town for two gigs, boxingday at Embassy for 
:: BOOTLEG :: and Dec. 28th at Exchange for :: PHREAKIN :: - Flyers out all 
over!

:: ORINOKO DJ BIOGRAPHY ::
With a knack of blending & mixing a variety of styles into a sound and groove 
of his own, Orinoko can make the floor move. Tribal beats, hard breaks and 
funkified techno are some of the sounds to be heard from the womble. This 
attitude has seen Orinoko support some of the worlds best techno talent 
including Jeff Mills, Space DJs, Ben Simms, Devilfish, Chester Beatty, Dr. 
Motte, Kazu Kimura, DeeDee, Slack, Slieker, Simon Digby, DiskoPussy and Simon 
Coyle. As one half of Phreakin Productions, Orinoko works along with fellow 
techno head and longtime business partner DJ Shadrach. Originally hailing from 
North Qld and starting to promote nights and spin records in mid-'95 Orinoko 
has spent the last 3 years in Brisbane cultivating the sound that is techno. 
From October 2000 to December 2001 Orinoko was one half of the team behind 
Brisbane's longest running weekly techno night "lucid". The night ran every 
Saturday night @ Mantra nightclub (RIP). He is also responsible for 
organising/promoting a number of one-off parties (Hypnosis, Fuse, Acidisco, 
liquidBASS), Orinoko is always on the go, never tireless in the pursuit of 
getting a groove on the floor. For 2002, Orinoko and Phreakin Productions have 
moved solely into party mode with a string of successful nights, 'liquidBASS'. 
These nights have gained a cult following firmly placing them in hearts of the 
Brisbane underground, each bigger and better than the last with no sign of them 
slowing down and the emphasis placed purely on quality music rocking the dance 
floor. The latest, in conjunction with TeriYakiAnakiSaki (Melbourne) and 
Tek-Ni-Kal (Syd), successfully toured Japanese techno pounder Chester Beatty 
around Australia. The success and quality presented @ liquidBASS has led to a 
liquidBASS stage @ the forthcoming Slinky in the Park festival to be held in 
Brisbane on New Years Day. With an international lineup including Carl Kennedy 
(Cream, UK) , Jody Wistenernoff (UK), Rachel Auburn (UK), Pete Wardman (UK) 
Infusion and Resin Dogs the New Years day in Brisvegas will be rocking to the 
tech funk sound of Orinoko and the liquidBASS crew. Phreakin Productions have 
also joined forces with a number of other local production crews to form the 
United Sound System. The aim behind USS has been to share experience and 
resources to put on quality dance events and of cause, to rip up the floor.The 
Groove is yet to stop and the future is bright.


:: VALLI LEE DJ BIOGRAPHY :: 
Valli Lee knew she had music in her blood from her earliest beginnings to her 
first party in 1998. She has shown that her technique and intuition for the 
floor is spot on.  Her DJing style does not merely revolve around filling a 
dance floor; it's all about getting people to listen and move to new and 
innovative sounds. In 2001, Valli Lee co-promoted her own club night "Fresh 
cut" in Brisbane at Club Mantra.  The night covered all styles of music 
concentrating on funk-fused techno and drum 'n' bass and ran until the untimely 
demise of the venue.  During this time, she developed new skills and a partner 
in crime, DJ Cam.  This "decklicious duo" teamed up under the moniker Mix 'n' 
FX for Geisha in August 2001, to raise money for Breast Cancer Research and 
they were a huge success.  Together they have performed at Sonic Animation's 
Reality by Deception tour, liquidBASS and have supported some of the best 
International and Australian electronic artists. Valli Lee's appreciation for 
music heightened when she was joined the Sanity Dance Arena Team in August 2001 
as the Techno and Tech-House Vinyl Buyer.  Over the past year, she has expanded 
the vinyl selection and encouraged the growth of this particular genre in the 
dance music community. Valli Lee's professionalism and skills have seen her 
support International and Australian electronic artists and DJs including 2002 
ARIA winners 1200 Techniques (x2), Sonic Animation (x2), Pound System, Princess 
Superstar (USA), DJ Tye (Taiwan), Dee Dee, Slack, Diskopussy and most recently 
ChesterBeatty (Japan).  She will perform at Slinky in the Park on New Years Day 
supporting such acts as Carl Kennedy (Cream, Miss Moneypennys), Jody Wisternoff 
(Way Out West), Rachel Auburn (Tidy Trax), Kazu Kimura (CLR Recordings), Kid 
Kay Ferris (NineONine Records), Infusion (Thunk Recordings) and Resin Dogs.


The year to come
Lots of good stuff for you all in 2003!

University O-WEEK wil feature two on-campus events from us. We are still 
toiling with ideas to make new students aware of our activities. Please push 
the mailinglist to any newcomers you may bump into or forward a copy of our 
mailout to them. 

Our new website should be online during January - Think Dirty does some pretty 
out-there design and code, so expect a delicious site.

As you know we have done preliminary scheduling for ten up-beat events during 
2003. We will have some big act's coming to town (Interstate and international 
acts are being negotiated with - the first international slammer potentially 
landing already in February). 

Furthermore, we will be rigging a massive outdoor electronica event during the 
winter months. This event will feature top Australian acts, the devastating 
audible power of Wild Gravity's BIG festival rig, a full colour laser system 
and loads of moving head visuals to boot. We will need helpers for this one, so 
please contact us if you are keen (admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)

More input on the artist vote would be great, although lots of responses have 
been received with gratitude. So, if you care to voice your opinion, please 
take a pick from below mentioned artists, rank them by preference on a 1-5 
scale and send off the result to admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with artist vote 
in the subject line. Please have your vote with us a.s.a.p. You may also wish
