A pathway through emotion, a process of growth and illumination, an exploration of darkness, a transmutation.

When we say that Arna takes his listeners on a journey, we aren’t just throwing the term around. 

His sets are a form of alchemy, and this is no exception. Taking influence from a range of genres while paying homage to his dubstep roots, this is a dark, wandering voyage into the depths of the void - and into the beautiful mystery beyond.

Monako has been a core figure in Eora's (Sydney, AU) electronic music scene for over a decade, making his mark as a DJ, producer, and co-founder of Big Ting Recordings and Dayshift. Known for his bold, bass-heavy sound, he thrives in the city's underground bass and techno community, pushing fresh ideas and championing the music he loves.

With a deep appreciation for breakbeat-driven sounds, Monako's sets move through techno, drum and bass, electro, and ambient elements, all tied together by gritty basslines and punchy percussion. His ability to adapt to any setting - whether a dark, intimate club, a sprawling warehouse rave, or a packed festival stage - has made him a favourite among Eora's electronic music crowd.

Beyond DJing, Monako has helped shape the local underground scene, curating and promoting events that bring cutting-edge sounds to the city. As a co-founder of Big Ting Recordings and Dayshift, he's played a key role in booking and hosting some of the world's most respected artists, including Loefah, K-LONE, Pinch, Madam X, Kahn & Neek, Jeremy Sylvester, DJ Flight, and Wa-Fu, among others.

His club-ready productions, built on breakbeat textures and detailed sound design, have earned him regular play on FBi Radio and respect from listeners and fellow artists alike. Internationally, he represented Australia at Outlook Festival (Croatia) in 2016, while back home, he has delivered standout performances at Subsonic, Secret Garden, Dragon Dreaming, and countless warehouse and club events.

Monako is always searching for new ways to challenge the limits of sound, breaking free from the usual constraints of tempo and genre. Whether building deep, atmospheric journeys or delivering raw, high-energy bass and techno, his approach keeps crowds locked in and the energy flowing.

Hailing from Mulubinba (Newcastle, AU), KreliaS is a classically trained musician whose sound channels the raw energy of heavy metal, the grit of progressive rock, and the deep rumble of dub-inspired basslines. His drum and bass sets combine moody atmospheres, emotional melodies, and raw power and intensity.

From 2021 to 2023, he co-hosted Cabin Fever Sessions on Eora's Orbital Radio, shining a light on cutting-edge underground sounds. As a core member of Newy Bass Crew, KreliaS plays a key role in shaping the local scene - helping to curate, organise, and perform at events that keep the Mulubinba bass music community thriving.

He's taken his sound to major events across the country, sharing the stage with legends like Klinical, Dillinja, Teddy Killerz, Abstrakt Sonance, Killjoy, and KOAN Sound. His sound has also resonated within the underground festival and doof circuit, with performances at events like Dragon Dreaming Festival, Zenith Gathering, Basscamp, Subsonic Music Festival, Timeless NYE, and Rootbound Festival. He's also brought the heat to events hosted by east coast crews such as Sickest House, Higher Ground, DNB Mondays, Lowfreq, Renegade Playground, Daydreaming, SHOOK, Subjective Eora, Wonky Nomad Productions, and Rave Cave.

Right now, KreliaS is deep in the lab, honing his production chops and working on new original music that captures his signature dark, emotional sound.

Belgian label brokeboi records returns with a fresh new release from emerging artist samee, a project rooted in club culture but unafraid to wander across borders.

His 4-track EP, landing April 25, dives headfirst into a hybrid soundworld of breaks, bass, and globally inspired rhythm.  

Having quietly evolved from previous work, samee steps into their own lane here. Driven by movement, the EP is playful, physical, and deeply textured.
Tracks like "piki piki" and "bamako" draw inspiration from African musical traditions, blending deep hitting vocals with rolling low-end pressure and bright, off-grid percussion. It’s club music with a wide lens.

Across the four cuts, samee balances the raw energy of the dancefloor with a detail-oriented production style that rewards repeat listens.
The result is a project that feels just as at home in peak-time sets as it does on home speakers, an intentional duality.
