CONTEST FOR FREE CDs!!!
===============================================
We've got a couple of great CD giveaways this week.

First off is the new LOOK INSIDE CD by Canadian female singing sensation
Harj Uppal! We'll be debuting about 4-5 tracks from the album at this week's
party and you can preview the CD and see a video at Harj's site here:

http://www.harjuppal.com/

Our second giveaway is the killer compilation BHOOD THE ALBUM VOL. 1 from
Bollyhood Records. Marco has been playing several cuts at Masala Beat Club
over the past several months including RDB & Elephant Man's "Ishq Naag,"
Shakti's "Let's Go," and Sumeet's "Agony (Desi Remix)" so this is one CD you
need to cop! Read more here:

http://www.bollyhoodrecords.com/

The first five people to answer ALL of these questions correctly will not
only win one of these CDs (please state your preference), but will also get
FREE ADMISSION to the party this Friday!

1. Who is Harj Uppal's music producer and what is her record label?
2. Who is the executive producer behind the creation of the BHOOD album?
3. Which bollywood star was recently taken ill with an intestinal ailment,
causing admirers to make 100 mile treks, create sand sculptures, and hold
special prayer sessions in his honor?

Send your answers to djmarco AT solidsoundsystem.com and good luck!

NOTE: Please do not enter the contest unless you can come to the party this
Friday; you will need to come to Talulla's that night in order to claim your
prize.
