About Me

Foreshadows Productions was started in 2006 by a group of 4 people with one vision: to put on some rockin' parties! In 2006 we managed to establish a monthly club night at Metro City and pull off a very sucessful tour of the south west of Western Australia.
Now, in 2007, we've moved our successful clubnight, One A.M. to a new venue, Heat Nightclub in Highgate, Perth. One A.M. features local artists of varying genres. When we talk about artists, we dont just mean DJs and MCs, as our resident van gough, The Artful G will tell you.

Who we are:
Oliver Paxman, Josh Gilmour aka Abstract, Jess Mills aka EVE and Mortal Realistiks(Jon Ngu aka Fine China and Nick Rosson aka Mortal Flow)
Our Vision:
The Perth community becoming inspired to connect with their own creativity through experiencing the expression of others. Our events becoming that source of inspiration through producing a unique experience for those attending.
Our Mission:
To share and be passionate about our music and design with the Perth artistic community via our events and other promotional activities. To innovate avenues for the fostering,promotion, growth and developement of local talent.
To structure ourselves according to our own ideas and ideals,as opposed to being limited by the current boundaries and expectations of the musical,artistic and small business industries.
A review of One A.M. by LLSparks from www.inthemix.com.au:
The success of the second party is really the stick by which to measure a new club night. Friends don’t feel the same obligation to turn up and it’s no longer the new night on the scene. Luckily for the Foreshadows crew, the triumph that was One AM round one meant word was out and on Friday night the Platinum Bar at Metros was filling up well before the one am start time.
New girl on the scene Mono Lisa stepped up and started the night out, holding her composure well while a few kinks with the sound system were ironed out. The beauty of a party kicking off at one am is the crowd is already amped up, most people having been out for drinks earlier. Mono Lisa was able to shy away from a traditional warm up set and got the bodies on the dance floor with a mix of new tunes and a few classics. Beatboxing by Dlux was amazing and a few times I had to look over, so sure it was the DJ scratching and not him.
Karlsav took over and always eager to showcase what he has been working on in the studio played his as yet unsigned tune, Tumble Down, to an appreciative crowd. He stepped up the pace with some bassline breaks – this seemed to scare off a few punters from the dance floor (although it was the highlight of the night for this reviewer). A familiar remix of Prodigy’s Spitfire got the dance floor heaving again and that’s how it stayed, the crowd needing to keep warm on the dance floor as the draught from the balcony made the inside of the bar quite cold! Micah provided some quality tuneage, funking things up a bit and accompanied by the gorgeous Carmen Jones and her equally gorgeous voice.
Finally four thirty am came around and the ones the crowd had been waiting for, Mortal Realistiks (Fine China and MC Mortal Flow) stepped up to the mic and the wheels of steel. Quickly the dance floor flooded and the crowd cheered out Micah and Carmen and welcomed the boys with chorus of “woooos”. Straight in to a darker party style and just what the crowd was after, you could see lots of approving nodding and grinning – even from the wallflowers! These guys kept it going, cutting and scratching and although the crowd thinned a bit, there was still a solid presence on the dance floor til very early hours.
The Foreshadows crew hit the nail on the head with One AM for the second time running, establishing themselves a little further in the scene with quality music, friendly faces and cheap drinks – don’t miss the next one!
