written by the partae

Field Day will return to Sydney’s The Domain on Friday, 1 January 2027, with Major Lazer and Sub Focus leading the lineup for the New Year’s Day festival, alongside a third headliner that is yet to be announced.

Presented by Fuzzy, Field Day 2027 will take place on Gadigal Country and will feature three stages of dance music, with the festival also confirming the return of Casamigos Camp Ground, which is curated by the LGBTQIA+ community.

Major Lazer will return to Australia for the first time in 11 years. The group, comprising Diplo, Walshy Fire, Ape Drums and vocalist America Foster, will headline the festival alongside British DJ and producer Sub Focus and the currently undisclosed third headliner.

Major Lazer have built a catalogue spanning dancehall, reggae and electronic music, with tracks including “Lean On”, “Cold Water” and “Light It Up”. According to the festival announcement, 2026 has already seen the group perform at the Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony and return to Coachella for the first time in almost a decade.

Sub Focus will bring his drum & bass-focused sound to The Domain. His fourth studio album, Contact, features collaborations with Grimes, John Summit, Katy B and Fireboy DML, while the album’s lead single “Push The Tempo” reached number one on US dance radio.

The lineup continues with a substantial selection of international and Australian electronic artists.

Drum & bass figure Andy C joins the bill alongside Elderbrook, Boys Noize, Hannah Laing, Łaszewo, nimino, Funk Tribu, Julian Fijma, Joe Hunt, MPH, Oppidan and southstar.

Andy C, who co-founded RAM Records in 1992, has become one of drum & bass’s established names, while Elderbrook brings his multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter approach to the festival following the success of “Cola”, his Grammy-nominated collaboration with CamelPhat.

Boys Noize will also appear, following collaborations with artists including Skrillex and Frank Ocean and support of Nine Inch Nails during their Peel It Back tour across 2025 and 2026. Scottish DJ, producer and label boss Hannah Laing is also set to perform.

The Australian contingent includes Sydney artists Club Angel, Cassette, Stacie Fields, Disco Dora and Fried Pork Chop, alongside Melbourne duo 2charm and TANZER.

Club Angel joins the festival following headline shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, as well as international performances. Cassette, who founded Bodywork, will also bring her house-focused sound to the festival.

Melbourne duo 2charm will perform following the release of their debut album Star Scum City, produced by Ninajirachi. Stacie Fields, Disco Dora and Fried Pork Chop will add further Australian representation across the festival’s stages.

The Casamigos Camp Ground lineup includes 2charm, Disco Dora, Fried Pork Chop, Latifa Tee, Loosie Grind, TANZER and Tiddalicious, while the wider Field Day lineup features 2charm, Andy C, Boys Noize, Cassette, Club Angel, Disco Dora, Elderbrook, Fried Pork Chop, Funk Tribu, Hannah Laing, Joe Hunt, Julian Fijma, Łaszewo, Latifa Tee, Loosie Grind, MAD.DAY, MPH, nimino, Oppidan, southstar, Stacie Fields, TANZER, Tiddalicious, Tiff Cornish and Wolters.

Wiradjuri DJ duo Tiddalicious will also perform, with the festival announcement describing their sets as incorporating culture, community and storytelling.

Field Day has also announced a dedicated ticket initiative for 18–25-year-olds. A limited allocation of tickets will be available for $99.90 plus fees, with the initiative intended to improve access for younger festivalgoers.

The 18–25 ticket request period opens at 12pm AEST on Wednesday, 2 September and closes at 11:59pm AEST on Sunday, 6 September. Successful applicants will be selected through the Ticket Request process, with the ballot fulfilled on Monday, 7 September.

Presale tickets will become available from 12pm AEST on Wednesday, 9 September, followed by general ticket sales from 10am AEST on Thursday, 10 September. Field Day has confirmed that Moshtix is the official ticketing outlet.

The 2027 festival also forms part of a significant year for promoter Fuzzy, which is celebrating 30 years in the Australian music scene. Field Day has been held at The Domain for more than 25 years, with previous editions featuring artists including RÜFÜS DU SOL, The xx, Disclosure, Mark Ronson, Tame Impala, Solange, Flume and Dom Dolla.

Field Day 2027 will take place on Friday, 1 January 2027 at The Domain on Gadigal Country in Sydney.

INTERVIEW : SUPER HOTEL – CHECKING IN TO BRISBANE’S ALTERNATIVE COUNTRY ROCK SCENE

by the partae September 1, 2026
written by the partae

There’s a warm alternative country rock sound running through Super Hotel. How did you arrive at that sound?

Likely by taking those classic life roads of love and loss and letdowns, lol. So you get the country-style storytelling, but also a rejection of things sounding too ‘nice’ or ‘resolved’, hence the alternative rockin’.

Brisbane has a strong music community. How much has being part of that scene shaped the band?

It literally and figuratively has shaped the Hotel, in that we started writing songs with a small core group who were in previous bands together, then added members who we knew of from other projects within the Brizzo big band fam and who thereby suited/added to the style.

When a new Super Hotel song starts coming together, what usually sets it off?

One could say it starts with a riff, either musically or conversationally 😉

Do your songs change much once you start playing them in front of people?

Sometimes! We’re currently working on a song to record, and it’s been fun trying out different ways of playing it live and seeing how people react to those. #organic?

You’re playing 4ZZZ for Sounds Like Community Radio during BIGSOUND. What are you looking forward to about the day?

Playing in that beloved carpark and getting to meet some fellow community radio lovers! Stoked to see the wonderful Milly Strange play too <3

What’s something you’ve heard recently that’s made you want to get back into the studio?

Gary, our guitarist, has been absolutely rinsing Swapmeet’s new album, Mount Zero, and it’s got us all giddy to lush up the next Hotel songs with allll the bits.

If someone is discovering Super Hotel for the first time through this show, which song should they hear?

Go listen to our first single, Shaq Attack. We told you to watch out!

NOFX Release Official Soundtrack + Original Score For Career-Spanning Documentary ‘40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up’

by the partae September 1, 2026
written by the partae

Punk rock legends NOFX have officially released 40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up: Soundtrack + Score, the official musical companion to their career-spanning documentary 40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up.

The release is now available digitally, with the physical double LP set scheduled for October 2. The collection brings together an original score, new material, rare recordings and live performances spanning the band’s four-decade career.

The release features two distinct musical components: an 11-song original score composed by Fat Mike, alongside a 15-song soundtrack featuring material from across NOFX’s history.

Among the new material is “40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up”, alongside “We Did It Our Way”. The latter features a live performance recorded during NOFX’s final shows in San Pedro, California, in October 2024. The band is also releasing a live video for the track to coincide with the soundtrack’s arrival.

The collection also digs into the band’s archives, featuring six rare and previously unreleased recordings, including a demo of “Secret Society”, an early recording of “On The Road” from 1986 and NOFX’s take on “La Bamba”. Live versions of “Linoleum” and “NOFX” are also included.

The original score offers another perspective on Fat Mike’s songwriting, expanding the musical world surrounding the documentary beyond the band’s traditional punk-rock catalogue. The score was created by Fat Mike, with Matt Nasir also credited on the score.

Directed by James Buddy Day, 40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up documents the history of NOFX and features Fat Mike, Aaron “El Hefe” Abeyta, Eric Melvin and Erik Sandin. Fat Mike serves as producer, with members of the band among the film’s executive producers.

The documentary premiered at the 2026 SXSW Festival in March and has since continued its festival and theatrical run, including acceptance into the San Francisco International Film Festival and screening at the Cannes Film Market.

For the physical release, 40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up: Soundtrack + Score will arrive as a deluxe double LP accompanied by a 24-page retrospective photo book featuring rare and previously unseen photographs documenting the band’s 40-year history. The cover artwork was illustrated by Tokyo Hiro.

Following their farewell shows in 2024, the release provides another substantial chapter in NOFX’s recorded legacy — bringing together new music, archival material and live performances while serving as the musical counterpart to a documentary looking back across one of punk rock’s most enduring careers.

40 Years Of Fuckin’ Up: Soundtrack + Score is out now digitally, with the physical release arriving October 2, 2026.

Echoes of Us Set to Ignite Australia’s Electronic Music Scene This November

by the partae September 1, 2026
written by the partae

Australia’s electronic music calendar is set for a new addition this November, with ECHOES OF US making its Australian debut across Melbourne and Sydney.

Presented by Tang Events, the two-city electronic music event will bring together international names across Tech House, Minimal Tech and Techno alongside a strong contingent of Australian talent.

Leading the international line-up is SIDEPIECE, the Grammy-nominated American duo behind On My Mind, their collaboration with Diplo that received a nomination for Best Dance/Electronic Recording at the 2021 GRAMMY Awards.

German producer Marten Hørger joins the bill with more than 150 million global streams, festival appearances including Tomorrowland and EDC, and collaborations with artists including David Guetta, Alesso and Tchami.

Matroda also features prominently, with his distinctive matrodasound, Terminal Underground label and appearances at major festivals establishing him as a recognised name within contemporary Tech House.

Adding an Australian connection is Wax Motif, the Sydney-born, Los Angeles-based producer who has become one of Australia’s notable electronic music exports. Known as a key figure in G-House and contemporary House music, Wax Motif brings an established international presence to the Australian debut.

The international bill also features MALAA, recognised for his trademark masked identity and dark, bass-heavy sound, alongside emerging electronic act HILLS, who brings a genre-blending approach to the line-up.

Australian DJ and producer Coco Bevan leads the local supports, with the broader bill bringing together established international artists, influential electronic acts and emerging Australian talent from the Tech House, Minimal Tech and Techno community.

Beyond the music, the setting is central to the ECHOES OF US concept.

In Sydney, the event will take over White Bay Power Station, with the industrial landmark set to be transformed into a large-scale electronic music environment incorporating architecture, sound, lighting and production.

Melbourne will present the event beneath the Graham Street Bridge, giving the two events distinct physical identities while maintaining the same musical direction and production focus.

“ECHOES OF US has been created as a new electronic music concept focused on international artists, Australian talent, distinctive spaces and immersive production, with ambitions to establish a new presence on Australia’s electronic music calendar,” said Damian Chan of Tang Events.

The concept centres on bringing music and space together, creating an experience designed to extend beyond the traditional club or festival format.

ECHOES OF US arrives in Melbourne on Saturday 7 November 2026, followed by Sydney on Sunday 8 November 2026.

Melbourne
Saturday 7 November 2026
Under the Bridge – Graham St

Sydney
Sunday 8 November 2026
