Night Slugs. Bok Bok & Girl Unit will melt the concrete superstructure with their trademark brand of innovative bass fusion - Two trailblazers responsible for some of the most original new dance sounds in recent memory.
Skeleten crafts a sound that is informed by a history in dance and electronic music alongside a broad ear for raw and emotive energies from new-age and chill-out artists to city pop and dub.
Melbourne-based duo Close Counters are one of Australia’s hottest exports, strutting their stuff at the crossroads of house, neo-soul, broken beat and disco. Alongside their 7-piece tour-de-force live group, Close Counters have swept through bucket-list festivals like Splendour In The Grass, Falls Festival, and Let Them Eat Cake all while selling out show after show in Melbourne and Sydney.
嶋田会希–Elle Shimada is a violinist, producer, curator, DJ and multi-instrumentalist from Tokyo based in Melbourne. Her unique combination of thickly layered string lines making tender love to heavy new-jazz influenced beats creates a cinematic and other-worldly atmosphere while keeping the dance floor pulsing with visionary and edgy production.
Heavily inspired by late 90s UK dance music, Club Angel explores the moodier side of 2-Step, Jungle and Garage with tight drums, sampled orchestral stabs and melancholic vocals.
Crybaby is a Melbourne (Naarm) based DJ who is known for bringing multifarious and energetic sets to spaces across Australia. With a cultured palette, she unites a perfect balance of house, hip hop and everything in between, exposing new sounds to party goers and delivering them a different medium to digest music.
Crescendoll is a Gamilaraay woman and Eora based DJ. Selected for FBi's Dance Class 2020 program, she flirts with juke, jersey, footwork, hard drum, UK bass, garage and acid and is an appreciator of all things club.
Your favourite artist’s favourite DJ, Munasib combines baile funk with local hip-hop, alte cruise with amapiano, and traditional Bengali music with experimental trap. Keeping company with burgeoning local talent and sharing stages with international superstars, each smoothly unpredictable transition reflects multiplicity and a journey through a cultural abundance.
With sets that are multilayered, multigenred, and raucous from start to finish, weaving together club styles from every corner of dance music. Their fluid approach has earned them slots supporting Nina Las Vegas, Jasmine Infiniti, and KLLO, as well as mainstay status on the queer circuit, conducting dance floors for House of Mince, Leak Your Own Nudes, Summer Camp Festival, BYPASS, and more.
