Chris Fennec - Chris Mauri Chris Fennec Since starting his career, Chris Fennec was a great admirer of Above and Beyond, Daft Punk, Armin van Buuren and Markus Schulz. One way or another, the Belgian producer encompasses his influences obtaining as a result uplifting tones. Not for nothing, he has been active in the electronic music realm for over 28 years. In fact, working on ghost producing projects for some big names in the industry served him to enrich his knowledge. You can tell Chris is a perfectionist with a trademark sound that maintains momentum with blazing synths, highly melodic beats, and emotive lyrics.According to the artist himself, his creative melodies always come out of the blue or in the middle of the night. If the final output brings goosebumps then he knows he has just made a catchy jam that ignites a fire in listeners. Stay tuned ! Dreams Come True Chaz Cable A storytelling podcast where I transcribe dreams submitted to [email protected] into short, slice of life stories about you. Aren't you special?Each dream/story has turned out to be a lot like if the kid who dreamt up Sharkboy and Lavagirl was a 20 something millennial that gave up on superheroes. So if that's your vibe, check it out! Right now, we don't yet have any George Lopez, but I'm working on it. Sweet dreams, I appreciate you. On The Road with Mac and Molly - Pet Life Radio Original Pet Life Radio Thirty years ago -- in the second year of our marriage -- my husband Gene and I (with our toddler Brooke in tow) took -- what turned out to be -- a glorious two month motor trip across Canada and Alaska -- starting in Quebec and winding up in British Columbia. I still smile as I think of Gene shaving in our motor home’s rear view mirror on a cool morning by a pristine lake in Yukon Territory. I still cherish the extraordinary kindness of a farmer in Saskatchewan who rescued us from a ditch when our vehicle slid down an embankment. I still fill up with awe as I recall the staggering beauty of the Canadian Rockies. I still feel the excitement of the chuck wagon races at the Calgary Stampede, still ooh at the kick of the kitsch in Dawson’s Creek, still savor the aroma of Montreal’s culinary delights, still cherish my familial connections to Nova Scotia, still marvel at the enduring culture and artistry of the Tlingit, still delight in the metropolitan flair of Ottawa, Canada’s capitol cit Fight the Future - LoadingReadyRun LoadingReadyRun What if your world, and everything you were brought up to believe, turned out to be a lie - except your feelings for the cute boy or girl you just met? Each episode, Dan and Paul take an in-depth look at a world portrayed in a Young Adult dystopian movie or book. How did they colour code uniforms in The Giver when everyone sees in black and white? In Divergent, what faction do sketch comedians belong to? These questions and more will discussed on Fight the Future!
