MV015 Sunshine

Picture this- A dance floor you don’t want to leave. It’s heaving with an aura infectious to those still waiting out the front of the club. The energy is ablaze with electronic music devotees, smiles on faces and drinks in the air, where everyone unites and rejoices when the aptly named Sunshine graces those coveted decks. With an anthemic groove to hook you back in, the Melbourne DJ, producer and curator of Disco Faith Recordings strings together a renowned slew of nu disco, soulful house, jacking house, progressive house, Detroit techno and driving techno to make you want to get up and go out.

Having taken to the turntables everyday, Sunshine garnered cheeky late night rave slots leading to iconic headline shows and it was evident that Melbourne was perfect for her. With 22 years as a DJ she has truly devoted herself to the house, disco and techno journey, watching Melbourne flock to her dance floor at Revolver Saturdays for the 7am Rise & Shine session every Saturday morning for 19 years, where she’s also played with the likes of Gary Beck, Radio Slave, Seth Troxler and Sven Vath. Sunshine’s residency at Poof Doof since 2012 has also been one for the record books. On the festival circuit, Sunshine has graced us with her radiating dose of hapno (happy house and techno), at Beyond The Valley, Splendour In The Grass, Piknic Electronik and Babylon alongside the likes of international pioneers Gorge, Amelie Lens, Horse Meat Disco and Butch.

In 2016 Sunshine embarked on a different kind of sonic energy. Creating Sunshine and Disco Faith choir, she had a vision to fuse a club-ready DJ set with the uplifting energy of a 12 piece choir, making people rejoice. Selling out shows and welcoming the congregation, she went on to curate Disco Faith Recordings, delivering an energy, disco ambiance and underground hues to have the masses on their feet. In 2021, Sunshine’s ability to adapt and transform as a performer has gone from strength to strength. Whilst many slowed down, Sunshine beamed down on us all. Closing the coveted Sidney Myer Music Bowl for Piknic Electronik in January 2021 and headlining events such as infamous the Untitled day parties, The Breakfast Club, Poof Doof Sydney, Novel Classics and Xe54 plus her usual haunts. Lock in breakfast at Revolver Saturdays or claim a spot at a summer festival with a sneaky dose of dance floor bliss from Sunshine, and your weekend couldn't get any better.

MV015 Sunshine

Embarking on a cosmic odyssey with Joe Mattei's latest release, a journey that transcends the boundaries of sound and transports listeners to uncharted realms.

The four-track EP features three originals plus a stellar remix by Rafael Cerato to compliment the release perfectly.

Onus, the opening track, serves as a launchpad for this interstellar expedition with its hypnotic baseline and mesmerising synth work, establishing an immediate connection to the deep and mysterious. 

Assume follows, throwing us deeper into the cosmic abyss with a tribal like rhythm. Joe's meticulous drum groove conjures an interplay of light and shadow, evoking the feeling of drifting through the infinite expanse of space between sounds.

The release reaches its climax with Exists, almost like an an otherworldly transmission equipped with a driving bassline and infectious energy.

To complement this stellar journey, Rafael Cerato provides a remix of the title Onus that takes the track to new heights. Cerato's interpretation adds a unique dimension to the EP, infusing it with his signature style while preserving the otherworldly essence of the original.

Joe Mattei's Onus EP is a testament to the power of electronic music to transport us to places beyond our imagination. It's a release that invites you to leave the familiar behind and venture into the dark, progressive, and melodic landscapes, where the boundaries of reality dissolve, and the mysteries of the universe await.

Get ready to embark on this interstellar journey.

Hey, ich bin Marco – und ich liebe elektronische Musik.
Mitte der 90er habe ich meine ersten Schallplatten gekauft. Kurz darauf standen auch schon zwei Technics 1210er bei mir – und die drehen sich bis heute regelmäßig in meinem Musikzimmer.

Meine Leidenschaft für elektronische Musik ist bis heute ungebrochen. Ich liebe es, neue Platten zu entdecken und sie direkt in meine Sets einzubauen.

Vor einiger Zeit habe ich begonnen, meine eigene Musik zu produzieren – die du hier regelmäßig findest.

Wenn du mich mal live an den Plattenspielern erleben willst: Schau gern auf meinem Twitch-Kanal vorbei – dort streame ich regelmäßig meine DJ-Sessions.

Danke fürs Vorbeischauen – viel Spaß mit meiner Musik!

Hey, I'm Marco – and I love electronic music.
I bought my first vinyl records back in the mid-90s. Not long after, I got my two Technics 1210 turntables – and they’re still spinning in my music room to this day.

My passion for electronic music hasn’t faded. I’m always digging for fresh tracks and love bringing new sounds into my DJ sets.

A while ago, I also started producing my own electronic music – which I regularly share here on SoundCloud.

If you’d like to see me live on the decks, check out my Twitch channel – I stream DJ sets there regularly.

Thanks for stopping by – enjoy the music!

Born in Kyiv and based in Toronto, Sashy is a DJ and music producer whose lifelong passion for sound and creativity has guided her across continents and genres. A classically trained pianist and songwriter, she even rapped as a teenager in an all-female band before moving to the United States for university and eventually settling in Canada.

Since relocating to Toronto in 2007, Sashy has immersed herself in the city’s vibrant electronic music scene. Music has remained her anchor through every chapter - from cross-continent moves to motherhood. During the isolation of her maternity leave in the pandemic, she rediscovered her creative spark and pursued her dream of becoming a DJ.

Her sound - blending Afro House, Progressive House, Melodic & Organic House - has earned international recognition, with her mixes featured on global stations such as Ibiza Stardust, Mix365, and Remix Radiofy.

In 2024, she expanded into production, with her debut Progressive House EPs reaching the Beatport Top 10. With more releases planned for 2025 and beyond, her journey as a producer continues to rise.

Beyond the decks, Sashy is a corporate event planner bridging business and music through her Flow State of Mind series - curating electronic sets that inspire creativity and focus.

Jen van Banks nutzte den pandemiebedingten Hausarrest, um ihren Traum vom DJing zu verwirklichen. Mit großem Erfolg: Sie gewann schnell eine wachsende Online-Community und beeindruckte auch etablierte Kollektive wie z.B. den Macher des "Das Kind in dir"-Podcast Daniel alias Müdebär. Dies führte zu aktuell über 90.000 Streams und 700 Followern auf SoundCloud. Live aufgelegt hat Jen unter anderem beim CSD Dresden und gab 2022 ihren ersten Clubgig im Electric Ballroom. Seit 2023 gehört sie zu deren Crew. 

Jen verfügt über eine tiefgründige Wahrnehmung ihrer Umgebung und Mitmenschen. Oft ist sie als stille Beobachterin unterwegs, besitzt aber auch eine lebhafte Seite. Diese beiden Facetten, ruhig und dynamisch, laut und leise, spiegeln sich in ihren melodischen und gefühlvollen Mixen wider, die mal mit Energie voranschreiten und an anderen Stellen von Feinfühligkeit getragen werden. Mit einem Schwerpunkt auf Melodic House & Techno sowie Progressive House, präsentiert Jen van Banks eine besondere Klanglandschaft, die ihre Online-Community immer wieder begeistert.

Am liebsten taucht Jen voll und ganz in ihre Musik ein, bevorzugt online. Live-Auftritte sind somit eine seltene Gelegenheit, Jen beim Auflegen erleben zu können.

A decade ago in the heart of a bustling music scene of Melbourne, a vision was born - to create a platform that would champion the voices of emerging artists, curate music that resonates, and build a community that transcends borders. Today, as we stand at the cusp of our 10th anniversary, we look back with pride at a journey filled with milestones, memories, and melodies.

Founded in 2014, Recovery Collective was not just built on the foundation of music but on the promise of opportunity. From our earliest days, we recognised the boundless potential in artists waiting for their breakout moment and provided them with the platform, resources, and guidance to shine. Our ethos has always been clear: to discover, nurture, and promote talent, ensuring that great music always finds its audience.

After working with over 120 artists on 130+ releases, our repertoire boasts diverse genres, innovative collaborations with artists and labels, along with tracks that have left an indelible mark on the music industry. 

From being awarded the position of Beatport's Top 3 label for 2020 (following revered Afterlife and Diynamic imprints), and 4th highest selling release of the year - along with a large portfolio of accomplishments and achievements since its inception - Recovery Collective has grown from a fledgling label to a global powerhouse.

Bringing together artists from all corners of the world, the label has championed artists from diverse backgrounds, enabling them to showcase their unique talents on a global stage. From Australia to Ukraine, Brazil, France, Lebanon and Thailand. We really have created a community of artists that today we are ever so proud of.

To celebrate a decade of operation, Recovery Collective will be embarking on a 10 Year Anniversary World Tour throughout 2024, seeking to revisit this incredible journey, bringing together our esteemed artists, dedicated fans, and the larger music community.

This tour will span multiple cities, each chosen for its unique connection to our label and its artists. Every showcase will be curated meticulously, reflecting the ethos of Recovery Collective while offering attendees an unforgettable musical experience.

To express your interest to be involved with the 'Recovery Collective 10 Year Anniversary World Tour' in 2024, please contact touring@recoverycollective.com.au.
