Everyone here says keep warm and get excited because we are announcing the bands for ONEFEST 2006. Like right now!! Drum roll please…

ROUNDED OFF WITH
A Record Fair! Radio One 91FM is holding its very first Record Fair at the Main Common Room, University of Otago on Saturday 29th July. It is going to be rad and you can buy loads of goodies for yourself. Heck if you are a geek you could get all your Christmas shopping done. Email promotions@r1.co.nz if ya wanna stall.

DAY TO MARKET
Buy treats for yourself ‘cos Radio One Market Day is coming up on July 12th. And Lawrence Arabia is coming down from the big smoke to play at it.

WAKING UP IN THE MORNING IS A BRAND NEW EXPERIENCE
Emma is off for a much-deserved break with a bag full of organic veges and a swag of texts books to wade through. No need to panic however as Handsome Hayden and Aaron are taking over the drivers seat for a week. Good times.

ONECARDS ARE WONDERFUL

FEATURE CD – ALPHARHYTHM
This week we have a pearler. Ten years in the making, 'Sentient Beings' is the debut Long-Player from Otepoti's own Alpharhythm. Micro-house, deep dub trenches and expansive broken beat collide in a wash of beautiful clectronica. Brace yourself, because this one-inch-punch of an album is here for your soul. We will be giving away copies of the album all next week on Drive and Breakfast.

DPAG LATE BREAKFAST
It's never too early for a few gin and tonics and some smooth lounge on a Saturday; pull out that old set of pearls and catch up with Paul K Hoskin from Twinset, as they launch their sixth studio album 'Flavour Country'. Justin Paton has recovered enough to drop in for a chat about his acclaimed book 'How To Look At A Painting', and Carl A Mears kicks us off with his special blend of cultural vitriol. Yum.

WIN WITH YOUR ONECARD
This week you could score yourself: tickets to Cornerstone Roots gig at Arc; Mates of State ‘Bring It Back’ CDs; Calexico ‘Garden Ruin’CDs; Salmonella Dub ‘Remixes and Radio Cuts’ CDs plus some Pavement Magazines.

WE LIKE DISCOUNTS
Next Thursday dDub are in town. They are playing at Arc Café and it’s only $11 with your 2006 Onecard. Sweeeet deal.

Some helpful advice from everyone at Radio One –Staying warm is easy when you are in a warm place.
