Soane - Tonganchic

Soane's come a long way since his days as a doorman and then DJ at Club Roma and the Box back in the day. Soane's popularity as a DJ grew rapidly with the Auckland crowd and he eventually decided that standing outside all night telling people that their shoes weren't right wasn't what he wanted to be doing, so he became a full time working DJ. As time passed, both his record collection and his ability to work the crowd developed.

Soane has released several 12" singles for both Shaboom and Paperecordings and has also compiled and mixed three local mix CDs as well as finding the time to grace the decks at all of New Zealand's top clubs and club nights.

In 2002 Soane teamed up with local engineer Luke Toomes and set about recording his debut album, which has like all good things taken a bit longer than expected.

TonganChic the resulting album named after Soane's BFM show is to be unleashed on the New Zealand public February 2004.

This Cd also features some help in the production and vocal department by other New Zealand artists Including: Freestyle, Boh Runga and Anthony Gold
