Release Notes
Loop Select 006: KONO is a sensory explosion with two CD's and a DVD crammed full of local music, short films, and music videos.
A snap-shot of New Zealand's creative culture when it was released in 2004, KONO features the most soulful tunes and freshest beats compiled on two CDs. With a massive 29 tracks in total, KONO provides a taste of the sheer musical diversity being explored by both established and unsigned artists.
The DVD is also packed with goodies including six music videos produced by Loop over 2004, and also six short films crafted by aspiring film makers, plus a full length music documentary that takes a look behind the scenes of Fly My Pretties.
