A must see for clubbers!

The regional finals of Thirst 2005 will be a must see for clubbers keen to find out who is NZ's freshest DJ / producer talent with the Christchurch regional final kicking off at Mansion on Friday April 15th.

The finalists are Ryan Beehre, Damien Bimler, Julian van Uden, Gareth Fletcher, Tristan Roake, Eneti Waretini, and Hideto Kobayashi who will perform a 15 minute set where they will play their original track and local legends Partido (Kurt Dyer), Spooky (Luke Thompson) and G-Muva will also perform.

The four successful finalists will then compete at the national finals on April 22nd and the winner will share the stage with superstar DJ's Roger Sanchez and Erick Morillo who are headlining the event.

The winner not only claims $5,000 studio time or equipment and guest DJs at Thirst Australia, but will also represent New Zealand at the Asia Pacific Thirst Regional Finals. From here, if successful, they can make it to the World Thirst finals, where DJs vie for the ultimate prize: a one year contract with Thirst and to go on a global tour.

Heineken Music hopes to 'meet you there' with tickets available on the door.
