![[Interview] Chris Lake (TMN EXCLUSIVE)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4267353_lg.jpg)
Energetic. Heart Pumping. Dance inducing . Those are just a few terms you could use to describe Chris Lake 's live performances. A true master of his crowds, Chris Lake knows how to throw down an incredibly entertaining set. His house-based style ranges all over the spectrum, keeping the crowd intrigued, and engaged throughout the experience. Brutally Honest. Quick Witted. Off-the-cuff. Those are just a few terms you could use about Chris Lake as a person. We were lucky enough to have a chance to sit down with Chris at Beta Nightclub, and get [...]

Last month Toronto production team Provoke launched a series called Loud All Night, with its first installment starring a collection of talented, young, local producers supporting AutoErotique , Chris Lake , & Michael Woods . First in the supporting cast was Northend, one of Provoke's cast of hot up-and-comers, who opened up the main stage. I was especially stoked on his performance because he had several new original tracks to drop that night, and they sounded incredible on that big system. Also supporting were Dzeko & Torres, Jed Harper, Gabe Galluci, Damn Kids, [...]

Excuse the first person anecdote, but I remember sending frantic text messages when I heard this dropped live at Pacha NYC a few months back . '$5 for track ID.' True story. This is huge and, somehow, floating under-the-radar. The collaboration of techy Chris Lake and electro Lazy Rich is somewhat peculiar but this works on so many levels. The catchy vocals from Jareth are just baiting DJs to pick this one up for their sets. Still, no release date yet. We will continue to follow its progress.

We develop technologies that improve and enhance any color, from subtle specialty effects, to glow-in-the-dark pigments, to our classic range of fluorescents."

Throughout the festival's three-day excursion, which sets down on Bayfront Park in Miami each March, thousands upon thousands of festivalgoers [...]
