PLANETNOTION TELEVISION!
CAMERA-FOLK AND FILM EDITORS WANTED!
Planet Notion is looking for guys and dolls to film and edit features for its new TV channel, PNTV. Accompanying Notion to artist interviews, gigs, fashion shows, festivals and international events, you will be skilled, passionate and full of ideas about how to produce shit-hot video content. Camera-folk will be experienced and ideally have their own equipment, or at least access to equipment, while editors must be able to turn projects around quickly, and with stylistic flare. If you can both film and edit content, we would especially like to hear from you! These casual, unpaid positions would be ideal for those looking to develop their showreels, and to get the chance to travel, film major artists and top events.
 
Please email lucy(at)musichqmedia
(dot)com if you’re interested in getting involved, cheers!

Trojan vs Rawfusion
Cargo, London
25 January 2008
 
If you haven't copped a sneak preview of Simbad's soon-to-be-released-in-the-UK-after-much-prevarication 'Supersonic Revelations' you have a treat of the highest order in store. It's an amazing journey to the outer limits of future soul, with all manner of stuttering, syncopated and dub-inflected joy in between. An interesting proposition to juxtapose this man against the mighty Trojan Soundsystem, renowned for its quality reggae output delivered with a veteran swagger.

Simbad, part of Mad Mat's Raw Fusion crew – the label putting out his debut – played a set steeped deep in the spirit of his album, with a bit of madness thrown into the mix. It was in his second set that he really found his groove, throwing in some filthy dub-step and deliciously off-kilter beats.

Interspersed, the Trojan boys did what they do best, digging up the requisite reggae flavour and attitude; but the leap between the two camps felt a little extreme. On their own, it was perfect, but together, it jarred. Collaboration can be a beautiful thing when it works, but when that's not the case, the set-up has the danger of coming across just a little diluted. Words: Helene Dancer
