“Distributor of deep, infectious dance grooves and a feel-good atmosphere.”
That’s how Sam describes himself as a DJ. Never afraid to go too deep, his emotive musical selections are his own therapy.  Having grown up on his parents' beautiful combination of funk and Disco music (James Brown, Donna Summer), Rock'n'roll (Led Zeppelin, Ramones), Flamenco (Gipsy Kings, Camarón de la Isla) … All of which became infused with his own love for house and techno music, Chef ended up with quite a mixed spectrum of musical influence. Today, this translates into sets where he picks apart and infuses together all the pieces of the music that he loves best.
An active member of his musical community, he loves playing in nightclubs, festivals, patios, pop-ups and special events. His love for music goes beyond the spectrum of mixing tunes. He has found plenty of ways to express himself musically. He also likes to organize private and public events in parks, beaches and islands, just to name a few. He has dedicated himself to helping others become better DJs through his passion for music while giving tips to others and sharing their music along the way.
“For me, it’s all about mood and a deep, hypnotic groove… playing those tracks that get you feeling some type of way. Throwing those beats that leave you nodding your head without you realizing it, regardless of genre, tempo or style. “

A raver and dancer since the early 90's, Thunder Bitch was always an acolyte of the underground and it's delicious sounds. When the pandemic hit and the music stopped they formed the Pandemica Kollective with life partner Zena to give people an outlet for mental health hosting safe physically distanced outdoor events.
In December of 2020 Thunder Bitch crossed over from the dancefloor to behind the decks creating a unique style playing techno, house, disco and progressive with hypnotic thunderous rolling basslines that inspire dancing.
Quickly finding success Thunder Bitch found a residency with The Kollective, Sashay and is a regular guest DJ with the Techno Cats and regularly can be found in the underground of Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto with an upcoming appearance at Canada's largest festival, Pride Toronto.

This week we have the pleasure of welcoming Paris-based artist Aymar aka The Real Carter to the show.
The electronic scene in France has long been one of Europe’s most dynamic. From its beginnings in the 1970’s with pioneers like Jean-Michel Jarre, that country has spawned some of the biggest names including Daft Punk, Laurent Garnier and more recently Betical, Raphael Cerato and Teho. France also has its share of great festivals and events, such as the Cercle Music Festival that just took place last weekend.
The Real Carter evolves between Ethno and Progressive House. He started his electronic music journey just before Covid and has now signed on multiple labels such as Hungarian entity Dynamica Label.
Part of the Orchessons music crew in Paris, he constantly tries to improve his perception of electronic music. He also believes that building a unique and personal style is mandatory nowadays. Thus, he spends most of his time crafting atmosphere in his studio and as this activity requires time and commitment, he rarely posts sets online.
This episode for Ottawa Prog Vibes is special for him as he includes one of his unreleased pieces produced with his duo LK as Astral Frames.
