PAGE 6 NORTHSIDE SHORTS SUNDAY - There will be a Sunday Afternoon BINGO at the Sydney Mines Seniors & Pensioners Club, 2 Fraser Avenue, Sydney Mines. EVERY TUESDAY - 8 PM - BINGO - at ther Branch 008 Legion Sydney Mines. Exercise classes for the Sydney Mines Seniors & Pensioners Club, will be held DAVID GUETTA - Listen - In case you didn t know, French DJ David Guetta is arguably the most successful DJ out there. He was officially introduced to the world in 2009 with his One Love album that had 3 number one hits on it; he followed that up in 2011 with the Nothing But The Beat album-it had 5 hits on it and has sold over 3 million copies. Last year Billboard crowned When Love Takes Over as the number one dance-pop collaboration of all time, and Guetta has sold over six million albums and over 15 million singles worldwide. As well, in 2011 Guetta was voted the #1 DJ in the DJ Mag Top 100DJ s fan poll. He really was the first DJ to hit the mainstream in a big way. This, his 6 th studio album starts off with a big surprise; the lead track Dangerous is definitely not an EDM number-with vocals by Sam Martin the song is 100% Top 40 pop/ rock. There is a pumped up remix on the deluxe version of the album that is more EDM oriented, and both versions use orchestration and symphonic elements in groundbreaking ways. Actually, all of the songs here have a fresh and unique spark to themfor instance Lift Me Up is a warm, worldbeat oriented number that features Nico and Vinz and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Sun Goes Down is very much a funkedup reggae song that sounds like something The Police would have done-and that s all down to the every Tuesday at 1:00 pm EXCEPT the FIRST Tuesday of every month when it will be held in the evening 6:00 p m. For the latest and most comprehensive list of local events, logon to - www.musiccapebreton.com Mike Little updates his listings each week. BY PAUL POWER Canadian band Magic!. It must have been a total blast for the band to be invited to work with Guetta. There are also a good number of very creative EDM-oriented songs here too; No Money No Love, Hey Mama (with Nicki Minaj), Listen (with John Legend) and Lovers On The Sun all have that EDM element to them, but they also have something that sets them apart from the crowd. When it came to making the album David said that his personal life tempered the process, reflecting his divorce from Cathy Guetta (they were married for 22 years) making this his most personal album yet, to quote him; until today I was doing lots of songs about happiness and love and sexiness and just having a party it was basically my life, you know? And lately, my personal life has been a little more difficult, so it reflects also on the album, on the things that we re talking about, on the type of chords. I ve never done this, because even for me it was all about making the people dance. Those feelings are reflected so very well on the closing track; The Whisperer is a slow, almost melancholic number you d expect from, say Adele, not David Guetta. The song features vocals by longtime Guetta collaborator Sia. It is definitely a heartfelt number, and a wonderful one. I can t say that this is David Guetta s best album-that s too close to call-it is however a fantastic one that exceeds all expectations, and then some. 50/50 DRAW - North Sydney & District Minor Hockey winner this week was Marlene Gillis and the amount was 9,553. 45s Card Game held every Thursday evening at the Southside Boularderie Fire Hall at 7:30 pm.
