It's all happening. Goldfish have finally released their new CD. It's a 2 disc pack, with a CD and a DVD. So not only can you bob your head to the smooooth sounds of Goldfish, but you watch them at the same time. It's crazy around here! Keep reading and we'll probably give you one of the free albums that we managed to get our hands on.

So there you have it. Now if you want to WIN A FREE COPY OF THE NEW GOLDFISH ALBUM, we'll be sending free copies to the first ten people who email us (editor@2oceansvibe.com) and tell us what the name of the new Goldfish album is. Use the subject "Goldfish Competition".

Finally Nemo was taken seriously as a recording artist
Here is some info we extracted from the press release:
With the launch of GOLDFISH’s new CD, Caught in the loop,(That first sentence probably contains important info for the competition) it’s time that South Africa discovered what music industry players internationally have known for some time…. that there’s an exciting new sound on the world dance and groove scene, and it’s coming out of South Africa.
Headed by David Poole and Dominic Peters, GOLDFISH is a breath of fresh air in the South African music scene, and in two short years this duo have indelibly stamped their mark on electronic music world-wide, with tracks already appearing on compilations in Europe, Australia, and Asia. Their single, “Dream” has already appeared on Palace lounge presents Cafe d Afrique II, The Clio Va Va Voom Edition (track 1), as well as on Breathe Sunshine vol.2 - track 4 (voted 4th best compilation by UK music festival and website - The Big Chill).
When performing live, they’re DJ’s so to speak, but there’s no predestined CD or Vinyl involved. All the musical elements are created live. Anything can happen, and often does, allowing the musicians to bring in the fluidity and spontaneity of Jazz and combine it with anything from dance to chill out.
The album is a double-disc release consisting of a CD, as well as a DVD, which features a documentary\interview, and VJ set by the legendary group Iaminawe - mixing videos of Goldfish’s live performance and animation to the sounds of the album.
The album is a continuation of tracks that have developed live and in the studio in the past two years, combining influences from jazz, dance, African music and downtempo, into a unique, truly African sound, and features a wide variety of different guest artists from South Africa and Dominic’s place of birth, Zimbabwe.
We cannot comment whether or not Rob Mugabe is a fan of the group.
