Melbourne Music Week (MMW) is a nine-day celebration of the city’s thriving, world-renowned music scene. 

MMW 2016 runs from 11 to 19 November.

Driven by its vision as a uniquely Melbourne event – it’s the only event of its type in Australia – MMW teams up with a range of independent promoters, venues, labels and businesses to create a dynamic program that illuminates the connections between music, people and places. 

MMW has built a reputation for reimaging spaces for creative use, and each year has a different flagship venue, such as the Argus Building in 2012, the Former Royal Women’s Hospital in 2015, and this year the State Library Victoria. 

From intimate, interactive experiences in non-traditional venues to headline performances at Melbourne Town Hall, the program is a direct result of the depth and diversity of Melbourne’s creative music industry.

When it comes to house music, RaOuL isn’t just a name — he’s a living legend. A true OG of the Belgian scene, RaOuL has been igniting dance floors from the iconic Food Club in Leuven & Brussels to clubs across 127+ cities worldwide with his signature groove.
From dropping underground bombs with Swirl People, to hosting the trailblazing Switch show on Studio Brussel, and running the influential Aroma Recordings label, RaOuL has helped define the sound of Belgian house music for decades.
But the journey doesn’t stop there. Always evolving, RaOuL has launched a fresh new imprint: L.I.T.S Records — short for Lost In The Swirls — a nod to his roots and a bold leap into a future full of unexpected twists, fresh grooves, and boundary-pushing sounds.
His passion burns brighter than ever. If his house is smothered with funk, soul, or boogie, RaOuL’s in it, on it, and making you move. This isn’t just music. It’s a mission. It’s a vibe. It’s RaOuL.
