Cluster Collective and Uber_Lingua present LINGO (charged & dubbed) Over two nights: FRIDAY 17th and SATURDAY 18th September Legendary Hobart crew the Cluster Collective, charged on diversity jump into bed (metaphorically) with the Uber_Lingua crew to create one of the most modern trans-cultural events to hit Tassie in a while... Cluster are well known for their gigs that unify the various splinters of the small but strong Hobart music scene. Cluster events have been known to feature Punk Rock next to Electronic, Reggae, Hip-Hop and exotic Visuals... Representing Cluster on the lineup is Gusto, an electronic music producer who's also into Japanese mash-ups... Uber_Lingua in an emerging entity that currently hosts a weekly club in the inner city of Melbourne focussing on multi-lingual music and urban culture from all over the world... "...there is so much Hip Hop, electronic music and progressive folk and pop round now days in other languages, it seemed obvious to tap it's potential and have some fun with it..." to quote bP (Brendan Palmer) one of the resident DJs. Another uber-linguist is based in Tassie; Moses 'sakamoiz' Iten... An expert on all things Swiss, Mexican, Spanish speaking and German. MashyP, a long time musical provocateur in the Sydney electronic music scene and promoter of some of the most explosive underground events in Sydney in the past decade, has taken a turn towards the bootleg mashup scene and recently toured Qatar (near Saudi Arabia) getting a solid dose of Arabic culture that, sure enough, filtered through into his music. Direct from Sierra Leone, Alfred 'Creator' Caulker is a Hobart-based bodybuilding rapper and performs in Mende, Creole, French and English. " I start my singing career way back in Sierra Leone, in a district called Bonthe... My sister used to say "if you want to take my food, you should sing for me..." I believe that's the way my mouth's become so good on the mic..." Fulfilling the lineup are Nitriya (Indian Rhythms/Hobart), DJ Squimal (Mexico), Joseph Barrows (Hobart VJ), Zin (Myanmar), misty pocket (Hobart), terraphonics (installations) Friday's event will feature a far more pumped selection of tracks... those wanting to dance or at least be spun out should check it out... Saturday takes on a more café-bar chilled atmosphere, with lots more room for slower paced tracks, dubbed out-ness and exotica. "The whole of Tassie wants a lesson in DUB..." according to Cluster DJ Gusto. full details at http://www.uberlingua.com Demos of all sorts can be posted to Uber_Lingua PO Box 2613 Fitzroy 3065 Australia LINGO events sponsored by Hobart's edgeradio99.3FM http://www.edgeradio.org.au --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
