YANNI FOREVER

“Groove City are a down-under version of Chromeo that we are vibing... [they'll] satisfy your deepest darkest disco desires.” - Pilerats
 
“Capitalising on acts before them like Total Giovanni or even very early Client Liaison, yet putting their own spin on it, Groove City are sitting on a treasure trove of tunes that will make you feel good inside and out.” - Purple Sneakers
 
“Injecting a sorely-needed dose of unadulterated funk into our local scene, Daniel Andaloro and Calum Mawson have spent the last 12 months fulfilling a mission handed down to them by the disco gods themselves: bless this wholly unprepared world with straight-up baby makin’ slow jams.” - Best Before

Stratovox is a Sri Lankan music project founded by Rajitha Karunaratne in 2013 as an outlet for him to express his ideas on music. He always enjoyed listening to various genres of music and one that he loved the most was the field of Electronic/Dance music. Despite never having studied music theory or received training, he began by exploring the world of music production step by step using his ears and influences as his guide. 

The music produced varies between House, Trance, Big Beat, Ambient and Orchestral compositions.

Aura is a music collective based in the Western Suburbs of Melbourne. Though striving to facilitate in developing Melbourne’s burgeoning creative scene by providing a public platform through which local and international artists can showcase their talent. Aura sound stems from the deeper parts of techno focused primarily around hypnotic textures. With a new label launching this year, Aura wishes to broaden this sound and shape it into its own through deep melodic/hypnotic and natural textures with progressive rhythms.

Aura team has been a commitment to supporting our community through philanthropic initiatives. One such initiative has been our weekly podcast series commencing early last year, which is oriented towards aiding disadvantaged groups that have been adversely effected by the unique exigencies associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The series has currently raised over $3,000 for a variety of charities chosen by members of the Aura team, ranging from the Starlight Foundation, the Melbourne City Mission, and Beyond Blue. The Aura team will ensure that all proceeds derived from forthcoming podcasts, events, and records will continue to be used in a manner that gives back to the community in which we love, promoting both the Melbourne art industry and salient social causes we care deeply about.

An old school raver at heart and leading Melbourne taste maker, Shannon's contribution to Melbourne's electronic music scene is immense. The Supermeracdo Records label boss can be found throwing down sets or raves at Melbourne's most iconic institutions as well as releasing production on his own label and globally in the breakbeat, acid and jungle genres. In addition to local appearances and production, his DJ sets have found their way into international institutions such as Glow Bangkok, Octova in Bogata, Colombia and South East Asia's revered jungle rave Kerfuffle in Cambodia.   

As well as performing as a mainstay on Melbourne's notorious 24 hour DJ circuit, Shannon has contributed as booker and music programmer for New Guernica, Boney and Melbourne's legendary Revolver Upstairs as well as founding acid house night Loomer and the infamous Trust Events. Having supported some of the biggest names in the business such as Peggy Gou, Mister Saturday Night, Jacques Renault, Michael Mayer, !!! (Chk Chk Chk), Terry Francis, Kolsch, Toro y Moi and The Revenge (playing b2b at his weekly rave Loomer), Shannon has grown a diverse and educated library, with more than a nod and a wink to the old school.
