8Emissive (a.k.a. Evan Vincent) has been steadily climbing the rungs of Toronto's dance scene for a number of years, to the point where he's now an integral part of it. His sets are an eclectic journey, full of varying styles, twists and oddball tracks that might struggle to land in anyone else's hands, but he glues it all together seamlessly. This is why you can toss him in almost anywhere: when a legendary house producer like Levon Vincent comes to town, Emissive can support him, and when an atypical, impossible-to-classify act like Actress swings by, Emissive is perfectly matched to open for him, too. That kind of range is rare, but he's got it, and isn't afraid to use it.
