The 24-Hour Art Marathon kicks off tomorrow at The Button Factory! Bring those art supplies you bought six months ago with very good intentions. Or just an idea you want to craft into reality!

We’re painting, scribbling, stitching and seeing what happens when we actually give ourselves time to make stuff. All in good company, well past a sensible bedtime.

He’s most well-known for his contributions to Tangerine Steeze, regularly getting behind the decks at Kiwiburn bringing USBs filled with an array of high energy 4x4 and 2-step bangers, with a sprinkling of tasteful of dubstep, hip-hop and pop influences throughout.
