NEIGHBOURHOOD :: MC TALI & THE NOMAD :: 25/11/04
A double whammy for you this month: not only the London debut of the prolific producer The Nomad but also a live PA by Christchuch born, Bristol based MC Tali.
The Nomad has been releasing quality dub influenced tracks since 1998, and has worked with Salmonella Dub, Fat Freddys Drop, OG, and Pepsi of Pepsi & Shirley (Wham’s old backing singers!). His live set is a journey through the genres (not as naff as it sounds … honest!), stepping up from deep dubs to bass heavy breakbeats. For more info, check www.thenomad.co.nz.
Tali has found fame and fortune with Roni Size’s Full Cycle crew after a chance encounter at a club in Melbourne. Her tunes “Lyric on my lip” and “Blazin'” have become drum’n’bass anthems and anyone who has seen her live knows that this girl rocks! For more info, check www.mctali.com.

OUR WEBSITE :: WWW.SPACIFIC.NET
Finally our website will go up on Friday 12th November after months of dithering and many false starts. It is still very much unfinished but at least it is better than it was!
At the moment there is information on our forthcoming events, a calendar of gigs in England by New Zealand artists and DJs, biographies of artists, DJs and labels, CD reviews, articles on New Zealand culture and some cocktail recipes!
We intend to add a forum, an online store and media facilities over the next few months, plus tweak the existing content.
Any feedback you may have would be much appreciated, as would contributions of content. Just email us at kiaora@spacific.net.
