Carpe Diem – a phrase commonly used by those of us showing off our limited Latin. But nothing is more true for we only live once. Well, unless, if you’re Buddhist, then you might have many lives till enlightenment. Regardless, we’re thrilled to share our aural and oral pleasure with you this week.

SATURDAY

It’s a wicked Saturday because Wicked Aura is coming OUR way! While Ms Aya takes a little break and we miss her, we are simply getting our hand, feet, body ready to mooooove with this 13 member percussion band who has toured the world! Playing authentic Batucada for the Spaniards in Madrid, the English in London and the Americans in New York City, we’re STOKED to drum along with the boys. 9pm onwards @ Cafe.

Frequencies v1.1 -  conceptual design promotes the advocacy of quality electronic music through a diverse mixture of cyclic signals coming together, bound, woven and stitched through rotation and oscillation. Music catering to the fans, the curious and the newcomers. Old school meets new school without prejudice of historical differences. Digital technology meeting traditional media, creating current trends with rustic sounds fused with classic tracks sounding futuristic made during an enigmatic.

The revolution is on going, a part of us that never left…..10pm onwards @ Lounge
Peace Out, ya’ll
