Arima Borough Day To Be "WETA" In 2011

Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. July 15, 2011---------- There's a buzz around the borough of Arima and environs. Not only is the ground talking about their traditional Borough Day celebrations but once again, with higher expectations, the ground is chatting about, and busily planning for an event carded for August 6 at the Arima Velodrome. 


Trinidad and Tobago's leading urban frequency, Boomchampions 94.1FM has revealed plans to host the second edition of their "WET" fete, this year calling is "WETA"- an acronym for Water Is Everything Again. Last year, thousands gathered at Mario's car park in Arima, anxious to get a glimpse of their favourite radio personalities and local stars- among them Marlon Asher and the High Grade Family, Denise Belfon, The Millionaire Family, Squeezy Rankin, Lawless, Terri Lyons and many others. This year, the cast of entertainers billed to perform at the newly acquired venue, is familiar but added to that will be two of Jamaica's leading female acts, Lady Saw and Pampute. 


Organisers of the Trini "summer" event are saying this one's going to be huge, with 200,000 gallons of water being brought into the Arima stadium to ensure the theme is constant throughout the night! Tickets for WETA went on sale from July 15 at the cost of $100 for a limited time. Persons wishing to get the earlybird tickets were being encouraged to contact 223- BOOM for details.

Corporate T&T Teams Up With Local Production House on Kush Riddim.

Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. July 6, 2011------------- For the first time in the Caribbean, artistes, all singing on one riddim, will team up with a number of product brands on a musical tour.

PengCo Music’s Kush riddim will be released in the weeks ahead and already there’s a penetrating buzz signaling that some very big names in the local reggae fraternity will be a part of the journey. For these artistes a relationship with PengCo music means a full-fledged marketing campaign, complete with music promotion via online social media sites and blog networks in partnership with well-known corporate brands that have committed to stand behind the venture. The production house, which gave the world the Android riddim earlier this year, has worked hard on the Kush, and is guaranteeing that local artistes will have a superb platform on which to dish out their lyrics.

Among the featured artistes carded to release tracks on the Kush riddim are Isasha, Multi-Symptom, Marlon Asher and Orlando Octave. Together with a few other big names and some relatively unknown yet tremendously talented young entertainers, the Kush riddim, according to directors at PengCo Music, will offer quite a few musical anthems going into the second half of the year when it is released around July 28^th.

Recent weeks of sleepless nights have afforded a high level of satisfaction now that the riddim has been completed. PengCo Music has proven to be a frontrunner on Trinidad and Tobago’s production circuit and for that reason many anticipate the tracks that this new riddim will encourage. In March this year, PengCo Music’s Android riddim heard artistes like Buffy, Screws, Squeezy Rankin and King David among others, deliver a barrage of hits that music lovers just couldn’t get enough of. Much the same, the guarantee of a hard-hitting, vibes-induced Kush riddim, will undoubtedly leave tongues talking
