SCOOP Run To Care Run To Care is a social movement initiated by SOS Children Villages in order to increase public awareness and concern for local children’s rights through a fundraising marathon. From July 26th through to the 28th, throngs of runners will journey a whopping 150km in support of this noble cause. The ultra-marathon event takes off in Denpasar and shoots all the way to Singaraja at the northern tip of the island before working back down through Pupuan and finishing in Tabanan. Runners will traverse through many of the villages that are going to benefit from the aid and funds raised. Every step, every kilometer will be dedicated to supporting a better life for Indonesian children.

SOS’s New Program

Scholars of Sustenance, a Food Rescue Charity, recently participated in the newly launched brand program, Westin Meetings at The Westin Resort Nusa Dua. The launch focuses on sustainable meetings and a session was held for associates to learn about the resort’s food waste program in cooperation with SOS. This included a team building exercise, Sandwich Making Competition, which was judged based on team work, presentation and taste. All sandwiches were then generously donated to SOS to be distributed to people in need around the island. The Westin Resort has partnered with SOS to reduce landfill waste and help feed the underprivileged people of Bali. If you are a hotel/retailer, please consider joining SOS to make Bali a greener and better place! www.thebeatbali.com

Kate Wood equals Eco-Wood A new eco-friendly and environmentallysound brand, Kate Wood opened the doors of its first store in Indonesia last month in Berawa, Canggu. Out of their very cozy and organic-styled outlet they are selling all kinds of fascinating items made predominantly from bamboo and re-cycled materials. The Beat spoke with co-founder and partner in Kate Wood, Russian born, Dina Daly about the enterprise. Kate Wood Originals, named after founder Pim Gietelink’s daughter, was first created out of a desire to build a legacy he could pass on to future generations. Born in Amsterdam in 2012 first with wooden sunglasses and watches, Kate Wood Originals has become a socially

conscious business that believes there is still great value in carefully handcrafted goods made from renewable resources. Dina Daly told The Beat that the company first chose to work with bamboo and wood, because they were sustainable products. “Bamboo is a fast-growing plant and it’s very eco-friendly. We use leftover (recycled) wood to make watches and sunglasses. The bamboo is from China and Indonesia. The different types of leftover woods that we work with, like sandalwood, ebony, rosewood and maple wood, are either from North America or Southeast Asia,” Dina says. Eco-friendly products have not always been

FEATURE an easy sell to a skeptical public but that is changing. “Eco-friendly products were very niche and seen as a little pretentious until a few years ago. It’s actually not easy to make products that are both eco-friendly and fashionable so we try to find the right balance with that,” says Dina. We can imagine everyone wants everything designed very sleek nowadays, but how does that go with strength? There must have been much to learn at the beginning, especially in regard to strength, but they managed to overcome that too. “Since we opened the first flagship store in Shanghai, some four years, we’ve been inspired by customers and friends - the fine people of Shanghai. For example, there are over 70 new styles of sunglasses, with different shapes and finishing, with materials like purple heart wood and stone veneer as well as classic and trendy shapes. And in regard to strength, all sunglasses are fortified with multiple layers of wood, so they are stronger and won’t brake easily. Most importantly, we have invested in the best lenses we could find. Same as watches, we use the best quality Swiss movements, with double face glass for water resistance and stronger wood, like brown sandal wood and walnut.” As stated above, Kate Wood is about helping the next generations, and they want to continue doing more for children. Presently they are working with Orbis (www.orbis.org/ en), which is a nonprofit organisation with programs dedicated to blindness prevention and helping people with eye diseases. “They have their own airplanes and fly doctors to remote areas to help those who don’t have access to medical facilities. Many of our products are related to sight, so it makes sense to support Orbis,” states Dina. “We have been working with ORBIS more than six years already, from the beginning of Kate Wood, in fact. We donate 10% of our proceeds to them.” In 2016 Kate Wood opened their first flagship

store in Shanghai, China and in May 2019 the second flagship store in Bali, Indonesia. Dina has taken charge of Kate Wood in Bali. She’s no slouch and has three degrees in mechanical engineering and economics, but she chose to first work in the hospitality industry in Shanghai. In 2017, her life and profession changed completely when she joined the Kate Wood team full-time. “This began a new chapter in my life,” she starts, “and I am so happy and gratefully that this happened to me. This new venture makes me so happy, fills my creative side and brings me so much satisfaction building a brand from the ground up and achieving so much success in a relatively short period of time.” “Even though I was there helping right at the beginning of Kate Wood with my partner, Pim Gietelink, in my marketing/part owner position now in Bali I am often meeting clients at the store or attending various events. Meeting people from different professions and cultures makes my job so fulfilling. The daily interaction is always the highlight of my day,” finishes Ms Daly. You can check out the stylish and very ecofriendly of Kate Wood on Jalan Berawa, near Macan restaurant, today. I’m sure you will be impressed. [David Trauts] www.thebeatbali.com

The Residents that make

The Beat spoke with Cristian Birlanescu from Sydneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s S*A*S*H, who will be having their second monthly show at Vue Beach Club next Sunday, July 7, about their resident DJs who will be anchoring the Sunday gigs over the next months until October. According to Cris, over the last few years the three S.A.S.H residents have made the cornerstone of the S*A*S*H sound. Each has tailored their music for a different aspect â&#x20AC;&#x201C; each encompasses a different branch of the day and night. Abroad, the 2019 S*A*S*H world tour will see them cross paths with DC10 in Ibiza, Pacha Barcelona, Renate in Berlin, PIV Showcase at Claire in Amsterdam and of course, right here in Bali with their S*A*S*H Bali Open Air shows and the Gypsyland show in July. So who are these S*A*S*H resident DJs, you may ask?

FEATURE

Jake Hough:

Kerry Wallace: Taking a page out of the “all-things-sleazybouncy-and-rolling” handbook, a handbook which we suspect he very well wrote, Kerry is more than comfortable with a soundtrack of afternoon rollers to a main room headline slot. Locally, over the time at the helm of S*A*S*H, the list of more than appropriately executed warm-ups, closing and openings is much longer than we care to mention in this article sharing the stage with countless of houses’ finest. Being much of the fuel which drives this train, Kerry’s music speaks much further than the dancefloor with S.A.S.H approaching a decade and has become an internationally recognised event synonymous with a quality soundtrack and an Australian staple.

If the mark of a strong DJ is versatility, Jake must be one of the strongest acts within the Oz scene. From dubby moody room openings, euphoric morning closing sets, and main room hammer time, Jake’s musical versatility and unwavering music standard set “Hoffy” as a standout artist. With a warm tinge and a healthy nod to the roots of house music, there are few who don’t connect to Jake’s music. Elegant, simple, effective and always a cheeky classic thrown in. Now serving his signature “Breakfast at S*A*S*H” sets as the sun rises, his soundtrack perfectly mirrors the mood and colour of the room – all to full affect from the crowd. These residents will be gracing the decks of S*A*S*H Bali at Vue Beach Club over the next months, every first Sunday of the month. Check it!

Gabby: Few people boast the musical ability that Gabby has in so many forms – physically, vocally and technically. As a DJ today, she’s the lady of choice in Australia for any underground event. Her unique mix of weird, warm yet slightly wonky minimal, micro house and techno, creates an environment that both challenges & nourishes the mind while liberating the body – Gabby shines brightest when she can completely take the reins. www.thebeatbali.com

FOOD SCOOP Ona Eatery Canggu

Presenting the newest addition to the bustling Berawa food scene, Ona Eatery is redefining the standards of service and quality with their grandiose garden resto. Situated on the bend before reaching Jalan Pantai Berawa, Ona Eatery are catering to all tastes and schedules with an allday menu that leads into a more structured dinner menu. Taking flavours and styles from several cuisines, the concept revolves around diversified modern Australian comfort food and healthy eating, using imported meat & fish with fresh, locally sourced vegetables. Stand-out dishes include the Beef Brisket & Baked Eggs, Salmon Benedict and Peanut Butter & Chocolate if you’re in the mood for something sweet. The visual stand-out has to be the flowing spiral staircase leading to the (soon to be opened) rooftop. Big things are coming with their opening party and several new items to be added on the menu, if in Berawa don’t miss Ona Eatery.

W Bali Goes Zero Waste with S.O.S The W Bali – Seminyak have partnered up with Scholars of Sustenance to reduce the hotels food waste to landfill. The innovative charity collects and distributes unwanted food supplies to underprivileged children, while encouraging a cleaner and greener environment. The S.O.S in-house food hygienists will inspect the food on arrival and separate into edible and inedible food, from there they will optimise the produce and prepare nutritional meals for the children. The inedible food is then composted or given to low-income animal farms. Director of Culinary, Chef Beryl Adler comments “Having someone come collect the delicious food that we cannot resell and donate it to charities to feed locals in need is touching. I am proud to see the food leaving the hotel for a good cause. I hope everyone can take this program and integrate it in their own cities around the world to end hunger.” A great cause indeed, if you would like to learn more about the services S.O.S provide please visit scholarsofsustenance.com.

We enjoyed the Yuzu cured Hamachi, Smoked duck breast and Potato gnocchi. As for the Mains, we shared the tender Beef short rib and paired that with Coal roasted truffle cauliflower. Simply divine! To end this luscious experience, we couldn’t skip dessert. In fact, we went all in and ordered two of the most fantastic desserts we’ve tried to date. The Smoked beef fat brownie with hazelnut dacquoise and cocoa nib gelato and the Local single origin chocolate with fermented banana and condensed milk snow. These two were just, WOW! A truly memorable Date for Two. We will be back!

A quick scan of the food menu and we were eager to order. Luckily there is a “feed me” option (530k) where the chef chooses up to 15 dishes from the menu and you get to sit back and enjoy. We opted for this. The menu is a combination of what’s in season, what’s on trend and what chef Vincent loves to cook. Diners are taken on a journey through modern Australian-Asian fusion dreamland and fed a range of mouthfuls to small and large plates paired with inventive cocktails. We started off with some mouth-watering starters like the Pomme souffle, Sustainable yellow fin tuna tartlet, Smoked eel chawan mushi, Chicken satay and Babi guling empanadas.

CD REVIEW

Flower power

Flying Lotus Flamagra Flying Lotus has enjoyed quite the halfdecade since his last album, “You’re Dead!” He collaborated on Kendrick Lamarr’s groundbreaking “To Pimp A Butterfly”, while Thundercat’s Drunk gave his often abstruse Brainfeeder label a brush with mainstream success. “Flamagra” builds on that higher profile, with cameos from such left-field artists as Solange, Anderson Paak and cult director David Lynch. Musically, it’s still dense and intense, with

funk, jazz and electronics rubbing up against bumpy hip-hop. But the heavyweight line-up brings with it a welcome focus on songs, many loosely based around the theme of fire. Relatively reined-in it may be, but there’s still plenty of chaos to keep things interesting. Dan Ashcroft

cosmic synth folk

Helado Negro

This Is How You Smile Born to Ecuadorian parents in Florida and raised in Brooklyn, Roberto Carlos Lange – AKA Helado Negro – could accurately be described as a world muso, fusing classic Latino with more modern elements. Something that’s been reflected in his regular output over five modest-yet-critically-acclaimed albums. On his sixth, all the elements have converged to create his best work to date; a gentle mix of acoustica set to chill electro beats and summery synths. Subtle surrealism is the defining mantra, as songs like the immersive “Fantasma Vaga” and standout track “Running” attest to. Think languid strums, retro beats and Negro’s gorgeously

calming vocals that swing between Spanish and English – sometimes in the same song. Half the time you don’t even notice, it’s all just one lovely noise. Listen to “Pais Nublado” (cloudy country) and you’ll get the picture. Gentle strokes of piano, steel drum and xylophone are sparingly painted in here and there, the effect being a simple, intimate sound that feels greater than the sum of its parts. Do yourself a favour and find a quiet corner to go sit in while you soak this up. A joy from start to finish. Dan Ashcroft

MANISH’S ZODIAC PREDICTIONS The Beat astrologer Manish Kumar Arora reads into the next two weeks. Aries ( 21 March – 19 April )

Cancer ( 21 June – 22 July )

Your sights are set high, but several circumstances help to bring you back down to earth. You can successfully combine practical matters and more fanciful ones this period. Career offers come now, and money owed to you could also arrive. This is the perfect time to move your love life into a new area and forget traditional ideas you might have about love and commitment. Unusual alternatives like speed dating, online relationships, and other rule-breaking experiments will make you happy. Passionate romance without any strings or expectations might be the answer. Favorable Dates : 27, 30, 4 Favorable Colors : Yellow & Grey

You have a strong interest in broadening your mental experiences in general, and finding expression of your personality through them. Your vision is all the more realistic now, but pleasingly so. You work steadily and determinedly towards your goals. Authority figures and elders tend to look favorably upon you. You’ll be after true intimacy on all levels, and you won’t stop until you have it. By the end of this period, quantity in the relationship department will get replaced with quality, and this process involves time, soul-searching, frustration, and eventual fulfillment. Favorable Dates : 28, 1, 10 Favorable Colors : White & Blue

Taurus ( 20 April – 20 May )

Leo ( 23 July – 22 August )

This is an important period for managing your mind, body and spirit. If a crucial health issue is already on your agenda, keep life simple by working patiently with financial realities. A healthy perspective on your life helps to keep everyday stresses from getting to you too much. You’ll be in for some testing tussles and tumultuous attractions and it may be that others will initiate the interaction or move in close to press a point. Someone from your past may contact you, possibly seeking a recommendation or renewed partnership. Favorable Dates : 29, 2, 6 Favorable Colors : Yellow & Blue

You are forced to begin seeing others as individuals, and to improve the manner in which you relate to and with them. Relationships are seen now as serious matters! Responsibilities to partners, the need to compromise, and the realities of the needs of others become clear. You are more attracted to unusual ideas, fields, and concepts. Exposure to new ideas open up new worlds to you. Working hard at self-improvement ultimately leads to replacing your old spirit with a regenerated one. Appreciation for your efforts is forthcoming now. Favorable Dates : 1, 5, 9 Favorable Colors : Red & Green

Gemini ( 21 May – 20 June )

Virgo ( 23 August – 22 September )

You will be one step closer to knowing where you are headed, and you will have re-built faith in yourself. Ideally, you adopt a more mature attitude towards adventure and facing the unknown. You’ll have a new attitude toward your co workers and will find ways to squeeze extra work out of anyone. Tiredness and boredom might dampen your spirits for which you ought to take occasional retreats. A good balance between food, exercise and work shall see you in the pink of your health soon. Favorable Dates : 30, 3, 5 Favorable Colors : White & Grey

This period marks a new phase in your life, when you will take your appearance much more seriously, and begin working as hard as possible. New relationships, career changes, financial revamps and health concerns are in for this period. Stirring in you is the desire to make radical changes to the manner in which you go after you want in life. The best advice for increasing your earning power now is to nurture your future-oriented talents. You are now treated to a realistic look at what you have built and achieved. Favorable Dates : 3, 6, 9 Favorable Colors : White & Yellow

www.thebeatbali.com

Libra ( 23 September – 22 October )

Capricorn ( 22 December – 19 January )

It’s time to start fresh with regards to how you go about satisfying your needs for security and comfort, as well as to take charge of your life by taking the necessary steps to make yourself feel good and secure. Getting in touch with your needs for personal stability is important, as the positive effects in so doing will come back into your intimate life. You may also be just as inclined to splurge on yourself, plumping up your nest. Monetary problems from the past may clear up during this period. Favorable Dates : 28, 3, 5 Favorable Colors : White & Blue

You are likely to be more sensitive to what seem like outer world pressures that force you to examine some of your deepest desires and attachments. These include your sexual relationships, your finances and your need for control. The second week brings powerful intuition for work, the chance to turn losses into gains, and opportunities to deal with past problems. Don’t forget to take a break from monotony in work. To keep your love alive and kicking, expect the unexpected at all times, and try to go with the flow. Favorable Dates : 2, 7, 9 Favorable Colors : Green & Blue

Scorpio ( 23 October – 21 November )

Aquarius ( 20 January – 18 February )

You feel considerably more free to be yourself, and others tend to accept you more readily. Exposure to new ideas open up new worlds to you. You might need to guard against becoming too full of yourself or overly self-interested. You could experience some distinct mood swings. There is also a risk of overindulgence and other forms of extreme behaviour. You tend to be more helpful to others and spiritually inclined now. A healthy perspective on your life helps to keep everyday stresses from getting to you too much. Favorable Dates : 29, 2, 6 Favorable Colors : White & Blue

A more free-spirited and faithful attitude towards life is with you in this period. Your intuition is heightened to possibly even uncanny levels. You enjoy an increasing feeling of hope, optimism, and spiritual protection. You are building your resources, getting your finances straightened out, and learning a great deal about what makes you, and the people around you, tick. You are willingly taking the lead and others have your best interests at heart. A lover or partner is paying a lot of attention to you, and it feels fabulous. Favorable Dates : 27, 30, 5 Favorable Colors : Green & Red

Sagittarius ( 22 November -21 December )

Pisces ( 19 February – 20 March )

You become more attuned to the subtleties in your environment and in everyday activities. You absorb the mood of those around you quite easily now. This transit can add a mysterious aura to the way you project yourself to others. It is time for building a solid foundation. Understand that moderation right now is necessary for your spiritual growth and your physical body as well. The need to restructure and re-organize your life will become glaringly apparent. You feel considerably more free to be yourself, and others tend to accept you more readily. Favorable Dates : 30, 5, 9 Favorable Colors : Green & Grey

You are noticed and recognized for your natural talents on the job, and you could be busy re-investing money into your career.

The countertop bot will be coming out sometime in 2019 and will supposedly be able to produce over a gallon of beer from a single-use capsule containing malt, yeast, hop oil and flavouring. The HomeBrew will have freshly made beer ready to drink in roughly two weeks depending on the specific capsule.
