Antidote Magazine
The Remedy is Diversity
Camille Munn sings like someone who grew up with the good records on in the house and decided, eventually, to make her own version of them. Her sound is sleek, eighties-touched soul: clean lines, warm synths, a voice that sits right on top of the groove instead of fighting it. This is not a throwback act.

Diversity is not a trend we follow, it is the very medicine we prescribe. It is the antidote to the mundane, the predictable, and the painfully generic.

Antidote Magazine is an urban lifestyle guide published from Ottawa since 2001. It was founded on a suspicion: the most interesting culture in a city rarely happens at centre stage. It happens in record shops and listening bars, in club booths at 2 a.m., in the margins of other people’s records.
Twenty-five volumes in, the brief has not changed. If it is made with obsession — a Detroit record that takes all night to say its piece, a London jazz band playing like it is a contact sport, a Montreal hotel room wired like a gallery — it belongs here, covered in long form by people who were actually listening.
More voices, more rooms, more records. The remedy is diversity is not a slogan the magazine inherited. It is the assignment, renewed every issue since 2001.
