MEET THE XMASSIVE CREW
Date: Friday 12th December
Venue POW, St Kilda
Known for their high energy shows, TZU fuse live instruments, turntables and a live sampler. MC’s Joelistics and Count Bounce are known for getting the crowd involved, delivering the freshest flows with social conscience and a sense of humour. With the release of their hugely successful third album 'Computer Love' expect an absolutely bouncing live show from the TZU crew that will knock your socks off.

For the first time in almost two years, ARIA award winners Koolism will be venturing out of the studio where they have been recording their new album due for release in 2009. Melbournites will be the first to hear their new material live as well as get down to a few of our well worn favourites.

Young guns Illzilla, fresh from touring on the back of their hot new album Wasteland, will be joining the bash. Known for giving memorable performances, Illzilla will bring with them loads of fun and more good music for the soul than you can poke a holly leaf at

Kiwi Hip Hop, Dub and Breaks legend The Nomad will be injecting his own flavour into the event. Taking the reigns early, The Nomad will warm us up with a set of his down tempo favourites, then at the tail end of the event, serve up a late night mash-up sure to get us all hot and sweaty on the dance floor

Oakley ‘O.G.’ Grenell will be performing as XMASSIVE’S second kiwi representative. O.G.’s career has already seen him touring with likes of Salmonella Dub and opening for Ben Harper. His second solo release ‘Moving On’ is ‘sophisticated Soul and Hip Hop from one of New Zealands’s finest’ - Rolling Stone.

Melatonin will bring to the party a blend of rootsy Dub and rock steady grooves to challenge your mind and move your feet. With an eco-social justice conscience, Melatonin purveys an exciting blend of decadent beats with a point. With new tracks and remixes hitting the airwaves in late 2008, Melatonin will bring a party atmosphere of skanking beats to The Prince to warm up the XMASSIVE party.

For all of the good boys and girls amongst us, the fat man in the red suit is also rumoured to be making an entrance with presents to spread around.

Come shake your booty to a truly XMASSIVE party.
