It features music posts (videos, etc) on an almost daily basis, plus features such as album reviews and artist interviews. The blog has premiered works by the likes of:  Ylang Ylang (Montreal), Eliza Niemi (Toronto)

Mark’s record label, Baffled Octopi Records, produces local music compilations (e.g. the Victoria Secret series), in addition to the electronic music of Purveyors of Free Will, Always a Bad Thing, General Purv and others. In an exciting move forward, the label will be working in association with Surkeus Records for future endeavors.
