Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Dreams Festival

Another week, another invasion of artists to the 6ix. This weekend marks another edition of the Dreams Festival, which has changed names (previously Digital Dreams) and weekends (last year July 7th/8th and previously Canada Day long weekend). That said the lineup is always stacked with some of the biggest names in the game and this year is no different. As we do on Bump In The Hump we'll be showcasing some of those names, of course with special focus on those Canadians in the mix. We'll hear tracks from Ryan Shepherd, B.Traits, Robotaki, and more. Get tickets, details and more here.The rest of the two hours of Bump In The Hump gets filled with a hearty helping of house (with a sprinkling of trap, wave and funk) including fantastic stuff from friends of the show BLANSH, Elazion, Marco Marz, and RYME x Cosella. We have tracks from the latest releases of CRi, Harrison, Swim Good Now, Chromeo, Just John x Dom Dias and a new house trio that includes PRZM, called MAP. All this and more live from 7-9 PM EDT on Radio Humber, or cataloged after the fact on Mixcloud here.

Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Extended Weekend Warmup

All this week NXNE is taking over the city with dozens of events, and seemingly more popping up each day. The best part of NXNE is the low cost and freedom to go between events for with merely one wristband (details here). Then again you don't even have to purchase anything for the Yonge-Dundas Square Festival Village events (Friday through Sunday) which include CHVRCHES, Tinashe, Jazz Cartier and more. That said there's still several non-NXNE shows happening and I'll be showcasing them on Bump In The Hump as well. Below you'll find a list of those events you'll hear from and about tonight. Click through for more details, to RSVP and pick up tickets (if necessary).

While it may seem all of this looking ahead to the weekend will take up the whole two hours of Bump In The Hump, there's still plenty of room for brand new music from across the country. The summer of Chromeo continues with another remix of "Must've Been" before Head Over Heels drops Friday. Pusher makes his triumphant return with "Sober." We get funky with tracks from Sparkee and Zanski's EPs, and get a first play of Hanz Ford's forthcoming track "Abyss." All this and more live from 7-9 PM EDT on Radio Humber, and cataloged after the fact via Mixcloud here.
