Sisters in Sound will be spinning at the Lava Party, afterparty for Honolulu’s annual Volcano party, on Sunday, April 22nd at Lotus Soundbar. SIS djs Toki and Chia will be spinning smooth grooves for all the beautiful people in town to celebrate at the annual Volcano party. This will be our second visit to Lotus Soundbar, which is located at 2301 Kuhio Ave in Waikiki. Even if you’re not attending the Volcano party, feel free to come by and say hello.

The Volcano Party is Hawaii’s largest gay event. The Lava Party at Lotus will be a benefit for The Gregory House, Hawaii’s statewide AIDS Housing Agency. Visit www.gregoryhouse.org or call 592-9022 for tickets & info.

Check out some pictures of the night.

Missed it? You don’t have to wait until the next Sisters in Sound event to see us. Join Zita and Dmadness at Golden in San Francisco or Ms.Angel at Casa in Honolulu. Sign up for our email list and become our friend on MySpace, and we’ll keep you in the loop.

It’s about time for a Sisters party!

Saturday, February 17th, the Sisters in Sound and ‘ohana will take over Lotus Soundbar. It’s Chinese New Year, and we can think of no better way to bring luck and prosperity in 2007 than with female djs, hot tunes, and several hundred of our closest friends. Can you?

All the way from San Francisco, DJ Zita will be returning! And with her, she’s bringing her partner on the decks, Dmadness. Together Zita and Dmadness hold down U.N.I.T.Y. every second Friday at Duplex in San Francisco. Their unique blend of “soul, funk, disco, electro, afrobeat, soulful house, roots&culture, dancehall, and classic jams from past and future eras” will be sure to keep the heads bobbin’ and booties shakin’! And you know SIS is all about the booty shakin…

Our brothers on the decks, DJ K-ing (Freeform Sound Collective, Lotus Soundbar), Monkey (Electrolyfe), and Seeko (Direct Descendants, W) will be on hand to bring some funk and flavor of their own. It’s been too long since Seeko has played at an SIS party and we’re very excited to have him back.

We’re also very excited about the venue for this party. Lotus Soundbar is a brand new space which opened in December. Thanks to the musical guidance of Ramyt and Paul Shih, it’s shaping up to be the most exciting new spot for solid music in Waikiki. With three rooms of rhythm and a great bar staff, Lotus also has three floors of space to dance, meet new friends, and catch up with old ones. This space definitely has that “it” factor. If you haven’t seen it yet, the SIS party could be the excuse you’ve been waiting for!

For more info or to find out how to get on the guestlist, drop us an email. If you haven’t already, subscribe to our mailing list for updates on this and other SIS events. We’d love to keep in touch with you.

Much Love,
SIS

The So Very Show 10-19-06 w/mix by ms.angel and toki

Sisters In Sound members Toki and Ms.Angel will be featured on The So Very Show tonight!

Toki is one of Hawaii’s best known female djs – throwing down sick dnb and breaks sets every week in clubs around Honolulu. Ms.Angel hosts The So Very Show, and holds down a residency at Casa every Sunday. Both are part of Hawaii’s first female DJ crew, Sisters in Sound.

Last fall, they took a trip together to San Francisco:

And they discovered something – they had some of the same records! They liked some of the same bands!

Upon further investigation, we found that Toki and Ms.Angel – together, make one mean dj team. But find out for yourself. Tune in tonight at 9pm Hawaii Time for The So Very Show.
