Kenny Glasgow has been making music, DJ’ing and running parties for almost as long as house music has been in existence, from the back streets of Toronto to his worldwide travels playing alongside the likes of Jeff Mills, Carl Cox, Green Velvet, Hell, Sven Vath, Dave Clark and Laurent Garnier. Glasgow’s latest outing is entitled ‘Final Frontier’ and takes the listener on a journey into the outer realms of electronica as only Kenny can. Warm and hypnotic, it has a timeless quality, part old school influence and part contemporary and highly unique. Kenny’s ability to produce rich, almost cinematic records is once again put on show, he is quite simply a class act and ‘Final Frontier’ stands up there with his best.

My Favorite Robot Records - The Best of Year One

Its hard to believe that My Favorite Robot Record Records is already One! So many amazing tracks, remixers, and collaborators have been involved in our first year and we are truly excited about the content that we've managed to put forth so far.
This album revisits all the best tracks from our first year and, with your purchase of the album, you will get at no additional cost a 74 minute continuous DJ mix from Rekids and MFR recording artist, James Teej.
Thanks for your continued support!
The My Favorite Robot imprint follow up the awesome Vandermeer single ‘Positive Light’ with another bold release, this time in the form of James Teej’s cover of the Bowie classic ‘Space Oddity’ backed with a stunning set of remixes....
Listen and Buy here: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/214820/Space%20Oddity%20EP
Taking on a cover version of a record such as David Bowie’s seminal ‘Space Oddity’ is not a task for the faint hearted, yet that is exactly what the much lauded James Teej has done with this latest single for the Canadian based My Favorite Robot label. Where many ‘dance music’ covers have failed in the past, with their leaning towards easy commercialism, this version of the much loved classic excels in every way, bringing a new vibe to a legendary composition and showing Teej’s talents as a first rate producer and a damn good vocalist to boot.
