The history of the Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar Festivals had its early beginnings in 1982. It was grounded in aloha and for the love of the music and man that was synonymous with the music. It was an opportunity to pay tribute to the contributions of a man who contributed so much to the music of Hawaii, and at the same time, continue his legacy and help to perpetuate and preserve a unique Hawaiian acoustic guitar art form known as "Ki-ho'alu".

Imagine the last thing you'd ever expect a badboy producer of rough urban beats to say, and it would probably be: "my favourite key is either A minor or C minor right now." But spend time with 18-year-old west London dubstep producer D1 and that's exactly what you'll hear.

"When the band started, we met at Erika's house with our old Casios. We were just hanging out, drinking tea and trying to figure out old 80s pop songs. Erika had a drum machine, and they are much better keyboard players than I am. They have been playing longer, so they were using both of their hands and couldn't push any of the drum machine buttons. I had wanted to play drums since I was little, and I just saw a role that needed to be filled." - Heather D'Angelo
