Adelaide house export Motez has been smashing it internationally, but is coming back home for The Future tour, marking his biggest headline dates yet. Fingers crossed that he smashes out that Madison Avenue remix, Mickey Kojak and Tigerilla (fresh off an official Major Lazer remix as one half of Super Cruel) also on the bill.
Sydney crew Settings are back with another one, marking the first time they’re taking over Civic Underground and its impressive sound system. Expect the best of contemporary rap, R&B and electronica, with special international guest Noodles on headline duties after DJing for Kehlani’s current visit. Settings, Ella Maximillion & Esar also in the cut.
Halfway Crooks are back with another party to herald their love of Southern rap, with an entire night dedicated to the Cash Money label. Put on your Reebok Classics for a Hot Boys medley and rub your hands like Birdman, because this is gonna be big. Will we hear ‘Moment 4 Life’ by Nicki Minaj & Drake? Only time will tell, YMCMB.
Big Village rap squad Beastside recently dropped their commendable debut album Timeframed, and they’ll be celebrating the release with a free party at The Chippo – expect bars, UK-flavoured beats and plenty of beers. South-West Sydney’s own Free Souls are in support alongside Ivy Mics and Meare.
Having thrown some of Sydney’s best parties with One Day Sundays, the crew are back with an upscaled event for the Red Bull Music Academy Weekender. Two stages with Sydney selectors like Joyride, Nick Lupi and Nes, as well as live performances from B Wise, Jackie Onassis, Remi and more. Sunday afternoon is looking big, bring a friend.
