Edmonton Bangers Seem To Have Fallen Off The Earth...
Good people of Edmonton…my readers…our commentators and posters:
I run Edmonton Bangers solo, and I’ve been doing so since July of 2009.
It was important to me to set up Edmonton Bangers (the Tumblr blog/Twitter/RSS feeds network), when I realized that not a single independent site of it’s kind existed in Edmonton.
Sure you can go to PM Events, Club Zone or Cool Vibes…but they’re...

Why Are March and April So Slow For Electronic...
Ultra Fest 2011 Line Up
As a Miami native, I can say that I know first-hand what happens to our music scene every March and April - the World Music Conference (WMC). Basically, every year the entire electronic music industry, from promoters to producers, descend on Miami for the annual WMC. The conference decides who and what is important to our respective scenes. It’s a great place for...

Anonymous asked: Hey, out of curiosity, will this blog go back to being active at some point? Nov. was a great month for Edmonton music, we had Bar9, Boregore, Bassnectar, and in about a week we'll be seeing Datsik and B.Rich playing, and not much longer after that Propa Tingz will be tearing up the spot.

We've Been Away....But We Will Be Back....
I apologize for being away. Honestly, I didn’t think anyone was paying attention, or really cared. I was wrong.
In the past few weeks Edmonton Bangers has been encouraged by messages to continue the blog. So we will be back next week.
I personally have had a really difficult time adjusting to Edmonton in winter. Even though this is my second winter here, it’s been hard for a Miami...

Oct 5: Rusko and Knight Riderz @ Starlite Room
Oh Snap presents Rusko’s OMG Tour @ Starlite Room
Rusko (Mad Decent UK) I like to think of Rusko as the Richard Humpty Vission of dubstep. Not because they sound at all alike, but they are both great stage DJs, playing for the crowd. They really get into the mix…and they mix tracks in quick succession. This is why Rusko sets the dance floor on fire. It’s what makes him famous...
