Public Transit Recordings is dedicated to all the people who nod their heads to beats while riding the rails..or the bus..you know who you are.. If you come to Toronto you'll see that we are one of the few cities with a public transit system that uses buses, streetcars and subways.. In one journey you could ride all three.. and most definitely there is a lot of ground to cover.. the TTC (www.ttc.ca) is essential for every day life in the City..whether you're commuting to work... or maybe digging for gems at Ricks @ Main&Gerrard, then you might want to grab a dosa in Little India, or look for that new but rare omniverse 7inch @ playderecord on yonge.. then head to the AGO cinematheque and catch a rare foreign flick on the big screen.. after that head up to St. Clair and Vaughan for a roti from alberts real jamaican.. then jump on the Vaughan Rd..90 up to Eglinton West and start combing through the record stores in Little Jamaica, then its off to islington and albion north west of the city for a nice veggie thali and say what up to the Rexdale massive!!.. Thats what I call a full days work!! No doubt.. make sure you recharge the batteries on your walkman, and grab a metropass or a day pass.... That's the vibe of PTR, when we started to label back in 1998, we (Moonstarr and the Crew) were just buggin out on the train listening to all the hype demos we were getting.. heads like Abacus, Don Ray, Rosina, Murr, Adam Carty, Audix, Getnice/Genetic, Archetype/Monochrome, Todd Sines.. these Cats put it down for real!! Code416 emerged and layed the blueprint for what was to follow.. Since then we've collaborated and hung out with so many talented and gifted musicians, producers, djs and artists.. peoble like LAL, Marc Mac, Somatik, Voice, Eluna, Maxelle, Scott C, Andy Williams, More or Les, Rahim, Tashish, Prasad Bidaye, Vision, Archive, M-Rock, Jugular, Gurpreet, Brian Gillespie, Ashwin Tumne and the WYEP Afronaughts, Rushhour, Faces Crew, Sonar Kollektiv, Technoir, Elemental Crew, TheCyberkrib, Goya Music, Michael Reinboth, Michael Rutten..I could go on for days.. .. Broken Beat, Techno, Hip Hop, D&B, downbeat.. we don't care music is music.. as a collective we can do more, just like mass transit!! Big ups!! we pay homage to all those who came before us, to those who inspired us, and to those who will continue to be the true innovators of the future.. yeah you know it..PTR dedicated to the transit riders, to the true eco warriors that take the David Suzuki nature challenge (www.davidsuzuki.org).. for the heads that believe in true social justice for all.. for the heads that protest silently and loudly.. and most importantly for the heads that just want to nod their heads to the fattest beats wherever they are..hopefully riding public transit!! .. PEACEOUT...PTR
