The fine folks at Herohill have taken on an interesting project, I will be curious to see the future mixes roll out and what places like Manitoba, which you don’t normally hear a lot about, offer up.

From the project’s introductory post:

Anyway. Back to the post. Shane and I are trying to do a little Canadian based project. The goal obviously is to keep showcasing the splendor that is Canadian music. So the goal is to make a mix for each province, and have you the readers decide who you think deserves to represent each province.

We are going to start with Nova Scotia, as we were born there and really spend a lot of our time trying to highlight the Halifax scene. So next Saturday we will be posting the first installment of this series (tentatively called The Big Doe-nair Rehab). If you have any bands that you think deserve to be added to the NS (or any other province), let us know.

And here is the Nova Scotian* edition: The Big Doe-nair Rehab

* Mainly focused on bands based out of Halifax, while I am sure there are dozen of worthy bands from all parts of the province omitted, Company House Records in Cape Breton deserves a nod at least for being home to Carmen Townsend and the Shaky Deals, Slowcoaster and the Tom Fun Orchestra.

Also Dreamsploitation makes the mix too – sweet – Thanks guys.
