Hello,

The anniversary Sirocco was a success, a select crowd enjoying a very relaxed night at Sound Market, chilling on the couch. It also garnered a review from Des Laughton, chronicler of the Shonan scene, which you can read at http://www.seekjapan.jp/article/2133/The+Road+to+Sirocco.

We'll try to get pictures and one or two of the DJ sets posted soon too.

There'll be a little summer break, so the next Sirocco at Sound Market will be held on Sunday 20th September. However, we'll try and do something at one of the beach bars again this year.

Thanks to all who came down to Sound Market, as ever, it was a friendly, happy crowd that made the night a pleasure. Hope to see you soon.

Anniversary party!

Hello!

We survived a year! The anniversary Sirocco will be held on Sunday 14th June at our new home of Sound Market, from 7:02pm to midnight.





From the south exit of Fujisawa station take the road on the right of the Odakyu Building (`Oaks Mall Road`) and follow it along the Enoden tracks until you come to Times Parking - Sound Market is on the left at the traffic signal, set back a little from the road.

There`ll be Peter and Joseph on decks, joined by special guest DJ Dante (push.. and Organika) ... Hope to see you there to create, and savour, the chilled atmosphere we know and enjoy.

April 19th

Thanks for everyone who came to Sirocco on April 19th. Once again it was a great night with a lot of cool people and some really cool music.

December Sirocco

December's Sirocco at Nesia was a great success. As usual, nice music, nice people, nice atmosphere. Thanks to everyone who came along, hope you enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed doing it.

Unfortunately Peter & Joseph's sets did not record on the night but luckily we caught the problem just before Adrian's great set. It was his last sirocco & anyone wanting to download his set please paste this link into your browser -> http://www.sendspace.com/file/2r64sn

I have also uploaded a similar (but longer & no attempt to link the other sets) set I played earlier in the month. For that paste this link into your browser -> http://www.sendspace.com/file/q6efzh

The next Sirocco will be on 8th February, same place, same time... hope you can make it down.
