He has been influenced by Larry Heard, Ron Hardy, Frankie Knuckles, Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson, Jeff Mills, Chez Damier, and the list goes on

Come support a night of great music and support one of Toronto’s unwavering event producers dedicated to bringing great talent and events to our city. Toronto it’s time to show some love and support to one of your own! Pull up and take a chance on me.

You will also get to hear the return of BASIC SOUL UNIT Sounds Good. He will be warming the room up with none other than HAF S.

HAF S (JEEP MIX) AKA HXF is a Toronto-based artist, DJ, producer, and cultural connector with over 25 years in the dance music scene. Synth-driven, burger-powered, and 99% Halal, HAF is a vibe cultivator supreme — blending syncopated rhythms, lush textures, and deep grooves into sets that move with intention. His sound is organic and emotional, balancing high energy with introspection, always reading the room and riding the moment.

Rooted in the foundations of house, techno, and everything in between, HAF’s work is all about bridging gaps — between genres, communities, generations, and dance floors. Collaboration is at the heart of everything he does. Whether it's linking with DJs and dancers, connecting producers and promoters, or building trust with venues, he brings people together to create something that lasts.

His creative world expands through (JEEP MIX)— a multifaceted platform that started as a long-running monthly radio show and evolved into a banner for events, DJ sets, production credits, and soon, a record label. (JEEP MIX) is more than a name — it’s a style, a design, a way of moving through the city. It represents the same values that drive HAF: community, quality, and pushing Toronto’s underground forward.

As a producer, HAF has released a range of original music and beat tapes — including an EP included on RE:THINK’S ANALOGUE STORIES series— gaining international attention while staying true to the sound and spirit of his hometown. His events are known for their focus and feel, built to uplift local talent and give real heads a space to connect.

Whether behind the decks, curating lineups, or holding down the airwaves, HAF is committed to documenting, building, and celebrating the sound of Toronto — from the basement to the booth, from the past to the future.

BASIC SOUL UNIT

Hong Kong born and raised in Canada, Stuart Li aka Basic Soul Unit has been steadily making his mark in underground electronic music circles since his first release in 2003. Stuart grew up listening to Toronto’s college radio stations and attended after hours parties playing underground house music. He later worked at Cosmos Records store which dealt vintage Jazz, Soul, Funk, Latin, Brazilian, Disco, House & Hip Hop to crate diggers both local and from abroad. Reflecting his diverse interest in music, Stuart's house & techno productions can swing from lush and soulful to crunchy and jacking . He has released and remixed music on respected labels such as Nonplus+, Dolly, Philpot, Mathematics, Mule Electronic, Versatile, Ostgut Ton, Créme Organization & New Kanada. The end of 2012 saw the the release of Basic Soul Unit’s first album “Motional Response” on Chicago’s Still Music to great critical acclaim. Cassy recently included 2 of Stuart’s tracks on her Fabric 71 mix CD for Fabric London. 2013 also marks the inaugural ep release of his own label Lab.our which he started with long time friend Jason Ulrich.

As with his productions, Stuart's strength as a DJ is his versatility. Depending on the night and the crowd, he can

throw down melodic techno, heavy jacking and industrial sounds, deep house, disco, and often a combination of

these. Basic Soul Unit has also been performing live over the last 2 years. Stuart’s live set expresses the rawness and honesty of his productions. Expect soulful melodies and squelching acid basslines intertwining with rough hewn beats & jacking rhythms.
