48 HOURS

48Hours is officially NZ's largest film competition. Teams have just 48 hours to create an entire short film from scratch - this means writing, shooting and editing - or die trying. And if that wasn't tough enough, teams don't even know what genre their film project will be until the clock has started ticking.

A sublime album of contemporary pop.

SKALLANDER: THE CAMELS

Also, we are pleased to announce the first LOOP artist album of 2005: "The Camels" by Skallander. The album is a co-release of Involve and LOOP Recordings. Skallander is the earthy name for the aetheric collaboration between Matthew Mitchell (ex-Wellington jazz scene, lately Hungarian media mogul) and Bevan Smith (of Aspen, Signer, Marineville fame).

In stores on May 17

"Wellington duo Skallander deliver up a drifting dream of a record with The Camels. Sparse yet heavy bass lines, distant guitar drones, suspended strums, meticulous Mac-glitches and murmured vocals - it's spacious, sad, richly detailed and disconcertingly lovely. Repeated listening reveals mysterious things lurking beneath the shiny surface of a sound that's as deep and dark as a midnight swim in the Pacific. The best record to date from the LOOP label." Grant Smithies (Sunday Star Times)
