I made you a mix tape of super cool mostly local kids and their super cool mostly local tracks. This list is by no means definitive given how thick and heavy Melbourne is with talent but is a small sample of those I've had the pleasure to see, perform alongside and admire. Those in the list who are not Melbourne based left their mark here too and for that I am grateful. Thanks for being rad Melbourne. Regards - Laura Davis      @}-,--'---

Thank you also to the venues that continue to put all these amazing people and myself on stage. Tote Hotel, John Curtain, Howler, Grace Darling, Old Bar, Bar Open, Public Project, Loop Bar, Long Play, Yarra Hotel, Post Office Hotel, Tramway Hotel, Also Gallery, Liberty Social (may it rest in peace)and many more, without them I would never have come in contact with any of these wonderful human beings and certainly my life would not be as full as it is today.

Let me know if I've missed anyone super obvious or for any reason you'd like me to remove your track from this list. x

RIP IV is a bpd opera from the collective subconscious of E Fishpool, Kalyani, and Sam Miers. Set across Batemans Bay, Carlton, Bookar and Box Hill, the show traverses big emotions through dance music, improvisation, sampling and live instrumentation. Are organ covers the ultimate DJ hype edit? 

Played between CDJs, ableton, guitars, usbs, a heavy (and light) keyboard and human singing, RIP IV is a constant live edit, with Emily, Sam n Kalyani rotating roles and responsibilities to hold the set and move it forward. 

The set is constantly collapsing in on itself - with each artist offering new narratives whilst the others are slowly being ripped apart, re-used and recontextualised. It is a type of experimentation where the artists are able to bring all of themselves whilst simultaneously being open to being challenged.. Not only through sound, but through a collective vulnerability and openness to creating something incommensurable (fully tweaked). 

Punters reported experiencing something similar to an acid trip and tears were shed while hugging boulders.

This mix was created by one of the truest underground angels of the Naarm/ Melbourne rave and hardcore scenes, Bridget Flack.

Writing this introduction has been difficult, however, it was important to Bridget that this mix be released and shared. She said it was the best mix she’d ever made.

We want to honour not only an amazing artist and DJ but also an incredible member of our community, whose impact on our underground music scene we want to celebrate. We know she put so much thought, effort and passion into creating this and we hope that in sharing it we can bring to you that same passion and energy that Bridget radiated each and every day of her life.

Below is the statement she sent us to publish alongside her mix;.
“It’s been said that DJ Brigida fell into the world of electronic music from ‘that one Chumbawamba album where they use a lot of breakbeat loops.’ From there her and her friends would pretend they enjoyed running and hosting punk shows, only until they realised how much easier it is when you throw parties and don’t invite bands, thus starting the Vapor Noir collective in 2016.

As a DJ, Brigida is easily distracted and capricious, technically favouring UK bass music but often straying in confusing and aesthetically annoying directions. She tries as much as possible to invade male spaces, be obnoxiously Trans, hide Communist discourse as well as Chumbawamba into her work, while pretending also to be a robot”
RIP Bridget Erin Flack.
