Ottawa Synths & House of TARG are proud to curate the second edition of SWITCHED ON SYNTHS... this time with a pop twist!

VIOLENCE (Ott/Mtl Synth Pop)
Violence is an international touring duo who harness haunting vocals and sweet synthetic sounds to oscillate between the boundless reaches of sublime experimentalism and the commensurable beauty of pop... chaos & geometry for the ears. This rare Ottawa performance promises to both inspire & entertain.  

ANDREW NEWTON (Modular Synth Techno)
Ezekiel Hagar and Kevin Will tag team an array of hardware samplers, drum machines and modular synths to bring you live improvised techno.

CANADA HIGH (80s Influenced Disco Tinged House)
Canada High is a 80’s inspired House project by the highly prolific Paul Anthony. Working under the alias TRAVINO, Paul remixed several prominent artists such as Si Begg, Unique 3, and Rhythmatic, all released on UK based record label Mutate between 2010 and 2012.
Over the years, many of Paul's tracks have been featured in independent films, documentaries, MTV / NBC / CBC and BBC 4 television, modern dance scores, and gallery installations. Currently working with UK publisher Funklabs, Paul has several releases cued for the end of 2015 and beyond under his Canada High (House), Night On Wish Mountain (Electronic) and Wilhaeven (Beats) monikers on UK labels Soundtracs Recordings, No Noise, Mutate Records, and Originator Sound.
