Auralism Launch Party

Happy New Year!!

Kicking off the year in style, next Sunday morning, January 20th, starting at times when most folk are not usually conscious or sentient, Auralism is launching itself with an all-day bash @ Cafe Cocomo (No Salsa!). All the usual groovy suspects will be playing or DJing, along with the infamous Dave Aju (Circus Company, Context) and the distinguished Limaçon (Poker Flat, Force Inc.).

From 10-11am on the outside stage, as you eat your grapenuts con leche, Ruoho Ruotsi will be serving a hearty dose of live action, alphatronic dubifications. Look lively!!
