送出Pitchhunter樂隊香港演出門票!

 

This thumping band is touring Asia and has a one night stopover in Hong Kong on 10th June.  Pitchtuner have been described as Basement Jaxx deconstructed and run through a Japanime film - nice!   We'll be giving away two tickets in our next newsletter on 2nd June!

該勁旅將在亞洲巡迴演出並於6月10日逗留香港一晚Pitchhunte的音樂往往被描述為貫穿於一部日本動畫電影的地下混音作品,其音樂令人感到不可思議及自成一格。

想獲得兩張Pitchhunter演出門票的朋友請留意我們在6月2日的最新通訊!

還沒有摸熟本地樂隊的圈子?

那你大概需要看看我們的 "樂隊指南"了。


Well for nearly seven years, at all our events, we've had reviewers come and watch the bands perform and then write their honest reviews.  Some reviews are better
than others, some longer than others but all honest.

年以來,我們邀請不同的樂評人為在Underground演出的每一隊樂隊撰寫樂評。每位樂評人的觀點都不盡相同,但可以肯定的一點是,他們都盡心為大家帶來最準確、最不偏不倚的評論。

 

Our website has over 325 bands reviewed (and a sprinkling of overseas bands too!)  to share with you.  Many of the bands performing this month are listed in our reviews:
