Encompassing horns, synth, violin, vox and sax, Mortisville & Friends have garnered a completely unique style, fusing the driving power of techno and tech house with a canavalesque backdrop of live instrumentation. MAF have wowed crowds at festivals such as Rainbow Serpent, Glastonbury and Womad. 

Bursting onto the scene in 2012 at Rainbow Serpent, MAF have grown effervescently, making the 2am Saturday night slot on the Playground Stage their own. Described by Eamon Armstrong of fest300.com as having the ‘raucous energy of house party at the end of the universe’ they have flamboyantly mutated, harnessing a myriad of individual styles and throwing them into a celestial mixing pot of progressive good vibes. You will forget your woes; your strife and dance vivaciously till you ascend to another plane. Simply put, there is no other act in the world like right now like Mortisville & Friends.

The Dark Ales are an indie/alternative rock band founded by singer-songwriter Matt Ellis, one-time lead guitarist for queen of Aussie pop-rock Monique Brumby, along with drummer Dave McDonald. Equally referencing vintage rock, post-grunge and the psychedelic era, they blend blues, soul, rock and prog into sinister but beguiling melodies. With rich, chilling vocals and apocalyptic visions, they explore dark and thrilling aspects of the human condition.

Citing strong and diverse rock influences like Something for Kate, The Black Keys and Tool, the band features the gritty and energetic ballads of singer and guitarist Matt Ellis, with Sam Ellis on electric organ, Richard Grace on electric bass and Dave McDonald on drums. 

An independent four piece hailing from Melbourne, the band formed in July 2009, and has been bringing their large and unabashed rock style to the local scene ever since. The Dark Ales have been gigging around Melbourne for four years at popular venues like The Tote, The Old Bar and The Empress Hotel. They released their debut EP Edges of the Day in 2012, which was distributed to community radio via AMRAP and received radio play on over a dozen community radio stations around Australia.

They released a zombie-apocalypse themed film clip for the song Holding Patterns in December 2013, a re-mastered single from Edges of the Day. In February 2014, they released Everything (And Nothing), an advance single from an EP to be recorded later in 2014.
