Low Rollers - Charity Event Feat. Futurebound.
The Mashup Mafia, The Carpark Bar & Orcon Proudly
Present:
The Low Rollers Annual Christmas Appeal for
the Auckland City Mission featuring:
FUTUREBOUND (UK) - VIPER RECORDINGS
:::Proving Every
Demographic Cares!:::
The Mashup Mafia are proud to
announce that Low Rollers will host it's second annual
Christmas charity appeal for the Auckland City Mission on
Thursday 18th of December at Auckland's leading night life
venue The Carpark Bar. So after the remarkable contribution
put forward by the Auckland drum & bass community last year,
we're back to do it again - except this time, on a much much
much larger scale!!
:::Last year was amazing, how could
you possibly top that lineup?:::
This year we are
working hard alongside key sponsors to bring one of the
biggest names in drum and bass - FUTUREBOUND - direct from
the United Kingdom here to Auckland for one night only!
We're also planning a mind blowing audio-visual experience
like never before, and we've even drawn support acts from
around the country for what we believe is going to be the
biggest feel-good drum and bass event of 2008!
::How
can I help?::
The Christmas period is the busiest
period for the Mission and we believe this year it's going
to be their hardest ever. Thanks to our sponsors we've
covered the cost of Futurebound and whilst he's commanding
$30+bf in other locations around New Zealand, we ask that
you do just two things to get entry on Thursday 18th
December:
1) Make a decent donation/contribution on the night - ideas for these are down below!
2) And tell at least 5 of your friends about the Auckland City Mission, or forward this event/flyer to your friends to spread the word! Everything counts!

Futurebound!:: http://www.myspace.com/futurebound
Brendan
Collins, aka Futurebound, has been pushing drum & bass from
Viper's headquarters in Liverpool now for over five years.
Together with production partner Matrix, the pair produced a
blistering album entitled 'Universal Truth' in 2007 which
brought their sound into the mainstream.
Their unique production style of melodic vocal, cinematic sounding beats were picked up by everyone from the likes of Zane Lowe through to Justin Timberlake, for whom they eventually produced a remix for the track, 'Love Stoned' on Sony/BMG.
Viper Recordings has grown to be a massively respected label with releases from State of Mind, Moving Fusion, The Brookes Brothers, Baron, Shock One and J Majik and Wickaman to name a few. Whether he's destroying venues such as Fabric (London), Womb (Tokyo), or in the studio, you know that you're in for a unique journey transcending the spectrum when it comes to the sound of Futurebound.

===============================================
How
can you help the Auckland City Mission this Christmas?
===============================================
To make Christmas happen for every Auckland child we need the assistance of the Auckland community. The key ways to support the Mission this Christmas are:
::Monetary
Donation
It costs the Mission over $4 million a year
to provide its services to the community. We rely on the
majority of our funding from the Auckland Community. Please
give generously.
::Presents
Donating new,
unwrapped presents for children (under 18 year olds). The
Mission relies on donations to supply the 25,000 Christmas
presents we distribute. All presents are new and are given
to families/community groups unwrapped with a supply of
wrapping paper. Providing the presents unwrapped allows the
parents the joy of wrapping their children's presents
themselves. Our greatest need for presents is for children
over 13 years, as these are the age groups we usually run
short of presents for. Items suitable for older children and
teenagers include books, sports equipment, costume
jewellery, movie tickets, caps, socks, wallets, sunglasses,
toiletry items.
::Items for Hampers
Donating
items to put in our 700 Christmas Hampers. In the two weeks
before Christmas, people receiving food assistance from the
Mission not only receive our standard food parcel; they are
also given a Christmas Hamper. The Hampers enable families
and individuals to celebrate Christmas in their own homes.
Christmas Hampers are also delivered to all our elderly
community.
