28th June – 3rd July

June 28, 2010

This cup is full of surprises and it’s kinda sad that we’re waving off S Korea…. the group of nice(looking) young lads….. However, there are more exciting matches and we continue screening these battles in full volume: Netherlands vs Slovakia tonight and Spain vs Portugal tomorrow.

For those who are completely oblivious to the ball fever, join Grooveworks @ Cafe on Tuesday from 9pm for an aural delight and once more on Wed @ Cafe from 9pm onwards for Grooveworks II – same heart, different sound. Boogey on up to Lounge for some sounds from a different tropical island. DJ Divine does Reggae on Wednesdays

And we will be laughing out loud or cringing in silent with Open Mic Night. 8pm onwards @ Lounge this THURSDAY - be it talented spiel or a heartfelt attempt, we’re all friends and in for a good time. SGD 10 for cover. If the gift of gab is not bestowed unto you, perhaps the feet would prefer to do the talking. Do join us for SWING FLING - the lindy hopper’s dream – great music and talented dancers. It’s not a show but  an opportunity for you to try or just enjoy the vibe! 8pm @ Cafe

It’s smokey passion and haunting melodies – Grey Lyons’ Quartet brings some jazz to the house. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe on FRIDAY. But for those how are feeling more sprightly and wanna ‘get down with it’, Good Times throw on their most fabulous, awesome, kick-a$$ party @ Lounge. 9:30pm onwards – as always

And if you’re missing our beloved crazy chick, right as rain she appears to you all with magic fingers and an even more magical spell of great music. Presenting Ayaschool….. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe on SATURDAY

Peace Out

21st June – 26th June

June 21, 2010

An unpredictable wind is blowing – the flood downtown resulting in a temporary (muddy) river down Orchard Road, France lost both games and Italy didn’t come up on top…. but luckily things pass and all can be settled and right again…

It’s still all groovy with us and we’re bringing you live music – brilliantly played as always – Grooveworks takes stage @ Cafe for both TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY from 9pm onwards. And if you’re seeking to march to a different beat, scamper on up to Lounge for some REGGAE with DJ Divine on Wed from 9pm.

It is the last Friday of the month and Pushin’On is going to blow us away with their funky sounds. 9:30pm onwards @ Lounge. While the beat is a thumpin’ upstairs, the mood is snazzy cool with Muhd Noor and gang, giving us inspiration for moves. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe.

And if Friday was just a mere taster, you can join Ayaschool on Saturday for some kick ass Jazz sessions. Guaranteed a bitin’ good time. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe

Peace Out, yo.

It has been a looonnnggg weekend for those World Cup fans and I’m sure the midnight oil keep on a burning and if you feel like catching some atmosphere along with the match, come on up to SPACE for viewings, complete with a beverage variety – served with a smile. And for those who aren’t into 22 men chasing after one ball, come on down anyway for a lovely cuppa or two @ Cafe or Lounge.

And those ultra enthusiastic AND talented (didn’t think we’ll fob off bad music to you, would you?!) musicians are back on Tuesday with Grooveworks kicking some jazz your way. 9pm onwards @ Cafe

And if you didn’t get enough of that sweet taste, Grooveworks II (TWO for those who don’t do Roman numerals) plays on from 9pm @ Cafe on Wednesday. But if you feel a different sort of groove stealin’ over that body of yours, DJ Divine has the right fix for you with some cool Reggae to set the mid-week chilled mood. 9pm onwards @ Lounge. And if it’s some intellectual stimuli you’re craving for, Blink Bl_nk has the answer for you. Join them for edification, conversation and libation with topics on Barefoot Running, How to Flirt for Fun and Profit and Elevating the Debate on Queer Issues in Singapore: What Can Be Done.  7pm onwards @ Space

We’re doing a swap-a-roo with Ayaschool bringing down the house for the start of the weekend. It’s FUNK on Friday with DJ KoFlow, Casey on bass, Noor on drums and Aya on keys. 9:30pm onwards (so good that you might skip the 22 men and 1 ball) But just in case you still can’t let them go – I know – hot stuff right? Serbia vs Germany @ 7:15pm @ Space and US vs Slovenia @ 10pm @ Space.

Fancy more cool jazz to bring up your temperature? Then join Greg Lyon’s crew @ Cafe from 9:30pm onwards on Saturday. And Coup plays electronica for those a dancin’ peeps. From House to Techno to Minimalist, their set eclectic and oh so sweet. 9:30pm onwards @ Lounge. So, party on guys, we’ve already go seats reserved and tables to dance on – what you waiting for?

Peace Out!
