Toronto After Dark, Return&Revolve, and Rhythmic Roots presents: CINTHIE at Standard Time!

Celebrating R&R’s 7 year anniversary!

German producer, DJ, label and record store owner Cinthie has become one of he most sought-after artists in the contemporary electronic scene. Dubbed by many as the Berlin Queen of House, the last decade has seen her become ar unstoppable force who has a touring schedule that takes her across the globe to perform at leading clubs and festivals across Europe, Asia, the Americas and beyond.

Cinthie's knowledge of house music's foundations is second to none, as reflected by the vast vinyl collection she has been building since 1995. Her DJ sets cleverly join the dots between the past and the present and plot lines between the swing of New York, the rawness of Chicago and the energy of Berlin. They're stripped back and emotive, whether deep or vocal, and always married to an irresistible groove.

In the studio, Cinthie has mastered the art of making maximum impact from bare musical essentials. For more than 20 years her timeless house sounds have come on labels like Heist, Aus Music and her own 803 Crystal Grooves, and in 2020 gave rise to her adventurous and accomplished debut album Skylines - City Lights.

Nicholas Nothing is a Toronto-based house DJ, producer, and event organizer. He’s played at the city’s most beloved dancefloors, sharing the decks with the likes of Black Loops, Chaos in the CBD, Chris Stussy, and more. Internationally, he’s performed at clubs and festivals across the United States, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Sweden. His music, released on All Blak Records, Clara Records, Selections, Stereo Ferment, and independently is defined by warm atmospheres and raw rhythmic grooves. Expect to hear him effortlessly transition between styles as he brings a feel-good energy and irresistible groove to the dancefloor.

RandomDoug (Douglas Shattler) discovered his passion for electronic music in the early 2000s after experiencing the energy of Toronto’s nightclub scene for the first time, instantly inspiring him to become part of it. He learned the craft through friends and hands-on practice, drawing influence from key Toronto artists such as El Duran, Paranoid Jack, Julien Loreto, Manzone & Strong, Carlo Lio, The Junkies, and Nathan Barato, as well as international acts including Dubfire, Danny Tenaglia, Steve Lawler, Nic Fanciulli, Stacey Pullen, and Technasia, shaping his sound in house, tech-house, and techno. In 2007, he landed his first official gig at Acid Lounge inside the Guvernment Nightclub, followed by a residency at Comfort Zone and regular bookings at Coda, One Loft, Vertigo, and other Toronto hotspots. Known for his approachable, community-driven presence, Doug values connecting with the crowd, reached a career highlight playing The BPM Festival in 2020, and in 2019 co-founded R&R (Return & Revolve) with his wife to create and promote events featuring local and international talent.

Come join us for a night of music, with the QUEEN of house music, Cinthie!
