:: SEVEN INCH ENTERTAINMENT MAIL-OUT 9.03 :: In this issue: - PHREAKIN - This weekend out :: PHREAKIN :: AT THE EXCHANGE HOTEL APRIL 25th. 2003 21:00-05:00 $10 (STUDENTS $8) The 7Inch Entertainment crew is proud to present their next electronic music event installation. The second Phreakin club night will hit town on Anzac day Friday the 25th of April at the Exchange Hotel, Flinders St. East in Townsville. Phreakin is the 7Inch Entertainment tag for clubnights focusing on the absolutely non-compromising and tougher- edged register of the electronic music spectrum. The music will be focussed around pumping and slamming grooves and loops traversing the boundaries of tribal house and techno, with a spot of breaks for flavour. The audio-visual parameters of Phreakin nights will follow the same quality oriented norms as our Decked Out events, featuring a massive and fully tuned audio rig with an array of visual entertainment units, piloted by our skilled VJs: Marc Sphere, Crispy and Jamie from Playboyz. The Phreakin main floor lineup will feature a returning visitor well known and respected by a swarm of dedicated local supporters. DJ Orinoko spent several years of the mid-nineties nested in the Townsville Underground were he was rigging events in at almost any conceivable venue. Especially reputed were his Voodoo Lounge parties at the Playpen. He then shifted south to Brisbane where he has spent the last 3 years cultivating the uncompromising electronic sound, kindling the reputation of his preferred genre - the sound that is Techno. A successful promoter of the acclaimed LiquidBASS events and part of the United Sound System crew (www.uss.com) DJ Orinoko has manned an impressive list of DJ rosters alongside the cream of International hard-groove acts, like Jeff Mills (us), Space DJs (uk), Ben Sims (uk), Chester Beatty (jp), Kazu Kimura (jp), as well as lots of national talent. He has a pronounced knack for creating dance floor action and a mixing style characterized by versatility, attitude and a funkified tribal sound all as you may have experienced already at the first Phreakin event back in December 2002. 7Inch Entertainment is also proud to present the first Live P.A. performance at our Australian events. This goodie is delivered by locally residing act, "The International Colouring Contest" He will be displaying a wide array of avant-garde sounds and emphasizing his personalized take on house and techno. The main-floor host at Phreakin is DJ Nick Ho, who is fresh back from a mini-tour of BrisVegas over the Easter holidays. Nick Ho has been very active in the Intercontinental Studio with fellow Dane and deciBel producer partner Thomas Schreiber. Some of the resultant crop of tracks has been dispatched to signifying Australian independent labels, including Wet Musik in Melbourne, Cliq Recordings in Sydney and Thrillseekers Records in Adelaide. An incentive for targeting labels in Australia is of course to prepare for a future unison of the two Danish deciBel partners for a string of live act performances around the red continent. Nick Ho will be bracketing the two visiting artists displaying his world-acclaimed turntable piloting skills featuring a fury of funky tribal loops and blistering beats, of course including a slew of unreleased deciBel cuts. Doors open at 21:00 with a stack of sponsor presents up for grabs for early birds who will also enjoy happy hour at the bar until 23:00. With a 5AM ending, the cover charge is $10 with a $2 discount for students. All patrons must show 18+ ID at the door. Full event details for Phreakin will continue to tick in on this list so stay tuned.
