HDNET TO BROADCAST “HDNET FIGHTS: DREAM 15″ LIVE
HDNet will feature LIVE coverage of “HDNet Fights: DREAM 15″ from the Saitama Super Arena in Japan early morning Saturday, July 10 at 3:00 a.m. ET. A primetime replay will follow on Friday, July 16 at 10:00 p.m. ET.
After DREAM 14 was hailed as one of the most exciting MMA shows of the first half of
2010, all eyes now turn to DREAM 15′s stacked card this Saturday. All ideas of good sportsmanship and the revered Bushido code of respect will be thrown out when the heated rivalry between two of the world’s top 5 ranked Lightweight fighters finally explodes at DREAM 15.
Submission ace Shinya Aoki defends his DREAM lightweight title against arch-nemesis Tatsuya “Crusher” Kawajiri in a blockbuster main event that can be seen exclusively on HDNet!
“The matchups are stacked from top to bottom at DREAM 15,” said Andrew Simon, CEO of HDNet Fights. “With the LIVE broadcast on HDNet, DREAM 15 is a chance to prove to North America that the Japanese MMA community is still at the top of its game and features the best fighters in the world.” The showdown between Japan’s two leading lightweights comes after many months of ill will between the two. Kawajiri has long demanded a showdown with Aoki, promising to knock out the submission specialist. Aoki, who comes off a loss to Gilbert Melendez in the USA, needs to win this match to both silence Kawajiri and reaffirm his standing as one of the world’s best Lightweights.
In more DREAM 15 action, former DREAM Middleweight GP champion Gegard Mousasi looks to rally back from a loss to Muhammed Lawal, as he takes part in the four-man DREAM Light Heavyweight Grand Prix. Mousasi takes on six-time UFC veteran Jake O’Brien, who has gone 7-3 in his last 10 bouts including wins over Heath Herring, Christian Wellisch and Dave Hess.
On the other side of the DREAM Light Heavyweight Grand Prix draw, Holland’s Melvin Manhoef, who boasts 23 KO’s in his 24 MMA career victories, takes on tough Tatsuya Mizuno
Also on the card, brilliant Brazilian JZ Cavalcantereturns to action for the first time in more than a year when he takes on Katsunori Kikuno.Cavalcante, a former two-time Hero’s Middleweight Champion looks to put injuries and inactivity behind him as he takes on the masterful DEEP champion Kikuno.
In another highly-anticipated match, M-1 star Karl Amoussou makes his DREAM debut against Kazuhiro Nakamura, who retired the great Hidehiko Yoshida in his last fight. Amoussou is a ferocious talent who has stopped opponents in 11 of his 12 career wins.
And, for a special treat, Sengoku star Michihiro Omigawa makes his DREAM debut against Young Sam Jung of Korea.

“Back To Basics (Satoshi Tomiie Mes Original)”
www.rephlektorink.com/kits/BackToBasics.mp3
Satoshi Tomiie plays an integral part in one of dance music’s biggest legacies. A top DJ, producer and owner of Saw Recordings, Tomiie is also a member (along with David Morales, Frankie Knuckles, Hector Romero and GM, Judy Weinstein) of the legendary Def Mix crew. Those in the know can attest to the fact that dance music would simply not be the same without their influence; and through all the ups and downs of the industry, this team always pushes back stronger. The New York City-by-way-of-Tokyo based Tomiie feels particularly inspired these days and drops a techno monster with the release (under the guise of MES) of “Back To Basics.” On the flip, Motorcitysoul adds some Detroit flavor to the mix
“Back To Basics” is about digging deep and searching for the one feeling or moment that inspired your love of music. Do you remember the smile you had on your face when you heard something fresh and new for the first time? Remove all the inhibitions and let loose the way you used to. For Satoshi Tomiie, “Back To Basics” is not about revisiting the past just to create something retro or ironic, but rather, he’s referencing key moments of his musical life to create for the future. No rules, no limits. See it. Hear it. Feel it.
“Back To Basics” is released through Satoshi Tomiie’s own label, Saw Recordings. Established in 2001, Tomiie views the label as a forum for experimentation and creativity regardless of style; just great music. To date, Saw has released nearly 80 singles, four artist albums and was among the first to release tracks from the likes of Chab, Guy Gerber, Jim Rivers, Nick Chacona, Nathan Fake and Lexicon Avenue.
In addition to the releases on Saw (including his own mix compilations ES and ES-B), Tomiie is responsible for the all-time dance music classic “Tears” (w/ Frankie Knuckles) and the critically acclaimed debut artist album Full Lick (2000) featuring the outstanding anthem “Love In Traffic” (with ex-Sneaker Pimps singer Kelli Ali.) Tomiie also mixed the fastest and highest selling edition in Global Underground’s Nubreed Series (2002); he mixed the first album of Renaissance’s 3D series (2006); and followed it up with Renaissance: The Masters Series Vol. 9 (2007) and Renaissance: The Masters Series – Satoshi Tomiie (2008). When not running the label, producing or remixing music, Tomiie can be found manning the decks of the finest international clubs.
