WELLINGTON
Plus Plus was well wicked — an abandoned warehouse, 300 teenagers, and some dude running around handing out Thermoblasts. Auckland’s Whinge delivered a stonking live set, Halogen Girl played a set of sparkling electro-tech, with standout efforts also from the Navigator Zero and Tjaden ... Babes in the
Hood presented Lush at ESC, a fully packed fashion and music schmoozle that went on into the wee messy hours ... H3l3 at ESC was presented in true spacey style by the S-ence boys. DJs Cyrus, Zero, OMR and Coda futurised the crowd upstairs, while Mu, Leon, Flic and Vish kept ’em smooth and swinging way down low (good to go) ... meanwhile, congrat’s to the Roots Foundation, who at four years old are the longest running sound system in NZ, and are estimated to have iried over 12,000 people during that time ... the Popscene tour rolls through Tatou October 18, with Auckland DJs Sam Hill, John Taite and Tim Squire playing indie, Brit-pop styles.
