Bunker Podcast 52 - SANCTUM

SANCTIFY #3

NOVUS – ˈnɔːvus, new.

NOVUS was the set that took an intimate dancefloor in the Aussie bush into the 2022 New Year. After the tough years we’ve just had, my sights were set on lighting up the crowd with maximum groove, funk and energy. A release like times of old bringing with it the fresh energy of a New Year. I’ve produced the artwork to articulate what this feels like to me in sight and sound.

SANCTUM

NOVUS

A founding figure of Equinox and :affinity, Melbourne’s @sanctum-aus moves into any space with the desire to create an atmosphere.

Exporting a fluid blend of techno, acid, breakbeat, dub and electro – SANCTUM links together genres with an ear for groove and a playful attitude. Grounded in fast and deep rhythmics, his driving sound brings energy and funk to centre stage.

From a young age SANCTUM has seen visual textures and colour in sound, which he uses to create abstract artwork that visually describes his music. This led him to develop his own audio-visual mix series titled 'SANCTIFY' as well as artwork for Equinox and :affinity's events.

SANCTUM’s approach has garnered a memorable list of appearances supporting industry heavyweights such as FJAAK, SPFDJ, Matrixxman, AIROD and Regal in addition to Melbourne’s most prominent venues and festivals.

SANCTIFY #1

TENEBRIS – ˈt̪ɛ.nɛ.briːs, Darkness.

I created this artwork to visualize a descent into the unknown. The groove rolls deep and quick, always pushing for more energy. Yet i maintain playfulness and funk at the heart of my approach, even in darkness there is room to play. Never lose sight of the fun.

SANCTIFY #2

VELOX – ˈvɛː.lɔks, Swift.

Recorded live at our first Equinox event since lockdown, the absolute intention of this set was to bring a year's worth of pent-up energy to the dancefloor. I produced the artwork with the goal of bringing the uplifting and uncontainable energy we experienced in this moment to life.
