I’ve been following the Team Canada DJs for quite a while now, as well as a related project called the Eh! Team DJs. The duo formed up about 5 years ago, and have had one release so far called “Classic Material 1”. To be succinct, the 2004 album was ridiculously fucking good, and I don’t know why these guys took so long to follow up with something similar. Classic Material is all mashup, all the time. It has all of the song recognition appeal without the manic switch-ups of Girl Talk. It takes old classics by the likes of Sinatra and Pink Floyd, and throws down a fat bass line a la The Clipse, or nasty Biggie vocals. I’ve included a few songs at the end for you to check out.

Now, more to the point, these guys have finally released a follow up album. It’s called Canadian Club, the release date is October 20, 2009, and the guys are on a major promotional tour right now to hype it up. It has a couple awesome mashups in similar style to Classic Material (Music Sounds Better With You), top notch edits (Rebel Rebel), and a couple of INCREDIBLE remixes of Kardinal Offishall and Drake.

Peep the tracklist:

Now the last thing I have to say about these two is they know how to throw a party. If you live in the east, then unfortunately you’re out of luck for the next little while, as their 30+ date tour has already blown through. But if you live in Toronto or the west then you are in luck. This Toronto will be one of the biggest dates of their tour, because they will be playing at the Barletta EP release party at Wrongbar. If these guys are coming to your town, grab some friends and go see them – you won’t regret it.
