So to wrap up the festivities on Sunday, March 25, we couldn't think of a better place to be than at Last Resort , a morning-after party that gets cooking at 7 a.m.—yes, 7 a.m.—and goes 'til 7 a.m. the next day.

A few releases from Items & Things trickled out during the latter half of 2011, but the reinvigorated label is truly beginning to bear fruit in 2012, beginning with a Undercover , the soon-to-be-released new full-length from Marc Houle himself. Undercover won't officially see the light of day until March 5, but we invited the Canadian-born artist to put together an exclusive mix for the XLR8R podcast series ...
