DJ Sir-vere + MC (tbc)
There are few that work as hard and are involved with so many different facets of Hip Hop than Dj Sir-Vere. Sir- Vere is a Dj, Producer, Radio Show host, TV host, and the man behind the Major Flavours platinum selling series. There are few in the world that know more about Hip Hop than Sir-Vere, let his knowledge reach you from the turntables of Fu….

Fast Crew and DJ Alias:
Fresh from their explosive performance at the Big Day Out, come check out the diversity and talent of this local Hip Hop crew. Those that have witnessed and heard the sound of ‘The Fast Crew’ know that they are going places. After gaining lots of airplay for their first single and video 'Mr Radio', the Fast Crew look forward to a big year in 2003.

DJCXL and Phatmospheric:
If you don't already know them, you should! As a turntablist, DJCXL's achievements speak for themselves: 1st in both the 2001/2002 Regional ITF Championships, winner of the 2001 Scratch Championship and placing 2nd in the 2002 DMC finals . DJCXL is also part the Ill Semantics, who have just released their first album through Dawn Raid Entertainment. Playing back 2 back with DJCXL will be local hip hop veteran, Phatmospheric. Some of you will remember him from as far back as 'Realness' at the Box, others will know him as the man behind the decks and on the mic with Che Fu and the Krates. Come witness two of New Zealand's finest turntablists as they cut up the floor at Fu!
