a fool of myself saying wrong stuff about DJing in front of the class. |

 Coolness: 56045 | In my opinion, you must look up for :
- Tiga (the whole story : Turbo, Afterhours, record shop (am I wrong?)) - 1993 raves in Quebec city (dunno for Montreal though, I know that there's some old-schoolers on this website that might help you) [ www.rave.ca ] - Preach (Guy from Levis that is now known internationally) - Akufen and the micro-house scene - Pheek and his label - Acid AND Techno I remember doing some little researchs on the subject last year, maybe I can find something for you. [ www.olats.org ] Look for "Les nomades urbains" That's some master thesis on the subject. |

| Coolness: 31215 | Nice! Thanks to both of you! I'll start gathering that stuff together and continue to search for more :D
I'm worried though my friend doesn't find much stuff. I've checked rapidly the net and it seems there's almost nothing, eheheh too underground! Or simply I'm bad at searching... Or both! I've found some interesting articles but a lot of them can be read completely only if you pay... bummer. Information should be free! |

Oddly it seem shocking for anglophones to have that reaction because they use the almighty lingua franca but I wouldn't expect any better if I didn't speak German in Germany or Japanese in Japan, it's just basic respect. Of course Quebec language protection is driven by who's in power, when nationalists are in power they have sufficient resources to have the law applied but when those only caring about money are in power, it's most likely the first department to have cuts. With status quo, Quebec is doomed to become like New Brunswick in term of language: having local language popularity contests. The same way Canada is "bilingual", I wonder if my family members barely speaking English would have appropriate living conditions in Alberta: Would they have their diagnosis properly explained to them? Emergency reception able to handle a serious case without useless delay? It's normal they'd have trouble speaking anything else than English in a English unilingual province but that bilingual country thing... It wouldn't be a problem in a real bilingual province but that's just a myth. National identity and respect is all fine when the economy is well oiled but as soon as it slow down, it's just a luxury. |

You want to segregate people based on something as stupid as the language they speak, I suggest you make yourself a time machine and go back the Germany 1934; I think you'll find a lot of people as narrow-minded as you fucking idiots are. |

J'utilise l'anglais pour me faire comprendre par tout le monde mais ma langue maternelle est le français et mes parents ne connaissent que dalle en anglais. Je ne me considère pas encore tout à fait bilingue en fait, j'ai encore de la misère à parler anglais. Y'a un monsieur qui prend le bus le matin dans mon trou de campagne franco-québécois et il parle anglais. Je sais pas comment il fait d'ailleurs... |

You want to say that we speak 'Quebecois' here rather than french, fine, we don't give a fuck, because you don't speak our language and you don't want to. Let us define what we are, stay out of it cause we don't care what you think. aller, baise ta mere salle connard (is that french enough for you, dick smoker) |

| Coolness: 185380 | there's tons of journal, article, opinions, conversation about raves, how people see them live them here in quebec
just here on [ rave.ca ] i wrote Rave in the search thread box and found this that could interest you, a conversation started on a article about rave [ www.rave.ca ] there's [ rave.ca ] for the montreal community, and i know there's another one more for quebec city, maybe search in both, compare them, learn their stories, check out what does people have found on the subject (yes, there is at least one thread a year about the rave story, maybe theur research could advance yours) |
