Our music policy is anything goes - from have-it breaks & house to funk-fuelled bands; from ska, rock and electro to Balkan beats. We love to test the boundaries and if it makes us dance, well have it! (just keep the R&B to yerself - sorry!)
FishSeeksBicycle is an open-minded and downright rude party movement that comes together to host the most exciting and imaginative parties on The South Coast; with unlawfully good bands, performance artists, DJ’s, stalls, sideshows, ridiculous revelry and dress-up debauchery.
We make it happen, be it in a field, a cave, a forest, an opera house, or a club.
We offer the following professional services: Festivals, Music Programming and Technical ; Creative and Décor; Logistics and Event Production; Bars and Staffing; Experiential and
Guerrilla Marketing; Community events and Private Party Planning; Integrated IT solutions for events (ooh la la); and Online Ticketing systems. Phew.
Born in Boscombe June 2001 with the Backyard Band Bash, FSB has since grown to represent what is so good about small independent musical and artistic events: a collective of like minded souls gathered for a common purpose.

Latin Dub Soundystem
Part sound system, part South American orchestra their genre-defying big bass lines and carnival rhythm live sound incorporates Latin percussion, house-driven melodies, dub beats, uplifting vocals, flamenco guitars, Mambo horns and rap.

Planetman and the Internationalz
These guys prove conclusively that pure groove still has a place in the hearts and souls of man. Planet and his band live and breathe for live performance, and their communal spirit echoes throughout their songs – all of which call out in perfect harmony for equality, peace, love and understanding. www.myspace.com/planet7

The Crafty Rascals, The Hair Bears, The Worlds Tallest DJ, Chris Pedley (Baker Brothers) but there are countless fantastic dj’s waiting to be found a slot.

There may also be several additional mixed genre music rooms (TBC)
Save the hill of Tara!
As you read this the sacred valley of Tara in Ireland is under immediate threat from the M3 motorway building plan. All over the world the significance of ancient and sacred sites is disregarded as they are used for nuclear testing (in Australia) or toxic waste dumping (on Native American burial grounds). We believe that the preservation of sacred sites is more important than the gold rush style of ‘development’ practiced by Western governments. Profits from this event will help pay for the costs of keeping the protest site running. www.tarapixie.net www.savetara.com www.tarawatch.org

He’ll also be bringing along HOMmega label mates X-noiZe, Krunch and Delirious, who’ll be joined by the Antiworld residents. With X-noiZe and Krunch launching their new albums ‘Wheel of Misfortune’ and ‘Booster’, this promises to be one of THE psy trance events of 2009.
