Vote for your favourite for the People’s Choice award at 95bfm.com ISSN 1172-675X Shit Worth Knowing R.I.P. AJAX Australian dance music artist DJ Ajax has been killed in a car accident in Melbourne. The indie/electro DJ was known as a founder of Bang Gang DJ’s and was owner of Sweat It Out Music (Home to Yolanda Be Cool & Parachute Youth). Dance music magazine Mixmag said Ajax, real name Adrian Thomas, was “known for a love of quick mixing and explosive tunes,” and “picked up a number of DJ awards early on in his career.” He had been voted one of Australia’s top five DJ every year since 2005. He died after being struck by a car in Melbourne on Thu 28 Feb. CRASH! BANG! PUNK! It doesn’t take much to excite every dance music fan in the entire universe when it comes to Daft Punk, subtly was the key when they simply updated their website and social media for the first time in a year with one lone image – The Daft Punk helmet with the record label logo for Columbia hinting towards a new album. Daft Punk then treated Saturday Night Live viewers to 15 seconds of new music by way of a mysterious trailer. Adding fuel to the rumors of a forthcoming album. Producer and guitarist Nile Rodgers had revealed that he was working with the French electronic duo back in August, and hinted in January that the new material would be coming out soon. HOT RIGHT NOW DJ Fresh and Rita Ora have announced a one-off NZ show at The Powerstation. Show day is in less than two weeks and they’ve pegged the ticket price to just $49 and ensured tickets are available for all-ages, with a fully licensed bar for the over 18s. DJ Fresh is credited as one of the founding fathers of drum ‘n’ bass. His live shows and production skills alike continue (since the late 90s) to roll out in authentic fashion. Rita’s debut album, Ora, personally signed by Jay-Z to his Roc Nation label, debuted at Number 1 in UK, and has established Rita as a major player. SEE THEM LIVE: DJ FRESH & RITA ORA THU 14 MAR THE POWERSTATION, AUCKLAND TICKETS ON SALE NOW TICKETMASTER.CO.NZ THE RACE TO SPACE Vodafone confirmed last week and announced the launch of its 4G network. 4G will carry mobile Internet data 10 times faster than 3G. The service is live for just under a third of Auckland and Vodafone plans to offer 4G mobile Internet to 15 cities and towns by the end of this year. About 65,000 Vodafone customers have 4G-capable devices. Telecom launched a 4G trial for 100 customers last month; Vodafone sped past it with a commercial launch last week. Golden Years David Bowie’s much-anticipated new album The Next Day is now available to stream as a worldwide exclusive on the iTunes Store. The album stream will remain available until release day on Fri 08 Mar. The album’s second single, ‘The Stars (Are Out Tonight)’, was also released last week, along with an accompanying short film starring Bowie and Tilda Swinton as a happily married couple. Their world is disturbed and then re-arranged by the intrusion of a celebrity couple played by Andrej Pejic and Saskia De Brauw. The story at once captures a twenty first century moment in its convergence of age, gender and the normal/celebrity divide. ONE WAY STREET Singer from The Temptations Richard Street passed away early last Wednesday morning from a pulmonary embolism in a Las Vegas hospital. Richard officially joined The Temptations in 1971 and stayed with the band for over 20 years. Richard’s death follows the passing of Damon Harris, also a singer in The Temptations on Mon 18 Feb. Both singers joined The Temptations at the same time with Harris leaving just four years later. TAITE MUSIC PRIZE The finalists for the Taite Music Prize 2013 have now been confirmed.
