Family's Big B'day bash feat LEE HASLAM

Nino Brown takes over Family's Lounge

Australia's Number One DJ, Nino Brown, is conquering the music world. Widely regarded, and respected as a true master of the turntable, with numerous accolades planted firmly under his belt, this hip-hop star continues to prove that he’s earned his place in the ranks of Australia’s finest DJs and radio personalities. Over the past fifteen years he has entertained the listening masses across four continents, but with special detail at home in Australia. He has a loyal fan base and travels interstate weekly to satisfy the demand. His phenomenal live shows pull in up to 3,000 punters per week.

The national urban community has expressed their respect for Brown by voting him the Best DJ at the 2006 and 2007 Urban Music Awards, as well as nominating him for the Best Radio Show twice, the first time after only four months on air. Brown made Australian Hip-Hop history in 2002, by becoming the first Hip-Hop DJ to sign to a major record label, his achievements impress with his Blazin' series selling in excess of a quarter of a million copies. Blazin 5 soared to number one with platinum success, Blazin 2007 is certified gold, and Blazin 2008 is set to be the biggest yet.

Whether you love him for his performances, DJ skills, radio show, or just appreciate a true master of the turntable, it cannot be denied that Brown is already a legend in the music industry. His professionalism and skill behind the wheels of steel is unmatchable and his diligent and quality work continues to astonish everyone who crosses his path.


Watch him bring his unique sounds and skills to Family's lounge party Friday 14th August

Ministry Trance Nation - with our Tydi!

While other genres may come and go trance will always be around - it's a stayer, a movement, an integral part of the electronic music scene. There's something dreamy and intense about trance - the melodies, the aural landscapes - that capture the imagination in a completely unique way. Thus, the Trance Nation release is one that MoS hopes excites you as much as it excites us.

2008/09 has been a massive year for Tydi, it would seem the world loves him almost as much as we do! In addition to being named #1 in Australia in 2008 by the ITM Top 50 poll, a stellar performance at Melbourne's Sensation, a mainstage set at Holland's Trance Energy and a solo album release 'Look Closer' with its first single 'Foolish' getting massive airplay across the country. The sky is the absolute limit for our Tydi as he releases MoS Trance Nation across the country.
