RRR IS HERE.
Real Rungle Records (colloquially known as RRR) prepares for their takeover of Pōneke, presenting an evening of dance and delirium.
SHOWPONI, IMPRESS, CRADLE and J4KI join together as Queens of Rungle, inviting you into their royal court.
hear ye hear ye,
this very wednesday (day of mercury) a queer haze descends upon the feasting hall valhalla - expect scarlett beet-wix cereal and a mob dressed to impress.
the artists:
the elusive impress will be spouting sounds like every dance music idea someone has witnessed patched & sewn together through whatever means were available at the time
scarlett scraps together sampling, electronic, classical and noise based elements to create existentially desperate and tender songs
beat witch beet-wix as always will conjure charming chiptune chaos on their Nintendo DS, while enchanting the audience with effervescent flute and acrobatic vocals
tickets in bio !! Xxx
and thanks @maevepwr for the beautiful poster !!

AAKI comes from the word manaakitanga: hospitality, kindness and support-the process of showing respect and generosity and care for others.
AAKI brings this core value with them into every environment they enter, and now they’re bringing it to their home town Te Whanganui-a-Tara.
Having lived in Ōtautahi for quite some time they’re excited to translate the swampy, mucky wetlands to te Upoko o te Ika. AAKI will bring a sound that will move your body and wairua.
Mai te awa ki te moana xx

Kaua e wareware! Hot Mooch is on 11 October @valhalla.nz tix at the link in our bio!
Feat @honeykbrown@mrmeatyboy@oil_grace_@impressery 🥵
Next in our 🥵🥵🥵 lineup: DJ Thank U So Much! 💥💥💥
DJ Thank U So Much cut her teeth on 100 birthdays and 100 house parties for 100 people, and is now ready to deftly crawl onto the scene unprepared & hungry for a crowd. Her specialties are weird edits and mangled 21st century classics. Her setup doesn’t make a lot of sense, but the end product does: bouncy, strange, energetic, bittersweet, frothworthy, lesbiotic, maybe more. Dress to dance!! TYSM!!

Remember The EP DJ Thank U So Much? It's Now An Artist. Feel Old Yet?
"Watching Nothing On No Screen With Nobody" is here for my birthday. a year since the last TYSM.
26 was in the top 2 worst years of my life, so of course i made a bunch of edits mashed up into bigger weirder edits like anyone else would do. or something
Dancehall, Trance (No Drums), Jersey Club and Mashups are all ive listened to and sometimes the best tribute is a pale imitation <3
Thank U So Much to Xan / Grizz / Rosa / Rue / Penny / Me / You
it is in the profile Description. Or at Impressed Dot Bandcamp
Book me for your birthday. I have 6 under my belt already.
'LAST NIGHT WAS A MOVIE' mix has it worldwide premiere this Saturday 💀
Two hours of raw bass and breakbeats recorded with the geezers and a couple of turntables in te Whanganui-a-Tara last weekend.
Playing on @radioactive.fm this Saturday 5-7pm on Behaving Strangely, lock it in

impress - IM 1

IM 1 welcomes impress into the world. these are the first tracks ever created by impress that have survived by constant wild evolutions over many years. They were naturally aged & weathered by the following: three laptop migrations, a hard drive corruption, irretrievable projects, preservation in single files, a total change in taste and the continuous gain of new experiences.
Together they sound like every dance music idea someone has witnessed patched & sewn together through whatever means were available at the time. Many places to visit!
When the artist is asked about IM 1, she says something like:
"Finally releasing these songs is not unlike releasing a bird into the wild after nursing it back to health over a month, but you and the bird are kind of sick of each other at this point anyway so it isn't a big deal."
or sometimes,
"These things go way back. Can't really remember what I even did there, I'm sure it'll be out soon? Probably"
and a big thank you to anyone who has heard any of this in its many forms over the past three years. That's what makes it exist!
2019 - 2023, Sam
many sources, mostly samples, reassembled and collated with love
