THE VINYL WORD

By Tom Leeming

Perpetual Motion promoters Chad Ordoyne and Tristan Newman have added a new night to the mix. “I think the scene is about to explode,” says Ordoyne. “Everyone has been holed up over the winter creating new music. We’re quite fortunate, in Taiwan, to have so many talented people all around us.”

They recently launched Perpetual Thursdays at China White, which features free drinks for women until midnight and a different music genre each week. The first was funk, and yesterday’s was rock, played not by DJs, but local musicians Mac Wooley, Nathan Javens, David Vorster and Dan Plimmer.

“I know there are many different genres that I like and don’t always get to enjoy on a Thursday night out with friends,” says Ordoyne. “This way, there will be something for everyone.”

Next week it’s electronica with Fratzuki and Schism.

Perpetual Thursdays at China White, 2F, 97-101, Dunhua S Rd Sec 2, Taipei City (台北市敦化南路二段97-101號2樓). Entry is NT$100 for women and NT$200 for men. Every Thursday from 10pm until 3am. VIEW THIS PAGE
