“Kaytranada: king of the beats” – DJ Mag
“Kaytranada’s beats flow like liquid gold, blurring lines between traditional genre boundaries and creating a soundscape that feels both familiar and revolutionary.” – Rolling Stone.
“Watching Kaytranada perform live is like witnessing an alchemist at work. He crafts a vibrant sonic landscape, layering beats and melodies with effortless precision while keeping the crowd dancing nonstop.” – Billboard.
Grammy-award-winning DJ and producer KAYTRANADA has announced he will bring his highly anticipated new live show “TIMELESS” to Australia in January 2025. Presented by Untitled Group, the tour will head to Sydney, Brisbane and Perth and surrounds his headline performance in Melbourne at AO LIVE.
The Australian leg of KAYTRANADA’s tour follows his recent North American dates, which included shows in cities such as Los Angeles, New York, San Diego, and Toronto. This tour will showcase his new live show, following the highly successful release of his third studio album, ‘TIMELESS’. The album, packed with collaborations from frequent partners like Tinashe, Anderson .Paak, Channel Tres, and Thundercat, is a tour de force of infectious grooves and dancefloor-ready beats. ‘Timeless’ reached #28 on the Billboard 200 and peaked at #2 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart.
Renowned for his fusion of hip-hop grooves, soulful R&B melodies, funky basslines, and experimental electronic beats, KAYTRANADA has claimed two Grammy wins, played multiple Boiler Rooms, and dominated renowned festivals such as Glastonbury and Coachella. Alongside this, KAYTRANADA has toured with artists such as Madonna and The Weeknd and produced for an array of incredible artists, including Chance the Rapper, Mary J Blige, Goldlink, Snoop Dogg, Alicia Keys, and many more.
Joining KAYTRANADA on this national tour as international special guests will be his collaborator Channel Tres as well as the incredible Lou Phelps and Kitty Ca$h.
KAYTRANADA’s Australian Tour, presented by Untitled Group, will feature his headline performance at AO LIVE on Friday 24 January.

Field Day, is set to make waves in 2025 with a lineup exclusively featuring 100% dance music!
All great things arrive in threes: Fairground Festival celebrates its third anniversary, on four amazing stages across three incredible halls of music
On November 30th, 2024, Northern Germany’s largest indoor festival returns to the Hanover Exhibition Center – with a fresh addition to the lineup in the form of a brand new hall delivering an incredible hard-style experience, and as always a true unique line-up.
October 29, 2024, Hanover, Germany – Last year, FAIRGROUND Festival made history for the second consecutive year. The Hanover-based indoor festival set a milestone throughout the German festival landscape, thanks to its pioneering ‘Live Acts Only’ concept.
The event welcomed 19,500 visitors from across 39 countries, offering every fan in attendance a unique full-weekend experience that boasted headline superstar DJs from across the electronic music scene.
Media partners including NDR and ARTE, helped broadcast the musical event to electronic music fans, families and friends who couldn’t attend, allowing them the opportunity of experiencing incredible performances from headline acts such as techno-wizard Paul Kalkbrenner, as well as the extraordinary Charlotte De Witte, who in the latest DJ Mag Top 100 poll, was voted the World’s No.1 Techno DJ 2024.
Other amazing headliners who created a historical FAIRGROUND Festival experience included Stephan Bodzin, Danish multi-hyphenate DJ superstar Kolsch, and the unforgettable CamelPhat.
Thanks to partners such as NDR and ARTE more than 2 million additional fans enjoyed the festival experience from the comfort of their own home via easy-to-access live streams.
And next month will be no different, FAIRGROUND Festival will be setting even greater standards for the third edition, when it returns to the Hanover Exhibition Center on November 30, 2024, by promising plenty of exciting and unmissable electronic festival innovations.
A festival expansion, a unique experience and a separate hall for 100% hard-style
Over the past two years, FAIRGROUND Festival has taken place in Hanover Exhibition Center Hall 2 and 3, however this year, due to unprecedented and our persuasive dedicated festival fans, Hall 4 will be added for the very first time. So this year, each individual stage will have both their own hall and their own area. We won’t be stopping there, as we fully expect the festival to grow and grow, and its all for you, our dedicated FAIRGROUND Festival fans.
In direct response to festival fan feedback, the Hard Style community has been given its own area, a huge stage, wider space and a brand new sound system – with the aim of creating a completely new festival experience.
No Friday Festival
In what will likely be disappointing news to some of our FAIRGROUND fans, this year’s 2024 festival will only take place over one day. This important decision was carried out in direct response to answers received from our FAIRGROUND Festival community survey carried out after last year’s incredible event.
“The community reaction as to whether Festival Friday should continue this year was 50/50. However, it quickly became clear to us that Friday could only be an option if the event had a strong, unique selling point, that resolutely met our high standards. And following a collective agreement, we don’t believe it can be achieved according to this year’s expectations. We would prefer to focus on strengthening, and expanding the Saturday festival, and hope our beloved FAIRGROUND community understand. We will, of course, re-evaluate the situation before the 2025 edition”, says Helge Peterknecht, Managing Director of HUNF GmbH and organizer of the FAIRGROUND Festival.
Additional news about FAIRGROUND Festival will be published during the next few weeks via WhatsApp and across the festival’s social media channels, so stay tuned.
An incredible line-up across four amazing stages: The first headliner has already been announced
Since first beginning in 2022, FAIRGROUND Festival has impressed with its eclectic line-up that is quite unparalleled within the German festival landscape. In 2024, the line-up will again be bulging at the seams, filled with top-class artists and superstars from multiple genres of electronic music. This has never-more-so been reflected in the line-up for the upcoming edition.
Requested by FAIRGROUND fans, high-tech minimal German genius BORIS BREJCHA will headline the festival main stage on Nov 30, joined by superstars OLIVER HELDENS, as well as rising star MARLON HOFFSTADT.
Belgian techno-goddess CHARLOTTE DE WITTE, fresh from her DJ MAG TOP 100 success, returns to FAIRGROUND Festival Main stage for the third year in a row – and it feels as if this could be a new DJ residency for the talented KNTXT label founder.
In addition: A B2B world premiere with ARGY and GORDO, as well as hugely talented DJs, ALFRED HEINRICHS and PROPHECY.
The line-up doesn’t end there, as we welcome Italian techno-groundbreaker Deborah De Luca, the unquestionable leader of the hard-techno movement Klangkuenstler, as well as legendary Berghain resident Kobosil, as one of the techno stage headliners.
They will be joined by headline superstars (A-Z) AKKI, BEN KLOCK b2b MARCEL DETTMANN, DANNY AVILA & HI-LO.
The Hard Style stage lineup teases a glimpse of an incredible and unforgettable festival experience. As well as the iconic BRENNAN HEART, hard style fans can look forward to BASS MODULATORS, COONE, KORSAKOFF X, HYSTA, RADICAL REDEMPTION & HIS ORCHESTRA OF ETERNITY, ROOLER, SEFA, SUB ZERO PROJECT and VILLAIN.
A special highlight for Hard Style fans is the exclusive premiere of Radical Redemption, who will be playing his one and only ‘Orchestra of Eternity’ show this year.
Another new addition for this year is our hugely-anticipated fourth stage, which was created in cooperation with Hanover-based event brand Outside World and regional mobile. Inspired by the unforgettable music of the time, the Classic Techno stage welcomes era-defining icons of the 90s and 00s, who will be delivering unforgettable, decade-shaping, techno-hymns with a fresh modern new taste.
CLASSIC TECHNO lineup (A-Z) FRANKY JONES (JONES & STEPHENSON, JAM EL MAR, KAI TRACID, MAURO PICOTTO, NALIN & KANE, OSW BY REVIL O., THOMAS SCHUMACHER and TOM WAX.

South Coast duo SURELY SHIRLEY named as Australian tour supports for INFINITY SONG (US)
Australian audiences will soon be able to enjoy the full Infinity Song experience when the band makes their debut appearances on the East Coast this summer with special guests just announced, SURELY SHIRLEY.
South Coast NSW sisters Jenaya and Anisha – aka SURELY SHIRLEY – will join the tour, starting in Brisbane at The Brightside on December 6, before hitting The Nightcat in Melbourne and Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory.
In 2024, the beloved New York soft rock/R&B group reached new heights with the release of their much-anticipated album, Metamorphosis Complete, a record that beautifully tied up the ‘Metamorphosis’ era for the band, while also showcasing new material for fans to devour.
Surely Shirley brings a coastal vibe coupled with a fusion of indie pop that evoke ‘60s ballads and rhythms. Surely Shirley have been making an impact since debuting in 2023 with their single ‘Honeymoon Island’.
‘Honeymoon Island’ spurred the quick development of a loyal fanbase across the country and a live presence that has seen the girls support artists including Pacific Avenue, The VANNS and Meg Mac, making Surely Shirley a great fit for the upcoming Infinity Song tour.
These shows are sure to leave an unforgettable impression on Australian audiences; Infinity Song themselves drawing comparisons to groups like Fifth Dimension and ABBA.

About Logic1000
Logic1000 is the moniker of Sydney born, Berlin based producer and DJ Samantha Poulter. Her unique production process conjures concepts, genres, samples, hyper-accurate digital synths, and disembodied textures.
In 2023 Logic experienced a surge of creativity when she became a mother and felt compelled to create something powerful despite her limited time, which led to the release of Mother in March 2024, her debut album with Because Music. Describing the album as a “love letter to house music,” it blends genres like Deep House, UK Funky, and Garage and reflects her creative evolution and personal journey into parenthood, a milestone she never imagined achieving and one that she chronicles across her podcast ‘Therapy’ featuring guests including Jayda G, Anna Lunoe and Jamz Supernova. The album saw high praise from the likes of Mixmag (Best of 2024) DJ Mag (Album of The Month), Sydney Morning Herald, Guardian, Sunday Times, Billboard and Resident Advisor.
Poulter’s career began in her late 20s when she produced music inspired by her dissatisfaction with the current scene. Her breakthrough came with the track ‘DJ Logic Please Forgive Me,’ championed by Four Tet, which propelled her from making songs on SoundCloud to playing at large festivals and remixing the likes Dua Lipa, Don Toliver, Shygirl and Caribou.
Now confident in her roles as an artist and mother, Poulter reclaims her space in the music world. She has set herself on a path for delivering music that is open-hearted and irresistibly melodic, house music that speaks directly to what it is to be human.

About William Kiss
Melbourne’s producer and DJ William Kiss has a firm foothold on his signature house and techno sound, having signed his most successful tracks on Gudu, Rekids, UNCAGE, Club Bad, Bush and Carl Cox’s 23rd Century. Clocking up over 5 million streams across his catalogue and driving clubs and stages across Australia, Asia and Europe – with standout sets at institutions like Watergate, Pike’s Ibiza, and staple festivals such as Beyond The Valley and Sundancer.
With a decisive focus on percussive elements, undertones full of groove, rumbling baselines and main floor hooks, William creates music for the masses with classic electronic endurance. Stemming from a percussion-based background, the complexities and the sometimes-understated simplicities of techno hues have always struck a chord with him, fascinated by the raw power conveyed through basic elements. Drawing influence from all ends of the musical spectrum, William Kiss maintains the relentless passion and drive to create, with a highly anticipated slew of forthcoming releases via pioneering local and international labels.
