Inspired by the warmth of old dance production and the slowed pace of 2020, Zak’s ‘Degenhardt’ project was as much a way to inspire themselves as it was to soothe, harking back to moments of nostalgia of youth and memories of dance floors to occupy their thoughts through uncertain times.

The Melbourne born producer has begun to diversify his productions and has created a new sound far from what he has been putting out under the Cassettes For Kids moniker the past several years.

With slew of releases ready to set the tone for your evening, you will be exposed to the funkier and more soulful side of Degenhardt on a dance-floor near you.

After one night in Prague changed the course of his life, Finnian Langham returned to his hometown of Melbourne with a hunger to master the art of making people move. He quickly developed a reputation for his rambunctious DJ sets, adventuring deep into the depths of the Cyborg Disco.

A slew of acclaimed releases followed on both local and international labels including Sour Edits, Whisky Disco, Clipp.art and Hotfoot, showcasing his unique sampladelic production style, and cementing him as a mainstay of Melbourne’s dance-music community.

Over time, his sound has broadened, and now you might catch him spinning anything from obscure 80’s synthpop to acid-tinged EBM and the odd bit of techno. Never one to be pinned down, Kayroy artfully blends these varied influences to deliver sets that are dynamic and exciting, heightened by his captivating stage presence.

Immersed in Melbourne’s lively electronic music scene is Pretty Girl, a producer, singer, and DJ. PG (Emilia Predebon) discovered Ableton in her teens and has since spent years producing dance music in her bedroom, as well as becoming a prominent member of the dance music community in her city.

With tastes and technical skill that go far beyond her years, PG’s sound finds a unique balance between characteristic dance rhythms and ethereal, emotional synthesisers. The end result, as observed with her tracks such as “Message” and “Rely (Vodka Lime and Sad Mix)”, is a warm-blooded and sentient breed of club music that can soundtrack a walk home, or invigorate a dance floor.

In terms of her live shows, PG puts forward a 100% original live set, with accompanying vocals. Having withdrawn from formal education and a formal career to pursue her dream, PG dedicates her life to the production and performance of her music. Listen on all streaming platforms, and keep an eye out for her live shows once the pandemic has passed.
