Ahead of their Perth Festival party on March 1, Crip Rave Theory hosts two very special guests—halalbutch and Lakatoi.

halalbutch (Aisyah Sumito) is a malay-anglo poet, sound artist, gallery technician and community organiser operating towards a provision of tools for collective liberation; which manifests in different ways from the dinner table, through the club and to the gallery. ithin their thoughtfully curated sound-based selections you can expect (or not) a non-exhaustive variety of experimental broken beats, instrumental drones, old school house, IDM, jungle, footwork and jersey. 

Ripley Kavara also known as Lakatoi, is an experimental producer, musician, and curator from Naarm Melbourne. His work creates immersive spaces that combine sound, embodiment, and spiritual connection. Through these spaces, he hopes to achieve catharsis, by naming some of those intangible feelings we all live with. As a DJ Lakatoi is a club renegade - bringing you left-field, rhythm-driven genres like gqom, kuduro, batida + ambient magic. 

Tune in for two sick mixes!
