Tomorrowpeople '(Got The) Time?' Remix EP

Now available on Soundcloud is the Tomorrowpeople '(Got The) Time?' Remix EP.

'(Got The) Time?' featuring the Earl of Kingsland was originally produced in 2003, and created as an entry to the Heineken Thirst DJ/producer competition where it was a finalist. The track was also pressed as a one-off acetate speciailly to use in the DJ set as part of the competition.

In 2004 the track was included on a compilation CD of New Zealand electronic artists for Air New Zealand Fashion Week, compiled by Simon Grigg. Other artists on the album included Nathan Haines & Joost Langeveld, Relaxomatic Project, Minuit, Fat Freddy’s Drop, House Of Downtown, Soane, Dub Asylum, Headless Chickens, Rob Salmon, Baitercell & Timmy Schumacher and Concord Dawn.

In 2009 I made the stems available for remixes. Finally in 2013 I have finally been able to make the results available, ten years after the original production. The remixes are from Auckland's Greg Churchill (two remixes) and (Anthony) Gold plus Berlin's Simon Beeston. Also included is the original plus an instrumental version.
Free download available. Thanks to all the producers involved - the remixes are cool.

Bibirosi Album Cover

Artwork for Wantok release "Bibirosi" - a collection of songs from PNG performed by Wailliam Takaku and Pidia Kaur Group.

“Traditionally, arts and ceremony were used to pass on beliefs, morality and codes of behaviour. Ceremonial art was integral to the ordering of society. Stories often used environmental metaphors. Tradition was based on a respect for the environment, a harmonious relationship with it. It was not a hierarchical situation in which the environment was secondary, as is the case in a technological age.
Through music we cross the line between life and death”
– William Takaku

David Bridie "WAKE" album out now

David Bridie's new album "Wake" is out now.
I was lucky enough to contribute some synth/keyboards to a couple of tracks on this album.

David says:
“I wanted to forge my own direction on this record, write the best songs I could, joining together all the various influences, gathering together all the musicians I have an affinity with, to come up with something that I could say I was proud of” he says. “I needed to stop being distracted, to lose myself inside the process, and make the best record I could, a record of substance.”

Check out David on the "Wake" tour in Australia, June through August.
