Cairns Winter Solstice Festival 2010

March 11th, 2010 by CraigOS

Cairns Winter Solstice Celebration & Sustainable Lifestyle Gathering

In the expanse of the Australian outdoor festival culture, Winter Solstice Lifestyle Gathering holds a special place in the hearts and minds of punters from not only Cairns, but from around the country and indeed the globe as well. The annual event, in its fourth year in 2009, was one of the region’s biggest and most creative festivals, attracting well over a hundred acts, performers, healers and artists over four days and three nights in the rugged beauty of the Atherton Tablelands.

The thing about Winter Solstice is that it’s much more than a Far North Queensland event, instead being one of Australia’s premier alternative life style festivals with a strong focus on entertainment for all the ages and a holistic festival experience. Thousands of punters have been known to travel from interstate and overseas just to attend, proving it’s not only one of the region’s top music and arts events, but a global tourism drawcard as well.
With a broad range of musical styles – from electronic music to live bands and solo acts – as well as roving performers, fire shows, healing areas, sustainability exhibitions and market stalls, Winter Solstice definitely deserves its spot as the winner of the Best Festival in the timeOUT Awards 2009.

New Music concept - Guvera

March 1st, 2010 by 'little rascal'

Guvera logo

Guvera has spent several years negotiating rights all around the world and designing this new system to make music free by having advertisers pay for our downloads.

As an added bonus we have removed the very concept of “Disruptive Advertising” and replaced it with “Engagement Advertising”.
What that means to you and me is we have removed the white noise of irrelevant crap being thrown at us - and now we only see brands that are actually speaking to us, as opposed to everyone seeing everything.

You’ll see when you experience Guvera - You select the brand that will pay for each piece of music you search for, then you visit their channel and discover a whole bunch of other music that may be interesting… then you channel hop, this is how you discover new music, all the while not being interrupted by ads you cant click past and now, you simply enjoy the music.

Best yet, those artists that create all these goodies we download will be paid in full for the inspiration they make for all of us.

And if thats not cool enough, film & TV isn’t too far behind.
