A fresh new year has arrived at our doorstep and it’s awaiting for us to welcome it in with warm open arms. If you happen to fall into the group of those who like to lose their shit on new years eve (its a pretty big group), we’ll then this guide might come in handy. Some of you might have already booked your NYE plans months in advance, but for those late bloomers out there i’ve compiled a tiny guide of all the worthy shenanigans being thrown down on December 31, 2011. For those of you who truly trust my opinion (dont trust nobody!), i’ve also knit picked my personal Top 3 must-attend events.

This one’s a no-brainer – for me anyways. After losing my Pleasurekraft virginity at Electric Daisy Carnival this summer, PK solidified my love for tech house right down to the atomic level. Their jams are quirky, putting a big ol’ grin on your face every single time. What’s not to love. Furthermore, billed for the event we also have Salacious Sounds very own DJ Cal who consistently weaves together a…salacious set (wink). Love that kid.

For those of you who yearn the harder side of life The Sound Academy Solarium is where you need to be plopped at. The talent on the bill is mint, the cost is reasonable and the venue is jaw dropping. Let Mord Fustang, Adventure Club, Charlie Darker & Conway hold your hand while you cross into a new year with them. Bring an extra pair of clean underwear (just my recommendation)…
 
LMFAO – Sexy & I Know It (Mord Fustang Remix) by 1ReySon

Who here can say they’ve ever had a bad time at Kool Haus? … [cricket sounds] … Nadda. Why? Simply because only the cream de le creme get booked for the Haus. On one hand here, we have semi-bad-ass AOKster whose stage dives and champagne showers warrant a show alone. On the other hand, we have a legend of the industry who shakes the ground beneath you while simultaneously shaking off the undergarments of your lady friend with his boyish good looks. Take it or leave it, you know what your missing if you choose not to attend.

    Good list.. Great to see TG added to that bill w/ Aoki.

    One thing though – I would never recommend anyone go to am event at Airship. I did an event there two months ago, and the venue owner (“for fear of noise complaints”) turned the music down at 1115 to a point so low that my small 350w monitor I’d brought with me was overpowering the speakers. The owner has either completely misjudged what a reasonable level to have the speakers at was, or he genuinely did not give a shit that the last two hours of his client’s party was more or less ruined. Either way you slice it, the guy was a drunk asshole.

    DO NOT GO TO AIRSHIP! Fred Falke is awesome, but your night WILL end in disappointment.

    Ouch, thats not reassuring. Lets hope the club owner doesnt act like a goof. I doubt he will, its new years…the only night out of the year where you can make noize. The cops wont give a rats-ass about any noize complaints lol. Have no fear folks, i know Simon Jain will have the whole place under control :D

    THANK YOU! I spent like last two hours searching for an NYE event in Toronto that wasn’t completely sold out yet and it seems I could still get into one of these. I guess there will be a couple of free events where anyone will be able to go, but as the one at the Nathan Philips Square seems to be the most exciting, I am desperate to find something more fun. A piece of advice from me – never start planning your NYE two days before the day!
