Epic Marble Radio!



Epic Marble Project's new challenge begins in Spring 2010 with the launch of Epic Marble Radio!
Featuring two charming radio personalities, Adi and Kaz, the team has been filming in various locations over the past few weeks to beef-up on the content and load up the video cameras with raw footage.



Simply put, Epic Marble Radio is a new broadcasting program that will focus on the music/arts scene in Vancouver and connect/reconnect the network to expand and revive the community. With the newest event information, band interviews, live reviews, and the unknown, the program will be the music guide of the indies scene.
EMR will be launched globally (with the help of the internet of course) starting on April 27.
New theme tracks have been produced by singer songwriter, misakii, and composer, Dennis Law. Both pieces are written and recorded exclusively for the program.



The EMR Teaser site has opened at http://www.epicmarbleproject.com/EMR.aspx.
Check out the teaser site for info on the next episode (no information will be disclosed for the pilot episode), band info, and bonus content!

On the other hand, the blog staff will upload some backstage photos and happenings outside the frame.
Tune in!

SPARKLE every Saturday

Daizo here.
I've been MIA for a while with the blog so I will write about an event coming up soon co-hosted by Epic Marble Project.
This is EMP's collaboration with True Entertainment Inc. on the event, SPARKLE every Saturday.

Venue: Tunnel Multi-Lounge
622 W.Pender St. Vancouver, BC
Participating Band: In Like Flynn
Time: 9:30PM - 3:00AM
Tickets: Advance $15 / Door




This will be a clubbing event with the addition of an upbeat rock band performance by band, In Like Flynn. We have hosted a show with In Like Flynn previously in our event, Azure Reflections and we are very proud to have them again.
In Like Flynn is a very tight band with very creative and inspirational minds. I love Jeffrey's vocals and the stage presence of all the members.
According to an interview with members, Travis and Jeffrey, they will be revamping another track off the Top 40 charts (this interview will be uploaded soon!). They are a very loving band with the mind of surprising the audience at all times.
This is one show you cannot miss. Join us at Tunnel on May 1!!

It wasn't just any other contests, because proceeds go to World Vision disasters relief fund, and we were given the chance to give what we could do best to make a difference in the world. The show was a great success, and on behalf of LOCUS I thank you DSC for giving us this chance to contribute to the world. Once again congrats to Clara for winning first runner up, Gerald for winning Champion, and our dear Andy for winning "Most Popular Award". All my love to all contestants you guys were all troopers and all of you are number ONE!~

"Zero One Sushi"

Thx to the Olympic, Gigi had found a new favorite place to eat in downtown Vancouver. and the name of that restaurant is ....*drum roll....... "Zero One Sushi"!! I knew about "Zero One Sushi" from facebook, a friend of mine commented on a photo of their "Olympic Chirashi Don" and it got my attention. Durring the Olympic, Gigi traveled around downtown often, and visited "Zero One Sushi" every chance I got. That had added a lot of fun in my Olympic adventure.^^
I highly recommend "Zero One Sushi" to all my friends and blog readers. Check them out at
