Oliver Huntemann: Huntemann’s concrete roots can be traced back to early techno, and, like so many of his colleagues, his route to techno took a tour through electro and rave. Today the techno veteran is more relevant than ever, and his label Senso Sounds has opened him up to whole new generation of electronic music lovers. With a string of acclaimed works to his names, his yearly schedule sees him playing across the globe on the world’s biggest stages. Nearly 3 years on since his last Australian showcase, his return is something to be celebrated.
Oliver Schories: Oliver Schories is one of the most well loved names in modern techno. With countless global shows and a discography which is increasingly getting longer, Schories' appeal lies in his ability to deliver undeniably infectious tracks, and deliver bang-on sets every time he performs. His album Relatively Maybe was the perfect introduction into the German's world; that is a world filled with lush melodies and tight productions, while his subsequent releases have earned him followers across the globe. With an incredible knack for straddling that House/Techno mid-point with consummate ease’, we can’t wait to welcome his return.
Jordan Brando: Australia’s beloved DJ next door Jordan Brando has a penchant for deep tech house grooves and heaving basslines. Exhibiting sets that are packed full of energy, his original productions have been pumped and bumped by the best all around the world, frequenting dance charts around the world. With standout performances at Pitch Music & Arts, Beyond The Valley or opening for the likes of Patrick Topping, it's quite evident the future is bright for Jordan as he begins his campaign to become one of Australia's most promising dance music exports.
Local support: Aldonna, Fosters + Willem
