Toronto's finest DJs and musicians come together this weekend for a celebration of Toronto's bumping tropical music movement, featuring: Cuban MC Telmary, who's poetic touch has made her a mainstay on Canada's world-music stages including the Montreal Jazz Festival, Luminato, Harbourfront Centre and Lula Lounge. ¡Bom Senso!

Uma Nota and Footprints founder and resident General Eclectic is one of Toronto's best-known DJs, recognized for making a lot of hips shake with his deep crates and vintage grooves.
