There's a regular event on Friday nights in the basement of
Tonic (107 Norfolk St.) called The Polar Bear Club. The resident
DJs Timeblind and Two Lives play microsound + avant jazz +
stranger things, sometimes in lovely odd combinations
(Thomas Brinkmann + Alice Coltrane, or snd + Sonny Sharrock).

There's often a live set -- last night Francisco Lopez' set was stunning!
Christophe Charles, Main, and So Takahachi performed recently.

Live real-time nato.0+55 video is provided by Kurt Ralske and Jeremy
Bernstein.

Plus: it's free.
