GIG: Jam - Conch Takeover Sat 13th Oct @ Verona

Written By 1 - October 08 2012

Jam - Sat 13th October
CONCH TAKEOVER!
At Verona Cafe, 169 K'Rd
from 10pm-ish - NO DOOR CHARGE
  Fonk Promotions supported by Acoustix Hearing Technologies, proudly present 'Jam' - 5 DJs, 2 tune rotation backtoback ALL NIGHT! Thanks to all those who came out to join us last month, so to keep you smiling here we go for another round of 2for2 tune action - now at our fabulous new location, the wonderfully re-furbished Verona Café on K Road (gotta love those Espresso Martinis!) Brought out of semi-retirement by CoopaBlu and AveragewhiteDJ - and this month we have a very special 'Conch Records Takeover' with Dustin, B+ and Cian all hitting the decks. We'll be putting them under the usual pressure - but you can guarantee that it will be a belter!
So head out and join the madness, with a night of straight out trussed-up funk, boogie, twisted-disco and pretty much anything Saturday night - all in the traditional Jam style of a 2for2 tune rotation. Can (and pretty much will) go anywhere musically.------------- Once again we would like to thank our sponsor, Acoustix Hearing Technologies. The smart cookies down at Acoustix have setup a hearing protection initiative called "Don't Lose The Music" which raises awareness about preserving hearing while enjoying it - especially loud!Wearing quality musician hearing protection or custom built In-ear-monitors should become a “must have” for all musicians, DJs, VJs and sound engineers in order to preserve their hearing during their career and minimise their risk of premature hearing loss. Acoustix are the guys who know their stuff. Head over and Like their Facebook page or check out their products at http://www.dontlosethemusic.co.nz/

CHARITY CD: Rise & Shine - Made In Japan, Assembled In Aotearoa

Written By 1 - June 12 2012

Rise & Shine, A 80 Minute Mix Of 100% Japanese Music To Help Raise Funds For The Red Cross Within Japan, $25 Available Here From Conch 

This compilation is the result of a special two hour Earshot radio show Cian did on the 11th March 2012. This particular date marked the one year anniversary of the 8.9 magnitude earthquake and resulting tsunami that caused massive destruction and loss of life in Japan.

In addition, the earthquake and tsunami triggered the biggest nuclear crisis since Chernobyl when three reactors at the nearby Fukushima nuclear power plant melted down.

This fall out sparked mass evacuations, leaving large areas ghost towns to this day. Unlike the immediate impacts of the natural disasters the casualties of the fall out will continue for decades to come.

The response from the radio show both here and overseas, prompted me to put together a proper 80 minute mix CD consisting of 100% Japanese artists and music.

The clean up and restoration of life in Japan to what it once was is far from over. If you would like to help then simply purchase this CD. All proceeds will go to the Red Cross to eventually allow those affected to hopefully get back on their feet.
