GOOD RIDDANCE JOHN HOWARD
Howard gone... more of the same to follow...
So finally we get rid of John Howard. The Australian political landscape has been changed for the worse after years of strong conservative government. Finally the people have decided to switch to the other side for a few years so labour boy kevin rudd and his cronies get to change a few minor policies..bleat on about howards legacy and see how long they can go before sucking up to the American war mongers.
left right left right left right..same old bollox different year...call me a cynic but ive seen it all before and it isnt what i want in my life running my country. I voted for the first time in my life this year to get rid of Howard..only to see the other nerds get in..and where are the greens and the democrats in all this mayhem... fukin nowhere. Its the system that is fukked not the people...
I believe people can come good but they need a different set of standards from which to work within. Change the system give people a fresh new outlook on how we can behave and im convinced as a community that things can be better and more equitable for all....what is there but hope and activism........ if you dont dream then you get reality and a lot of that shit is filthy... think
act
love
peace

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOSE
Recently we turned one year old and even though we are still a young label..it seems like a fukkin eternity that the message and politic of Dose and like minded krews has been out there trying to make the world a nicer and fairer place to live in.
We have recently played and partied hard at gigs at Exodus festival the norther hotel in Byron and took part in a free new years eve party close to tyagarah beach, which was flooded and waterlogged but oh so much fun was had..those paid parties may make a little money for all involved but what they miss out on in energy and autonomy is huge...give me a well planned fuck off free beach or bush party over some orchestrated legal doof' anyday.
Dose is also looking for new artist contributions on the music side of things. So if you want to get a page up at doseshop.com or just want to check out what we do drop us a line and say hi....
Splendour gets rocked by huge dose of local music
Well what a gig we all just did at splendour.The festival had no rain for the first time in years. Instead sunny weather greeted the 17000 revellers from all across the country who were charging to see some of the worlds best live bands and dj's.
Fatty vs Mo played late on the sat night and and what a gig it was. The tipi circle was jam packed with punters wanting to wiggle their arses to the best of North Coast electronica. With Mo wibble mixing up the choons and Fatty mc'ing the whole place was soon jumping up and down in synchronised harmony to the sounds of Home invasion vol1 and all of the new releases that Dose has recently released.
There was a moment halfway through the set when the stage buckled under the weight of about 20 local mullumbimby homeboys all wanting to join in the fun with fattys mad antics... the organisers had to keep throwing them off.. but they just kept on coming right back...It was fantastic. Lets hope for some more nights like this soon.
Byron bays very own electronic dance label Dose recordings are happy to announce their inclusion in this years splendour in the grass festival taking place on the 4th and 5th of August.

JUNE2007.. Greetings earthlings and beyond.Its that time again when the track rotation gets twisted and morphed into something else.

We also have trax by Jackie Onassid and big phat electro house choons from SnM productions. These guys are ripping up just about every dance floor they get to play on in recent months. The album is up on the site and its a corker.

Dose Shop
Set up this year to promote and sell independent electronic Australian music Dose is hopeful that its invigorating styles and genres of music will add much delight to many record collections around the globe. Many of the artists on board at Dose have only just begun to release their music to the world and we feel this is a very exciting and groundbreaking time for many of our friends and networking colleagues.
Whatever the reasons behind it, the krew at Dose realized a lot of great music was simply being overlooked. Our long term aim is to spread right around the country offering a digital download portal in which an exotic array of ozzy beats can be both listened to and purchased.
So... all you Aussie producers and studio geeks get your trax up to a good production quality and send them this way to Dose. We are an independent label who are open and embracing all genres of electronic music. Drop us a line and we will send you the requirements to get your music up and selling on the site. Well, what are ya waiting for?
Dose recordings was set up by kol dimond who has his roots firmly set in the Australian underground music networks. Previous collectives Organarchy Sound systems and Circus Vibe Tribe have both been instrumental in networking political activists around the country and beyond whilst the musical influences have been attached to most styles which challege the mundane and static world we refer to as the music industry
Based in Byron Bay which is the most easterly point of Australia and a major party destination for tourists, the things which make this part of the world unique we hope, will manifest itself into the pages of our web site.

Above purely for your credit cards aesthetic and urgent need to be pro active we present the labels first two hard copy album releases. They can be purchased over at the shop, along with many other fine choons. Below are a few piccies of some of our artists. Feel free to print these out and throw darts at them or simply look at them long enough until an awkward looking person walks through your front door and runs off with your sound system.

WHAT THE......
This may look like harmless fun boys and girls but if you really new what schmedia had really been up to half an hour before these promo shots for his myspace page then you would begin to question the very essence of human kindness and maybe even give up on life altogether. Schmedia informs us it was all just a bit of fun in the kitchen.... but we somehow believe there is more to this story. Any ideas on getting to the bottom of this mystery can write to us here at Dose and the best two replies before the end of the month will get a 5track schmedia sampler which otherwise can only be bought over at the dose shop...so what are ya waiting for. The best caption wins. All entries must be emailed to us by end of june.

Brown acidz in his audio mutation parlour. When hes not in his room cranking the fuck out of mental loops and twisted jazz beatz jesse says he likes nothing more than sitting in some one elses studio cranking the fuck out of mental loops and twisted jazz beats. I like his style.

Randolf from Kolliope obviously beginning to melt in between tracks of angelic angel dust disguised as pop music. Or is it simply a badly taken photograph?

SnM... now what does that name conjure up. If ya thinking along the lines of dirty white euro trash phat electro house beatz then your completely wrong ..coz these guys are from a land down under playing white euro trash phat electro house beatz.

Now if ya ask some they reckon the best thing about Dose recordings first compilation is how good looking and handsome we made all the artists look. Others reckon that doing the launch of 'Home Invasion' on Invasion day (or Australia day) as some still call it was a great piece of tongue in cheek marketing. Me, personally i reckon the music cuts through all the other hype. Brand new Byron bay beat music at its best.

What a crap name? I hear you all shouting. Ok i will give ya that one. But and thats a big but , if you like ya beats to have a political bent and still manage to steer ya arse over to the dance floor then this is the shit for you. Juicy with a do it yourself flavour.

Animation never looked so good. Our very own local tekno diva Jackie Onassid with a recent happy snap of herself after an incredible acid party in the hills where the trees have names and the grass literally rolls itself into odd looking cigarette type things which actually taste quite nice.
