The CUTSNAKE boys whipped together this hour of goodness for the pleasure of your ears.....

Arguably two of the biggest legends you will ever meet, their energy is infectious and you just can't not love these two... They also back it up making amazing tunes....

With a name like NGHTMRE you're probably expecting wall to wall bangers, luckily for you that's exactly what you're going to get. From vocal driven house tunes to bass heavy future house NGHTMRE barely gives you a chance to breath. It's no wonder why he has been playing to crowds in excess of 10,000 fans at EDC Las Vegas and other festivals of the sort.

If you're hesitant to listen, don't be scared, it's more of a dream than a nightmare.

Everyone knows the scenario; your parents say you can have a few close friends around for a gathering and before you know it, she’s turned in to a full-blown house party that’s gaining momentum by the minute! In our case, the ZANEROBE bosses said we could have ‘a few’ people in to ZR HQ for a little shindig.

Fortunately for us ‘a few’ is a pretty subjective term so we deemed a guest list of about 100 people to be fair. As most of our pals have rubber arms when it comes to parties it took very little convincing to get the Set Mo boys on board to play along with our own Thomas Lissé on warm up duties.

What ensued was possibly the most epic office party in the history of office parties. The tunes were on point, the sound system could be heard two blocks away and the crowd absolutely lapped it up.

Take a listen to 1.5 of hands in the air, housey heaven!

When's the last time you stepped onto the dance floor and felt as though you couldn't leave. Cemented there for hours, dancing non stop. Each song that rolls around you say to yourself "ok, I'll leave after the next track" but it never happens. The vibe is high and the tunes are too good, you can't pull yourself away. You've lost track of time and you're absolutely fine with it. When the play button is pressed for the last time and the lights eventually turn on everyone refuses to leave, they want "one more song".

It seems rare these days to find a DJ that can maintain the energy and keep people going for the long haul. Possessing an arsenal of tunes that grab you by the ears and won't let you go,  Housing Corp seem to be a diamond in the rough.  The live mix above stands as proof. The 1.5hr length just isn't long enough, 3hrs probably wouldn't be long enough either, we could listen to these guys for days.
Unfortunately we've got to work with what we've got so take a listen, put it on repeat and love every moment!

The Go Freek boys have just thrown this mix our way and ohhhh daddy it is epic! It's got us bouncing from start to finish. 
These two are destined for big things, having recently returned from a whirlwind jaunt to the US and jumping in the studio with some pretty big names, we look forward to watching them take off as they continue to build momentum and their tracks gain more and more traction.

Generik is a party boy, well that's the way it comes across anyway. But let me tell you, this guy works harder then you're average USB wielding, track selecting, party starter. Doing 5 gigs and spending over 24 hours in transit in one week is nothing out of the usual for him, and that's on top of commitments for Channel V as their 'dance music expert'.

We were thrilled to have Generik drop by the office one fine Thursday evening for a healthy dose of shit talking and carrying on. He threw down an epic mix for the team which kicked us in to party mode. If it weren't for the deadlines the next day it definitely would have escalated. 

Take a listen to the mix and get your party on!

When you think 'German house music producer/DJ' the first thing that pops to mind is the 'sorry you can't sit with us', too cool for school persona. In some instances this rings true, but it couldn't be any further from the truth with Daniel Bortz.
His down to earth, light hearted attitude catches you by surprise before the juxtaposition of his cheerful personality and the moody, melancholic musical expression he wields sets in. The undulating, minimalistic tracks he both creates and plays mesmerise your mind and occupy your full attention, finding the perfect balance; neither overbearing nor monotonous.

Take a listen and enjoy as Daniel Bortz ushers you on a satisfying musical migration.

Sydney is brimming with talent,  showcasing mixes from the likes of Frames, Ben Ashton, Mantra Collecting, U-Khan etc. has made that crystal clear. Although we think we’re digging deep in to the Sydney scene when we come across artists such as Piecey, we realise that we’re only just scratching the surface.

With only 400 followers on Soundcloud its clear that he hasn’t been around for too long, but that just adds to the thrill the first time you hear his amazing remixes and originals. His immense skill is a culmination of natural tallent and classical training. After attending Sydney’s highly prestigious Conservatorium of Music, Piecey has decided to take an alternative path to his classmates, opting for synthesizers and electronic music rather than the traditional route. Similarly to ZANEROBE he’s all about pushing the boundaries, progressing by creating in a unique way to devise an end product that exceeds all expectation time and time again.

Our discovery of Piecey excites us, we’re expecting big things ahead from this dude. Have a listen to the mix and head over to the site for the download and to read of our interview.

It seemed like Ninetoes magically appeared out of the blue in 2013 with his release 'Finder' in tow. The track dropped him right in the spotlight, it was comfortably one of the songs of the year and received widespread praise, being played by artists such as Carl Cox, Koze, Loco Dice, and Jesse Rose.

Although this was the first time much of dance community had heard of him, what lead to this point was 15 years of hard work in the studio and playing gigs around the world.

The wealth of experience and knowledge that 15 years in the game has instilled becomes obvious when Ninetoes steps up to the plate.
Velvety smooth faultless mixing, song selection that caters to even the most discerning house music aficionados and a presence that commands your attention whilst making crystal clear that he truly loves what he's doing. This wealth of experience and knowledge becomes obvious when Ninetoes steps up to the plate, not only is his song selection tip top but his seamless mixing is a pleasure to say the least. 

Ninetoes was recently in town, and we were chuffed when he decided to stop by the office to hang out with the crew, grab some ZANEROBE threads and record a mix that has been clocking up some serious airtime in the office since.
Head to the following link for the interview, to see what threads he's been repping and for the download link.

Our favourite camping festival, Return to Rio is back! The perfect way to wrap up the silly season, before we head in to hibernation for a few months of much needed chillout time. 

Our dress-ups are sorted, set times are released and we're just about ready to run amuck for two days of serious partying. Honestly, we're pretty pumped, much of this excitement is thanks to this mix by one of Sydney's finest, Cassette. 

She's been jumping around the local circuit for as long as we can remember, always managing to bring her A game. We can't wait  play before her at the Loveshack stage from 6:30 - 8PM on Saturday evening, if you're around come and have a dance!

Whether you're driving to Return to Rio or just sitting at your desk and wishing you were, listen to Cassette's mix and get you're groove on.

One of Sydney's most recognised exports, Hayden James has made a name for himself by producing floor filling, panty dropping, buckle loosening tracks. In 2014 he unapologetically marked his territory with 'Permission to Love' and then last year laid a smackdown shortly after with the haymaker 'Something About You'. 2015 was the year of Hayden, set's at festivals like Coachella and Splendour in the Grass , collaborations with Odesza, supporting Disclosure and high rotation on some of the worlds champion radio stations, he was unstoppable.

Those that have caught either his live show or a DJ set will be well aware that he doesn't shy away, he knows how to bring the heat and his sets need to be handled with care, oven mitts must be worn at all times. Hayden recently dropped by the office for a bit of banter and a mix, listen to his mix and head over to the site to get the lowdown on what he's been up to and his plans for 2016. Be careful, it's hot.

Having cut his teeth behind the decks since 2010 with some of Rome’s premiere parties, our very own Yokobus' wealth of experience performing across the globe under a string of aliases brings a much needed level of maturity into the ZANEROBE family. 

Originally from Italy, Jacopo Lancioni has found in Sydney an outlet to explore a much more underground, conceptual side of his work which covers far more than music - earning the respect of his peers alike and most recently, a permanent residency. 

With an undeniably keen ear for the stripped-back and relentless side of house and fast-paced minimal funk, Yokobus has rapidly emerged as an exciting new prospect within the Sydney underground scene. 

Responsible for the Halftone podcast series and all things party-related at ZRHQ, Jacopo kicks off the 15th mixtape with his new original 'Cosmic Blues' forthcoming on Conspiracy VA - Sydney's underground party crew and record label founded by a crew of like-minded creatives including Jacopo himself.

A true vibe master, Robbie Lowe’s love for playing timeless records remains as strong as the day he first jumped on the turntables at a house party back in 1993. With a reputation as ‘the nicest guy in Australian dance music,’ Robbie’s affable nature coupled with an innate sense of how to move a dance floor has seen him endure as one of the country’s most respected and in-demand DJs.

A rising star throughout the early 2000s at iconic Sydney parties like Sweetchilli and Sounds on Sunday, Robbie’s impeccable taste, technical ability, and adept programming secured him as a crowd favorite. With a style indebted to progressive house, the genre’s ethos remains at the foundation of his signature sound, whether he’s dropping sun-drenched deep house, melodic late-night tech, or early morning chug.

From the legendary early morning Spice Cellar sets and ‘all night long’ marathons at Civic Underground and S.A.S.H, to rocking the Electric Gardens Festival main stage after Armand Van Helden, Robbie’s accolades are many. He has warmed up floors for some of the biggest names in the business and in 2019 was personally selected by Sasha and John Digweed as warm-up DJ for their first Australian shows together in 13 years. Across the seas, he has played and toured regularly in the USA, UK, China, Indonesia, and Fiji.

In the mix series realm, Robbie has contributed to the esteemed Balance podcast, John Digweed’s Transitions radio show and released a compilation on the revered Ministry Of Sound label. He has also produced a handful of celebrated EPs, including collaborations with fellow Sydneysider Matt Rowan. Their latest release, ‘Luminary’, drops in June 2020.

Unfazed by his standing in the scene, Robbie continues to hone his craft with a humble and quiet determination. You can tell by the perpetual smile planted across his face – he’s just a guy that loves to play music. It’s as simple as that.
