Aotea Square (F***ing ruled back in the day!)

A sweet excuse for a party on a Monday night! Mondays are hospo night at Cassette #9 and the past few times that I’ve DJed there it has been cranking, which is bizarre to me but awesome at the same time. Come down and celebrate the epicness of the late great Aotea Square with us!

The night that I DJed for Ghostface Killah!

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

Me, Ghost and Wigs

This weekend just passed, Ghostface Killah of the Wu-Tang Clan blessed New Zealand with his first live performance in the country; only the third original founding member of the Wu-Tang Clan to come to our shores. He played at the Powerstation in Auckland with Shaun Wigs and Du Lilz of Theodore Unit and tore it down! Suffice to say it was one of the illest shows I’ve been to. But this ain’t no gig review, this is the story about how I DJed for Ghostface Killah… yeah, you read that right, I DJed for Ghostface Killah, no bullshit! How did this come to be? Allow me to explain…

The following is my recollection of the events leading up to and including my DJ set at the Ghostface Killah after-party and is the god-honest 100% truth! Give me five to ten minutes of your time and I’ll give you an entertaining read. (more…)

ABC Exhibition and video premiere

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

hype

Yup, this Thursday ABC will be holding their Brothers exhibition which will feature artwork from the following mean dudes: Phat1, Lee Ralph, Rakai Karaitana, Glenn Smith, Levi Hawken, and Chey Ataria. There’s sneak peeks up here at the ABC website and it’s looking pretty mean bradas. If you’re into artwork or into being cool, this is probably the place you wanna be at.

ALSO they’ll be premiering Ninja vs Warrior the ABC/Expertise tour video at 9:30pm. It’s  gonna be mental, I can’t fucken wait. I had a sneak peek of some of Joe Whaanga’s footy and it was beyond good.

Catch you’s up there.

Mixmaster Mike @ Fu tonight

Mixmaster Mike @ Fu - 30 May 2008

Yo, if you are looking for something to do tonight head down to Fu ‘cos Mixmaster Mike is gonna be performing there. For the unitiated not only is MMM the Beastie Boy’s resident DJ, he was the ‘92 NMS battle champ, he was DMC World champ alongside Q-Bert in ‘92 and ‘93 before being asked not to enter because him and Q-Bert were too good, not to mention being the guy that influenced one of the most influential DJs of our generation, Q-Bert. Oh yeah, he also communicates to aliens via scratching… I saw him last time he played at Fu ’bout two years ago, dude is insane!!! Anyways, I’ll prolly be there with D-Form and Truent analysing his tweak scratch, lol.

… not Hov. After taking all the correct entries, placing them in a hat, and picking out a winner at random: The double pass to the Serato 10th birthday party goes to Mr Dave Roebeck. Thanks to all you folks for your entries, there was plenty of them – however very few of them actually had the correct answer – LOL.

There are currently 3
Serato Scratch Live interfaces on the market.

Please forward all complaints about the question on to Nick, he masterminded it. Regardless, we hope to still see all of you there as it shall be an occasion not to be missed. Mean!
