BAR ACADEMY :: NATHAN KING, JAYSON NORRIS + THE THIN MEN :: 27/05/07

To celebrate New Zealand Music Month, we are putting on a selection of some of the finest London based expat talent, all for the bargain price of a fiver!

First up will be Jayson Norris, our favourite laidback Pacifican troubadour, whose live sets are becoming more and more popular throughout the capital. If you don’t know him you can check him out at www.jaysonnorris.com.

Then we have the wonderful Thin Men, who manage to merge Southern Gothic styles with touches of country and lots of love. They are at www.myspace.com/thethinmen2

Our final act for the night is the former lead singer of Zed (remember them?), Nathan King, now firmly ensconced in London, forging ahead with his solo project. He is at www.nathankingmusic.com.

Tickets: £5 +b/f from Ticketweb (08700 600 100) or £8 on the door.

BIG CHILL BAR :: THE KINGSLAND VINYL APPRECIATION SOCIETY :: 02/05/07

Will of the KVAS undoubtedly holds the title for the longest DJ name in NZ. He is over in the UK to pick up one of the coolest products we have heard of in a while: a double vinyl compilation, featuring unreleased tracks by some choice NZ artists: Shihad, Straitjacket Fits, The Mint Chicks and HDU amongst others. Hopefully he will be in possession on the night, and as well as spinning some of the tunes, may be willing to part with company of them for some crisp English Sterling – come prepared!

From: 7pm til 12am
On: Dray Walk, just off Brick Lane, London E1 6QL
Nearest tubes: Liverpool Street or Aldgate East
Website: www.bigchill.net/bar.html
*******************************************************************************************
KOKO :: DAVE DOBBYN :: 21/06/07

There isn’t much that can be said about Dave Dobbyn that you probably don’t know already: living legend, national icon, singer songwriter par example, all round good bloke! His live shows are renowned not just for the songs, but for the in between banter – jokes, tales of misdemeanors past and other musings on life, the universe and everything else.

But it is his songs that he is most famous for, with 7 of them being voted into the top 50 favourite Kiwi songs of all time in a recent poll by Telecom. And doubtless those seven will all get rolled out on this night, as well as countless others.

Tickets: £15 +b/f from Ticketweb (08700 600 100)
Alternatively you can pick them up for no booking fee at KOKO’s box office during office hours.

From: 7.30pm til 12am
On: 1a Camden High Street, London NW1 7JE
Nearest tubes: Mornington Crescent

MATARIKI ART EXHIBITION

Some enterprising members of Ngati Ranana, the London Maori Club, are holding an exhibition on Saturday June 23rd in East London and are looking for submissions from UK based artists. There is more on this at www.spacific.net/index.php/sp/information/articles/matariki_art_exhibition

*******************************************************************************************
THE BEST FLAT WHITE IN LONDON?

Several years ago, an intrepid Kiwi explorer went out into the coffee desert of London to report on where to get the best flat white in town. Her report is up at www.spacific.net/index.php/sp/information/articles/in_search_of_the_perfect_flat_white.

Since then, several Kiwi owned and managed coffee shops have opened up, including Flat White and Sacred in Soho, so it seemed only fair to conduct another survey. We are looking for someone to conduct this incredibly stressful task! We can’t pay you for your time unfortunately, but we will pay for all the coffees you taste and give you a pair of free tickets to one of the shows we are promoting in London this year.

If you would like to give this a go, please email us at kiaora@spacific.net.

BIG CHILL BAR :: PSYROK :: 04/04/07

We are honoured to present the debut “DJ” set from London based expat Simon “Psyrok” next month. He has been beavering away in the studio for some time “producing strange and beautiful music for beautiful and strange people” (his own words) and this will be his first public outing – so be nice! You can check him out at psyrok.co.uk.

ISLINGTON ACADEMY :: ELEMENO P + STERIOGRAM :: 05/04/07

Making this the rockiest start to a year ever for Spacific, Elemeno P will now be joined by Steriogram and Deja Voodoo for their inaugural London show.

For those of you who have managed to avoid them thus far, power pop rockers Elemeno P burst onto the scene back in 2003 with their “Love and Disrespect” album, whose simple guitar driven pop songs with big choruses pushed them to sales of over 45,000 albums in NZ alone. They built on this success with 2005’s “Trouble in Paradise”, which spawned hit singles, “One Left Standing” and “Burn” and helped them to win Best Group at the NZ Music Awards that year.

Steriogram tasted similar success with their debut album, “Schmack”. Singed by legendary American label Capitol Records, they toured the US for over a year, and hit the big time when their “Walkie Talkie Man” track was used in one of the first iPod campaigns. This pushed them into the Top 20 in the UK and led to further hits worldwide. Tired of major label shenanigans, they have just released their second album, “This Is Not The Target Market” on their own label.

Deja Voodoo began as the fictional house band for the show Back of the Y Masterpiece Television. The 15 seconds of mimed rock’n’roll these three posers produced at the start of each episode was enough to score them a nationwide Orientation tour, and they have carried on from there. If you like badly played metal solos, lame Exponents-like songs and moronic vocalisation – you’ll love Deja Voodoo!

BIG CHILL HOUSE :: WAITANGI DAY :: 06/02/07

This year’s Waitangi Day event will be at The Big Chill House, the Big Chill Festival’s latest venue. This is because the lovely people who manage it have offered to pay the costs themselves, so that there will be no entry charge, which strikes us as a good thing!

A lush 3 floored venue, The Big Chill House is just by Kings Cross station and has an excellent restaurant that will be serving Kiwi flavoured snacks on the night, 2 mezzanine lounge areas looking over the main space, a sunken Swedish style basement with fake fire, and an upstairs cocktail lounge which we will only use if things get very hectic downstairs. If you would like to book a table or an area these are the numbers: to book a table call 020 7427 2541; to reserve an area call 020 7427 2540.

We will be starting at 5pm, with DJ Ajax spinning Kiwi classics and more, until Ngati Ranana, the London Maori Club, perform at 8pm, to be swiftly followed by our favourite London based singer songwriter, Jayson Norris. To finish the night off in style, Nick Lloyd and guests will play until midnight, when we should all probably troupe off home!

From: 5pm til 12am.

SHEPHERDS BUSH EMPIRE :: THE FEELERS :: 01/02/07

Fresh from a stadium tour of NZ, The Feelers will make a welcome return to the UK next month, with support from the sublime Anika Moa.

The Feelers have dominated the New Zealand charts and album sales for the past decade: their three hit albums have spawned over 20 top 20 singles, including monster hits such as “Supersystem”, “Venus” and “Stand Up”, and their just-released album, “One World”, debuted at Number 1 last November. They have also won three APRA Silver Scroll Awards for the highest played songs on radio nationwide and all of their albums have achieved multi platinum sales selling over 200,000 albums. This will be their first concert in London for three years.

Singer-songwriter Anika Moa entered the New Zealand music scene with her album “Thinking Room” which debuted at Number 1 and reached double-platinum sales status. Singles such as ‘Youthful’, ‘Good In My Head’, and ‘Falling In Love Again’ became massive hits, making Anika one of New Zealand’s leading female artists. Her second album, Stolen Hill, was recorded at Bethell’s Beach, on the West coast of Auckland, and displayed a more reflective side to her character, addressing political, cultural and personal issues in more depth than on “Thinking Room”. Her songs explored the notion of Aotearoa’s nationhood and in particular the recurrent themes of her own Maori heritage; the legacy of culture, land and tangata whenua.

Isaac Tucker aka Ike first made a name for himself back home as part of the group, New Loungehead, then went on to make drum’n’bass as Cuba & Gizmo, before settling down into his current role as drummer for cult punk-funk/electro band Spektrum, whose “Kinda New” was the dancefloor hit of 2005. Their new album is due out early November and Isaac will be spinning some sneaky preview tunes.

From: 7pm til 12am

BIG CHILL BAR :: FUNKNSLOCUTS :: 01/11/06

Better known as the smooth headed keyboard operator out of ‘Minuit’, FunknSloCuts is Ryan Behre’s production and DJ alter ego. For several years now he has been beavering away, laying down big beats and fat synth bass lines, often sacrificing his relationship with his neighbours due to noise complaints! Recent treats to come out of his studio include his sterling remix of Pitch Black’s “Freefall” and Minuit’s own “Fuji”. He has also been playing shows throughout NZ, often in the wind up or wind down slots at Minuit gigs, wowing audiences till breakfast time with the freshest and classiest prime breakbeat cuts.

THE RHYTHM FACTORY :: MINUIT :: 02/11/06

Electro-breaks trio Minuit have forged a singular path through New Zealand’s dance music scene, at odds with its obsession with reggae, dub and hip hop. Their angular breakbeats and Ruth Carr’s vocal style seemingly owe more to urban metropolises like London, so it is only fitting that they are finally making their way over here to play a few shows and help promote the 12’’ release of “Fuji”, taken from their last album, “The Guards Themselves”.

You can check them out at www.myspace.com/minuittheband and their latest video is up at www.youtube.com/watch?v=7U7KDsPjRNs. Supporting them on the night will be DJs Tim Squier, FunknSloCuts and Finland’s DJ Infekto vs Rico Tubbs.

Their latest project is a collection of remixes, featuring versions by The Mad Professor, Pitch Black, Chong Nee and many more. That CD, Homegrown Dub, will be available on the night, as will a selection of tour T-Shirts. Spinning classic reggae tunes before and after will be DJ Killamanraro.

The Coronet is a wonderfully refurbished old theatre right at the heart of Elephant and Castle, and thankfully about 2 minutes walk from the tube station. Not only does the tube run until 12.15 on both Bakerloo and Northern Lines, but there are night buses from just outside the venue that go all over London.
