HK Music sponsorship of the Music Video Mash Up

hkmusic are now proud sponsors of the Music Video Mash Up (MVMU). This unique event, organised by our good friends at Ground Floor Pictures, matches up local bands & filmmakers at random. The challenge is to work together and make a music video, to one of the band's pre-recorded songs, over the course of a long weekend.

hkmusic will be awarding the best songwriter in the competition a recording package worth over $1000. The official launch will be held in Queen st Mall on the 30th of April. To register or find out more details please visit the official MVMU site at: www.mvmu.com.au
