BLACK SUN EMPIRE
Support from:
State of Mind, Truth

Black Sun Empire represent the finest in dark and techy dancefloor drum and bass.
Since bursting onto the scene back in 2000, they’ve continued to develop their own unique style and sound, releasing numerous singles as well as two full-length LPs and establishing themselves as leaders in the field.

With their awesome DJ skills and inspirational productions, Black Sun Empire have reached far beyond their native Holland and toured everywhere including USA, UK, Russia, Australia and New Zealand to name but a few.
Their latest venture is “Shadows of the Empire,” a new label opening around Spring 2009 that sees the crew present their own interpretations of the dubstep sound, in typical BSE fashion.

Rounding out Thursday night’s program is one of New Zealand’s greatest Dubstep exports; Truth, who have been making a huge impact around the world with their heavy bass line rhythms. Encompassing an array of melodies, vocals and spacious beats they will test the force of Lake Wanaka Centre’s sound system.

Gravis Open Session tickets, $35 plus booking fee, are available from Play It Again in Queenstown and Lake Wanaka from the end of June. Both sessions kick off at 8pm. The first 100 people to buy a ticket to both gigs will receive a free ticket to the Burton New Zealand Open Opening party at Skyline Gondola in Queenstown, Monday 10th August featuring Sunshine Soundsystem.

Attracting elite snowboarders from around the world, the Burton New Zealand Open, takes place August 11-15, 2009 at Cardrona Alpine Resort in New Zealand.
