Angus Gruzman has been an undeniable presence on the local circuit since the mid 00s, to the point that I’m frequently told stories of how this slightly batshit crazy DJ changed someone’s life. As Dreems, it seems like his hedonistic past has settled slightly, now more interested in mapping sleep patterns, endless psychedelic mantras and twisted world beat in the studio, while running the Multi Culti label with Montreal pal Thomas Von Party. Having already released the likes of Auntie Flo, Red Axes and Adelaide unknown Xanga, the label is on the cusp of dropping a massive box set that also includes Manfredas, Moscoman, Zsou, Zongamin, Kris Baha, Crowdpleaser, Nicola Cruz and more. Taped at Dreem’s dungeon just before his Berlin sabbatical, this show catches a few choice discs before they were boxed into storage. Prince passed the morning after, explaining the notable absence of a purple tribute.
