Join us as we return to the thunderdome, taking over Brown Alley with a host of techno’s biggest names. ANNA, Stephan Bodzin (Live) + Luna Semara. Spread across 3 rooms, with 3 internationals and a host of Melbourne/Naarm’s most exciting local artists, we’re turning things up a notch.

ANNA: In recent years, ANNA has cemented a name for herself as one of Brazil’s finest exports. Climbing the ranks with her seductive, heavy-hitting brand of techno, she is at the forefront of the modern techno movement, performing at Warung, D-Edge, Time Warp, Awakenings, Tomorrowland, DC10, Movement Detroit, The Block Tel Aviv + countless more global stages. On a production front, she’s dropped critically acclaimed music on the world’s most significant record labels; Hotflush, Drumcode, Afterlife, and Domino, remixing works for artists such as Jon Hopkins, and earning the nod of approval from Mixmag, and DJ Mag. ANNA beautifully executes a brand of techno that is as moving as it is impactful, peaking and flowing perfectly for any packed-out stadium or arena.

Stephan Bodzin: At this stage in his longstanding career, Stephan Bodzin is very much his own man. His extensive achievements don’t matter to him. He is on a mission to interest and surprise himself, to find new musical avenues and explore different perspectives. Considered one of the most thrilling live shows in techno, his most recent album ‘Boavista’ and its accompanying world tour exhibits his essence beautifully. The music on ‘Boavista’ is bright and colourful, whilst still holding his trademark synth sounds that have long defined Bodzin's output, mostly on his own Herzblut Recordings label, but also more recently Afterlife. Having headlined the world’s biggest stages more than once, from Awakenings, Afterlife, Sonar, Timewarp, Nuits Sonores, and more, he continues to define modern techno, in a way that no one else can.

Luna Semara: The German artist, with a French and African background, certainly feels at home on the global music stage. She knows how to manipulate the environment and create the perfect dance conditions for her audience. Having moved to Berlin in the late 90s, she felt safe in the dark concrete rooms of Tresor where heavy techno was played, and this mixture of pumping bass, beats and synths, captured her heart. Luna Semara has performed at Rex in Paris, Rocker33 in Stuttgart, IPSE in Berlin and Spartacus in Aix-en-Provence. On a production front, her first EP ‘The Pink Room’ appeared on Stephan Bodzin’s label Herzblut Recordings in 2015, and received industry praise from the likes of Marc Romboy, John Digweed, Christian Smith, Thomas Schumacher and Gregor Tresher. This showcase will be an Australian debut for Luna, and comes highly anticipated.
