Re-sparking the elsewhere sound series with our longstanding Saturday Night guest resident "Walker"

As a multi-talented presence in QLD’s music landscape, Walker resists genre-defining labels and channels the spirit of openness that was once the default in electronic music.

Walker’s talent breathes its way through his musical output. “Music is always evolving, nothing stands still....And that’s exactly how I like it”.

@ lowdownmusik

Australian DJ and producer Lowdown is creating some of the most hard-hitting dance music in the electronic world right now. The Gold Coast-based artist has made a name for himself by not only producing top tier dance beats but also by showcasing his creative and effortless skill behind 4 decks. After exploring various corners of the electronic world, Lowdown has recently taken a deeper dive into the underground with heavy rave influences garnished atop his house & techno foundation.

‘Organ Donor’ (Lowdown’s first release on his own imprint 411 Records) skyrocketed to number 1 on the ARIA Club Chart in 2021, picking up support from dance titans Green Velvet, Gorgon City, Eli Brown, Ben Hemsley, James Hype and received multiple spins on Triple J.

It’s no secret Lowdown is one of the hardest working artists with his weekly radio show/podcast ‘411 Radio’ broadcasting at prime time on 105.7 Radio Metro every Sat night from 10-11pm

Next up to the plate with the seventh chapter in our elsewhere sound series, a man needing little introduction; Tim Fuchs.

Ahead of his return to our social club on Friday September 30th, he's put together this mix for you; an interpretation of a Friday night under our roof. 

"...I’ve been sitting on a tonne of tunes over the last 12 to 18 months, that in all honesty, I don’t really get the opportunity to play a lot (be it venue, vibe or dance floor dynamics getting in the way).

I shifted musically around that time and have been waiting to get the right bookings & opportunities to play these sounds.

As far as i’m concerned, there's no safer place to test the waters of a new direction than the elsewhere dance floor.

I’m super excited to be back in the booth at elsewhere & I hope this mix gets you in the mood too (it worked for me)."
