For those of you that made it down to the Aftershock album launch, you were amongst the many that helped deflower the new Promotions collective known as Kharma Records. Of course I mean that figuratively. Kharma Records is fronted by Scott “Ranga” Howie (The Ginger Muscle), Wolverine (The Mouth) and DJ SteveeC (The Tricky Fingers). These guys are old hats in the hip hop scene, but new comers to the wacky world of Events Promotion. If you were impressed with the show put on by Aftershock and the many supporting acts, then direct your applause at the hardworking gentlemen behind the scenes, who helped bring you local cats an all-ages hip hop event that no doubt proved memorable to all in attendance. Cast your eyes downward for my interview with the towering young ginger kid we all know and love, Mr. Ranga Howie.
Tell me, exactly who is Kharma Records?
Kharma Records was created in 2010 by Wolverine, Ranga and Stevee C as one of Perth’s new record labels and Promotion Company’s. We will be putting on live shows and helping artists to achieve their goals of getting their music out there. For any info drop any of us a message.
To reiterate, what events have you hosted?
To date all we have hosted is the Aftershock “So This Is Vandalism” Launch which was extremely successful with over 200 people coming through the doors on the night. The event was held at the Kingsway Football Club and because of the success of the event we have been asked to do a quarterly gig there.
What events are you currently working on?
Right now, I’m as flat out as a lizard to water. Am Working on Surreal and Torcha‘s dual Launch on the 18th of September. Intelekts “Greatest EP Ever” launch, Down South Crew’s “The New E.R.A” LP launch, my own launch “The Real Ranga Prime Minister” EP and the Bush Poetics mix tape dual launch. Plus Aftershocks latest release “Creating Silence” which will be a WA tour.
Are you just working with Australian artists?
For the time being yes, but I am very keen on getting a few cats in from over the Atlantic.
How can we contact you for more information?
