Newtown Festival @ Camperdown Memorial Park (Sydney)

Submitted by AliaK on Wed, 08/11/2006 - 19:07

Sunday is the annual Newtown Festival and despite the festival being 'fenced off' it still promises to be a day of too much liquor and sun, too much dust and a welcome return of scruffiness to the north end of Newtown. At the Camperdown Memorial Park you can catch a bunch of great sounds at the 2SER stage (on the Camperdown/Hopetoun St side of the park) all day including our many of our friends - all totally free!

Submerged @ Abercrombie Hotel (Sydney)

Submitted by AliaK on Wed, 08/11/2006 - 18:56

Monthly dubstep night Submerged takes place at the Abercrombie Hotel from 8pm. It is totally free entry and this month features sets from ex-pat Mark Pritchard (Global Communications, Jedi Knights, Troubleman etc), Lorna, Eli, Zerodub and even Sub Bass Snarl (yep, another set - 1030pm for us). Eli spends all his budget on ensuring there is a most enormous and most stomach turning bass heavy PA possible in the venue so you can rest assured that you will be hearing dubstep the way it supposed be heard.

Free entry an early start and such a killer lineup really leaves you no excuses. More info and the flyer at http://gentleforce.blogspot.com/2006/11/submerged-thurs-9th-of-nov.html

The drummer formerly known as Bryan Ferrysexual has shifted into high gear song-writing wise and screeched out of 70s funk and into the shimmering future of funky dance-based, electro-rock music on this new leg of his spectacular musical journey. Grab your friends and come along for the ride! .............

Formed in 2006, and Sydney based, Super Massive have played a handful of shows around Sydney at venues such as Spectrum, @Newtown, The Excelsior Surry Hills, Lansdowne and the Agincourt Hotel.

Wickid Force breakers @ BOTY 2003, Sydney - video

Submitted by kathy on Sat, 09/09/2006 - 21:05




click here or on the image to play the quicktime movie

this is a video of the Wickid Force breakdance crew at Battle of The Year 2003 in Sydney, Australia. 09/08/2003

the audio is a bit distorted so you might want to turn it down, but it gives you an idea of the energy of their performance - both style and technical moves!

the video file is about 100Mb so could take a while to load depending on your net connection

I found a video of Wickid Force's performance at BOTY2003 Germany on youtube also @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrPRafzxye8

http://flickr.com/photos/aliak_com/tags/wikidforce/ has some photos from BOTY2000 in Hannover, Germany.
