This year, Rock Academy bands are preparing cover songs and co-writing original songs to be performed in front of family and friends at a final performance at MPavilion 2018. They definitely get loud!

Rampage 2019 Weekend
March 29 – 31, 2019
Antwerp, Belgium

Rampage is the biggest drum & bass and dubstep party in the world and it returns to the Belgian city of Antwerp from March 29th to 30th for the 10th anniversary of the event, with another monstrous line-up featuring the likes of Excision, Andy C, Sub Focus, Wilkinson, Dimension, Funtcase, Dion Timmer, DJ Hazard, Herobust, Murdock, Macky Gee, DJ Hype, Alix Perez, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, Dubloadz, Feint, Fox Stevenson, Koven, MC Mote, Spag Heddy, Tantrum, Desire, and tens more.
Always one of Europe’s biggest gatherings, the event successfully expanded to two days in 2018 and does so again this year with more than 30,000 people expected to attend each day, flying in from more than 55 different countries. To match the huge scale of the event, the line-up is equally giant with the biggest names in the scene, from fresh up and comers to enduring legends. Audio visual production is also out of this world and is part of the reason this event has become such a regular pilgrimage for drum & bass fans around the world.
All this goes down at The Antwerp Sportpaleis, one of Europe’s largest indoor spaces and one that becomes a mesmeric and immersive rave haven thanks to the light, lazer and visuals production that’s on the level of Tomorrowland, Awakenings and EDC, or even surpasses it.
Heading things up is Excision, the North-American producer who has become the most in-demand artist in the bass music world, largely thanks to an insane level of visuals and production, which he will all bring to Rampage. He has released on deadmau5’s mau5trap label but has mainly been pushing his music on his own imprint and in late 2018 he released his fourth studio album Apex. He’s been at the forefront of a musical revolution that has squashed all competition in North America and is bringing through tons of new artists.
Sub Focus and Wilkinson had a huge summer playing for Together in Ibiza so bring their widescreen bag of multi-genre tricks, Critical Music and Shogun Audio star Alix Perez is one of drum & bass’s most revered and stylistically hard to pin down producers and then come legends like DJ Hype as well as Ram Records boss Andy C who is a long time godfather of the scene, and DJ Hazard, a close Playaz and Ganja Records associate who has defined the scene for twenty years and played regularly at Fabric with the famous Playaz party. You can also look forward to hot young stars like Feint from Liquicity Records and Monstercatt, liquid, dubstep and house producer Fox Stevenson plus Funtcase, who played at Rampage 2018 and was one of the year’s standout acts.
For big bass look no further than Herobust from Mad Decent, while founding father Murdock brings his fresh club styles and jump up man Macky Gee is coming off the back of his fourth and most confident album to date. Tens more names like Dubloadz, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, Fox Stevenson, Benny L, Bredren, Bukez Finezt, Infekt, K Motionz, Muzzy, Signal and Skeptical all bring a broad array of styles to complete this famously supersized party, and these are not even half of all the acts that will be playing the Rampage 2019 Weekend.
The countdown is now on to Rampage 2019, which promises to be the biggest and best edition yet.

After the success of the very first overseas ‘Mobile Disco’ in Bali recently, Carl and Eric also just wrapped up a string of Australian & New Zealand Winery Tour Dates featuring the fabulous: Cece Peniston & Robin S! Where the Music Policy was strictly: Funk, Disco, Soul Grooves & Classic House!
From Carl & Eric:
“The Mobile Disco tour was fantastic this year, we absolutely love this event. It is an opportunity for us to dig into our record collection, play some of our most loved tracks, songs that were part of our growing up, songs that have influenced us over the years. It is a pleasure for us to share the music. This tour was a tour of ‘firsts.’ In Brisbane, we went to Roma Parklands for the first time, we also went to the Barossa Valley, Canberra and Queenstown, all for the first time. Each event was unique. For Brisbane, we were right in the city of the tiered levelled venue and it was fantastic, the crew definitely brought a huge vibe to the event! Queenstown, the adventure capitol, the weather a month out looked like it was going to be clear skies and sunny. Just three days out from NZ the weather (using the travel agent’s words) “looked horrific.” With multiple flight cancellations we finally caught a connecting flight (with little time in-between). The weather Gods were on our side and the worst of the Queenstown weather held off. Queenstown crew turned up and they were ready! It was cold with a bit of drizzle but you guys came prepared and we loved it. It was our first time in Canberra too and it was amazing! Set in the beautiful Botanical Gardens, we’d like to send a big thank you to the ‘Kicks Entertainment’ crew, for the great set up and a fantastic crowd. Finally, the last show of the tour was at the stunning Barossa Valley. As you know, we are the ‘Mobile Disco’ and move around, so it was a special venue in Seppeltsfield, what a history, the event space was placed right amongst the gum trees. Thank you to Seppeltsfield – SA, Cargo Brewery at Waitari Creek – Queenstown, Kicks Crew – Canberra and Brisbane Tourism/Marketing/Events and Parklands for making it a tour we won’t forget. Also, a huge thankyou to Robin S and Cece Peniston.
Melbourne, as you know it’s not possible to do a ‘Mobile Disco’ this coming February and we have had lots of messages asking if we could do another date. Well we have been working really hard to find another venue and get the permits through in time and we are happy to say that we have a city centre, green venue: Piknic Électronik at The Sidney Myer Music Bowl. This will be a thank you gig for all the Mobilizers that have supported us over the years, with a special priced ticket. We are going back to basics with Carl and Eric on the decks from the beginning to the end. See you on the Dancefloor!”

About event: Carl & Eric will be doing what they do best! Digging deep through their extensive record collections and picking out their favourite soul, funk and disco tracks that they were brought up with and tracks that have influenced them over the years. It’s a known fact that they have many gems in the archives!
‘Mobile Disco’ began in Melbourne, Australia with 150 of Carl & Eric’s closest friends. It’s gotten bigger each year with more friends & jazz, funk and disco loving fans coming along for the ride. ‘Mobile Disco’ is now a ‘Must Attend’ national tour playing to sold out boutique shows at some of the most picturesque locations across Australia.

Listen to Barricades HERE
The wonderfully fractured skank of Barricades starts off driven by an ominous piano riff hammered out via The Cat Empire’s keyboard master Ollie McGill that opens up into an ethereal vocal delivered by Harry Angus. The track then transforms into an urgent reggae funk with the rhythm section taking over before again breaking and heading back again into the ether. The band’s co-lead vocalist Felix Riebl shares, “Barricades is by far one of the most intricate and experimental songs on the album. On one hand it’s very, very dubby and hard hitting, then on the other it’s got this Miles Davis like quality to it with the horns on it. This is another fantastic track written by Harry that’s one of the heaviest on the album.”
The cover photo for Barricades showcases the work of Australian photographer Amy Mercer. The Sydney-based aerial and underwater photographer specialises in capturing the beauty of nature. The shot Summer Glisten was taken at Shelly Beach Rock Pool in January 2018 on a warm summer’s afternoon in Sydney’s south. Amy explains, “The beach lifestyle is a key element in Australian culture and is not only a place to take a dip, but a means of a rite of passage for any young Australian. It is a place to gather thoughts in times of crisis, a place to celebrate life and achievements; a place to socialise, exercise and relax; a place to overcome challenges and compete, a place to find solitude and love. It is no wonder that ocean living is an integral part of the country’s society.”
Open globally from now until January the 31st, 2019 the Stolen Diamonds pre-sale offer features a signed limited edition slip case for the CD version and a signed, die cut, limited edition sleeve for the vinyl version, complete with a limited run tote bag – perfect for completest collector fans. Fans can also pre-order the album as a Christmas gift for loved ones which includes delivery on December 25th of a note from the band, the first 6 singles already released and access to the January single a week in advance.
The Cat Empire have just wrapped up a mammoth European tour themselves which saw multiple sold out dates in various cities across the continent to rave reviews and including a live performance on Berlin TV which can be viewed HERE, and went out to 160million viewers. The band have returned for some special shows at home throughout December, ending the year at Woodford Festival and NZ Rhythm and Alps, and then into the New Year with 3 sold out shows at Melbourne Zoo.
With streams and YouTube views of the tracks and accompanying 360 video series released so far climbing into the millions, Stolen Diamonds is already shaping up to be one of the biggest chapters in the band’s career yet.

Led by the commanding vocal stylings of Amphlett and the whipsmart guitar vocabulary of McEntee, the Divinyls were a massive international success in the ‘80s-‘90s.
Managed early on by Bon Scott’s friend and collaborator, Vince Lovegrove, the Divinyls signed to the biggest-ever publishing deal with EMI America as the duo co-wrote hits such as Boys In Town, Only Lonely, Sleeping Beauty and the international hit, I Touch Myself, which charted at #2 on the US charts in 1991.
By this time the Divinyls were sharing management with Madonna and Michael Jackson. It was a deal that had stemmed from early and hard-earned American success, opening 1983’s iconic US Festival to over 150,000 people, being the focus of a double-page spread in the New York Times and touring with the heady likes of Aerosmith, The Ramones and The Cult.
While I Touch Myself was banned in certain parts of the world (including radio stations at home in Australia) it caused a stir with audiences as bras were raised at shows in salute and a new openness evolved in pop culture. The empowerment inspired by Amphlett was unstoppable and though she tragically passed away in 2013, she remains a feminine icon for then and now.
Throughout the band’s history, Mark McEntee impressed as a world-class songwriter and guitarist, and a highly-acclaimed musical arranger in the studio. He co-wrote I Touch Myself with Billy Steinberg (Like A Virgin, True Colors, Eternal Flame), had his song, Science Fiction, included in APRA’s ‘75th Anniversary Best 30 Australian Songs Of All Time’ and penned The Pretenders 1999 hit, Human On The Inside, for Chrissie Hynde. The Divinyls are inductees in the ARIA and Victorian Music halls of fame as proof that the songs will live on forever.
Feeling an organic need as a musician to perform the songs he co-wrote once again, McEntee will lead a major Divinyls tour in 2019. Joining him will be firebrand Baltimore-bred, LA-based singer/songwriter, Lauren Ruth Ward, original Blondie guitarist and Divinyls (1987-88) alumni, Frank Infante, and a cracking new Australian rhythm section featuring J Cortez and Malcolm Clarke to bring those hit tunes – from the heart and source – back to stages all over the world.
It’s time. And it’s also, as McEntee says, a Divinyls Mission.
See you on the road!
Divinyls

WAX WINGS – ‘GRAVEDANCE’ (REMIXES)
CLUB READY ‘GRAVEDANCE’ EP GETS RELOADED WITH FOUR INTENSE REMIXES
“GRAVEDANCE IS THE DEFINITION OF A PURE CLUB BANGER” – DJ MAG UK
LISTEN TO THE REMIX PACKAGE HERE
GRAVEDANCE REMIX EP LAUNCH PARTY TICKETS HERE
LABEL: THE WEIRD & THE WONDERFUL X SKINT
RELEASE DATE: OUT NOW
Wax Wings is an artist in the truest sense of the word from painting, fashion, graffiti, photography, art direction through to music. The young producer/DJ already has some impressive remix credentials under his belt including Maya Jane Coles’ Nocturnal Sunshine, Nimmo, The Presets, Eli & Fur and Vök, and has collaborated with artists such as Skunk Anansie’s Skin and Dead Can Dance’s Lisa Gerrard.
Holding a residency in London for the newly established, HE.SHE.THEY at Ministry Of Sound who’s mission statement is “A place without prejudice for people to be people”. Wax is allowed to fully express his musical style and lives up to DJ Mag’s ‘Ones To Watch for 2018’ tag, playing alongside acts such as Maya Jane Coles, Satoshi Tomiie and Ellen Allien. 2018 is shaping up to be one of his biggest years, having already played at the London Fashion Week Festival in February. Wax is lined up to play the opening party for this year’s IMS: Ibiza at Pacha, Ibiza. As well as dates at the world-famous Watergate, Berlin.
Ending 2017 in style, Wax Wings released his EP ‘Gravedance’ delivering six dancefloor focused weapons. This builds on the remarkable success of his first two EPs ‘System’ and ‘The Love Inside Me’ which gained strong support across the airwaves from the likes of BBC Radio 1’s B.Traits and Monki. He now returns with four intense remixes of the original cuts, reloaded and ready to go again.
Opening the EP Wax Wings leans on the talents of DJ/Producer & long-time friend ABSOLUTE. for the first of two remixes of ‘Gravedance’. Declared by Tiga as a ‘Future Star’, Absolute injects force and power into the original with a modulated bassline rippling throughout. Enlisting cultural provocateur Warboy for the second of those remixes, the underground veteran UK DJ/Producer offers up dominant basslines and theatrical hooks whilst retaining all the originals prominent vocal sample. Having played B2B with Wax Wings at the inaugural HE.SHE.THEY party, Warboy lends his experienced hand to the young producers Remix package.
D-Code & Psylence transform ‘Toxic Love’ from a straight down the line dark and tripped out Techno tool to a breakbeat injected groover, complete with dubby synth tones akin to the original. Completing the remix package is London based producer Venice Calypso, having previously remixed Wax Wings for his ‘The Love Inside Me’ EP. Sebastien is back with a driving remake of ‘Drunk’. Flipping the original and injecting the signature Venice Calypso, his version of ‘Drunk’ is primed for the dancefloor.
To celebrate the release Wax has joined forces with Warboy’s very own Friday nighter Shutdown at SEDITION (formally known as East Bloc) to throw a chaotic basement bash. Showcasing each remix artist and joined by a cast of experimental party makers and radical performers.
