Curatorial Statement
No matter how DJs choose to mix, chop and spin their music, they always draw influence from the past. This year, we promise a musical journey that spans eras, taking you back to a time when funk, soul, R&B, jazz and disco were in heavy rotation. Our DJs bring an ambience to the rink, transforming your skating experience into a dance club on ice.
The Natrel® Rink is Toronto's most unique skating atmosphere and the perfect place to create winter memories. Get ready to lace up your skates and hustle on down every Saturday night as our DJs reminisce and rehash classic tunes, showing you the melodic transformation of past to current music and how they can create something unexpected and magical.
Some may play '50s soul paired with '60s funk and some may revive rockabilly, while others will fuse old school hip hop with upbeat bhangra or showcase soca legends blended with tropical Latin melodies.
This is epic music as mixed, blended and spun by our talented DJs.
