Naarm, Melbourne based DJ.
For almost 20 years, James Steer has consistently and unassumingly contributed to the after-hours soundtrack of Melbourne. Well respected within the underground Melbourne DJ community, James has built a reputation as a selector who deftly balances exquisite taste with technical execution. James cut his teeth as one of the founders of the legendary Deep Chord Melbourne parties in the early noughties, showcasing the emerging deep minimal sounds of the time to an eager and receptive audience. The party started off as an intimate affair in the confines of the upstairs space of Pony Bar (later Boney), before finding a true home in the legendary basement space of the Mercat Cross. Since then, James has regularly graced the decks at some of Melbourne’s most iconic nightspots, equally adept at delivering funk and disco laden suppertime soundtracks as heaving excursions into deep dance floor dynamics. Drawing from a vast, genre-defying collection, James’ sets offer the listener/dancer a guided tour through the fundamentals of depth, always evolving and never stagnant, a glimpse into the now, with a respectful nod to what’s come before.

Jocelyn Parry-Jones is an emerging lutruwita dj with an ear for the deep and quirky. Wriggling through techno and trance to sassy, playful and bent progressive house her performances are infused with the raw and powerful beauty of the Australian bush. 

Channeling vibes from Cousin, Forest Drive West, OK EG, Priori, Roza Terenzi, Sansibar, and Tifra, with a deep love for local labels like Butter Sessions, Animalia, and Moonshoe. 

Jocelyn recently supported her hero Rey Colino, head of Kalahari Oyster Cult, at a sold out warehouse party. Other gigs this year include Multiverse, little music party, Dark Mofo’s Night Mass, Natty Waves, Spicy Music, Junction Arts Festival, Revel Night Club and support for Wax'o Paradiso.
