Big Village – Record Label Launch

Just received some info on a new independent Aussie Hip Hop label starting
up in Sydney with a great roster upcoming talent.  Check em out and make
sure you go to the launch.  Sounds like a great night.



Big Village – Record Label Launch

Sat 7th August
Sandringham Hotel, 387 King st Newtown
8pm $10
Tickets available from Moshtix

Big Village is an independent record label representing the
new wave of Sydney’s finest Hip Hop artists.


Tired of jostling for recognition as individual groups, Big Village artists
came together to forge a joint identity and carve out new opportunities on
their own terms. 


To celebrate the label’s formation, they will be throwing a massive launch
party at the Sandringham Hotel on Saturday August 7th
Performing on the night will be the full Big Village stable, consisting of
Daily Meds, Loose Change, True Vibenation, Tuka (Thundamentals),
DJ Max Gosford, DJ Morgs and hosted by Jeswon.

The label was founded by the artists it represents and members of all the
groups contribute their expertise to the running of the organisation.  With
True Vibenation, Loose Change and Daily Meds already having released
projects under the Big Village banner, 2010 will continue to see more high
quality releases from the BV stable including a Big Village mixtape and
debut solo albums from Tuka (Thundamentals) and Ellesquire (Loose
Change).

The night will be presented by Freshly Squeezed, Newtown’s monthly
dose of quality live hip hop entertainment. Now in its fourth month at the
recently renovated Sandringham Hotel, the night is building a reputation
as a new home for the Sydney hip hop community and has been host to a
slew of exciting NSW and interstate acts and enthusiastic and diverse
crowds.

BUCK 65 Australian Tour 2010

Great news for fans of abstract hip hop.  Buck 65 will be back in Australia this coming September with his unique style of hip hop - baked on the gravel of a dusty highway and washed down with a peyote cocktail.  An expressive live performer who slips between mic duties and turntabalism to create an exciting and energetic show, not to be missed.
