Holy smokes Electric Pines music was a blast!!! What a great time with the best vibes all weekend! So glad to have met alot of people and put faces to names!
JustDavens played a live set Sunday at 5:30 and the set was top notch! Very well done!
That being said we have finished our summer festival business and will be working on workshops and shows again this fall/winter! Be it gets to cold we'll have the meet up rescheduled soon. After a fun summer we're back with more creativity and ready to get things rocking again. We'll be partnering up with some other groups here in the near future to bring more workshops and shows, Stay tuned!
Cheers,
Chump
Due to the possibility of rain we have cancelled the meet up for today sorry for any inconveniences. Ment to post last night to give everyone a heads up but was light headed after the heat and it slipped my mind. We'll be posting another weekend here soon again sorry for any inconveniences.
Just a reminder that we post more frequently in our community group then threw this page as this page is for events, meet ups and show casing! Feel free to join the group and engage with the community!
Cheers

Biography:
JustDave is a one man band based out of Halifax, Nova Scotia, who creates a unique blend of music combining elements of rock, pop, electronic, funk, blues, house and techno. JustDave is the alias of 43 year old musician Dave Mackenzie, who has been playing and composing music for over 15 years.
Dave has played numerous instruments since he was a child, and as an adult has focused on guitar, piano, singing, and electronic instruments like drum machines, sequences, synthesizers, and loopers. He creates an array of tracks by himself, as if a small orchestra was present in the room. In addition to creating his own original music, Dave is known for his impressive covers of existing songs replicating the sounds of the original artists, while also adding in his own unique flair. Dave Mackenzie as JustDave brings a unique and eclectic sound that can’t be found anywhere else.
Unfortunately we are canceling the meet up for tomorrow at the commons. We are moving the date to July 16th at the same spot, sorry for any inconveniences. We’ll have some stickers to give out come July 16th and if you an artist feel free to send your info to us before hand. We have some exciting news coming up so stay tuned!
Much love,
HELM team
**Weather pending**

Artist Feature! Welcome to HELM Friendly Party Town!
Friendly Party Town is a new music performance artist out of Halifax, NS -- Performing complete, live, improvised techno sets using a portable, custom-designed eurorack modular system and drum machine.
Because Friendly Party sessions are improvised, each set is wholly unique. There’s no planned setlist. No prepared tracks. No memory saved in the eurorack. No DJing. It’s a spontaneous creative performance brought to life in the moment, every time. Sets flow from rhythm to rhythm, built up and torn down using only the music tools at hand. It’s old school spirit meets new school tech. It’s raw. It’s fresh. A little messy. A bit punk. A bit jazz. Always groovy.
Check out Friendly Party Town on Youtube. New sets are posted at least once per week. There will be expanded video content around the project coming too; such as system overviews, module and workflow walkthroughs, and more.
If you’re interested in bookings, or want to reach out for any reason: [email protected] or DM on IG/FB.
