To Octavia share single “What’s My Name?” off upcoming debut album ‘MELODRAMA’

by the partae September 9, 2025
written by the partae

Melbourne alternative rock group To Octavia return with a fire in their belly on their attitude-packed new single “What’s My Name?“, off their debut album, MELODRAMA, which will be released Friday October 31.

“What’s My Name?” captures the trademark To Octavia sound juxtaposing heavy with melody while channeling their frustrations at the state of the world, confronting the destructive ways people treat one another and the fallout when someone is pushed too far. The track follows on from previous releases “Talk Is Cheap” and “bury me.”, which together have clocked over 150,000 Spotify streams and earned global coverage, alongside national exposure with a Channel 7 Thursday Night Football spin.

All three leading singles have showcased the darker, heavier direction To Octavia are embracing on MELODRAMA, building on their genre-blending roots with the harsher energy of their earlier work, now delivered with more conviction. The album is produced, mixed and mastered by longtime collaborator Chris Lalic (Windwaker, RinRin), with accompanying music videos directed and edited by Colin Jeffs of Ten of Swords Media.

With the release of their first single “bury me.”, To Octavia welcomed new guitarist Nav Jay to the lineup, officially joining the fold alongside Merry Kirk-Holmes (vocals) and brothers Justin Keurntjes (guitar) and Lucas Keurntjes (drums) as they charge into the year with a full release waiting in the wings.

Best known for their mix of metal, pop, and electronic elements, To Octavia earned national recognition with their breakout EP Somewhere in a World, Not of the Dream‘ scoring play across triple j and being named a triple j Unearthed Feature Artist. Since then, the band have released their 2023 EP Wonderland, selling out multiple hometown shows, touring nationally, and performing at acclaimed festivals like UNIFY Gathering, BIGSOUND 2022, and Yours & Owls (cancelled due to NSW floods).

The band’s profile rocketed further when SEGA tapped vocalist Merry Kirk-Holmes to write and perform the main theme for the global video game hit Sonic Frontiers, a testament to their creative reach beyond the traditional heavy space. To Octavia continue on their path as one of Australia’s most forward-thinking acts in alternative music. Their past releases have scored support from Rage, MTV Upload, Channel 7 AFL, and multiple triple j programs, and have collectively amassed over a million Spotify streams.

“What’s My Name” is out now and streaming everywhere, MELODRAMA will be available Friday October 31.

November 13 & 14
25hours Hotel, One Central
Beatport Presents IMS Dubai lands back in the MENA region for a two-day takeover at 25hours Hotel One Central.

Gearing up for its highly anticipated second edition, Beatport Presents International Music Summit (IMS) Dubai, officially announces its first round of speakers, topics, and evening event partners.

Hosted by IMS co-founder and legendary BBC Radio 1 Broadcaster Pete Tong alongside Saudi-born and UK-based DJ, producer, and presenter Nooriyah, Beatport Presents IMS Dubai today announces its first speakers and keynote participants. Global superstar HUGEL joins the summit as a keynote speaker, alongside Lebanese-British techno sensation Nicole Moudaber, Bedouin made up of Jordanian Tamer Malki and Egyptian-American Rami Abousab, Egypt’s beloved house maestro Misty, Lebanese heavyweight Rolbac, ADDMIND’S managing partner Elie Saba, The Beatport Group’s CCO Sofia Ilyas, Meta’s Strategic Partner Manager Samer Jamal, and Factory People’s co-founder and resident DJ Jade. The summit will also host the MENA premiere of the new film from legendary Northern Irish duo Bicep, TAKKUK.
Pete Tong says – “The launch of Beatport Presents IMS Dubai last year showed just how much energy, creativity and ambition exists in our community in the SWANA region. Electronic music here is on an exciting upward trajectory, creatively, culturally, and as an evolving market with exciting opportunities for growth and collaboration. I’m thrilled to return and co-host alongside Nooriyah. Beatport Presents IMS Dubai provides the perfect backdrop to bring our values to life while showcasing and celebrating the amazing music and talent emerging from the region.”
Summit Content & Key Themes
IMS Dubai’s second edition will tackle the most pressing issues shaping the global and regional industry.

It will also mark the launch of the MENA Women in Music mentorship scheme powered by Little Pink Book, a platform that spotlights female talent & women in music through events, panels, and showcases.

Nooriyah says – “I’m so excited to be joining Beatport Presents IMS Dubai as co-host this year alongside Pete Tong. The SWANA region is one of the most inspiring places in electronic music right now, full of creativity and growth. This summit provides a platform to celebrate incredible artists, amplify the voices of the region, and create meaningful connections that will help shape the future of our culture across SWANA and beyond.”
As day turns to night, delegates will experience Dubai’s nightlife across the city. Highlights include Beatport Live at Monkey Bar on 13th November and partner events at Ushuaïa Dubai Harbour Experience, Surf Club, Be Beach, Reunion, and Helipad from Wednesday 12th – Sunday 16th November, cementing IMS Dubai as a true citywide takeover.

THE LAST DINNER PARTY ANNOUNCE WORLDWIDE TOUR AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND – JANUARY 2026 TICKETS ONSALE 10AM LOCAL TIME, FRIDAY 12 SEPTEMBER SIGN UP FOR PRESALE

by the partae September 4, 2025
written by the partae

The Last Dinner Party are pleased to announce details of a huge headline tour that spans the UK and Europe, with a major run of Australia and New Zealand shows confirmed for January 2026.

The 35-date run kicks off with a UK/Ireland run which starts at Dublin’s 3Arena on 14th November and concludes with two nights at O2 Academy Brixton in London on 7th and 8th December. The band then heads to Australia in January for shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth, then to Auckland and on to Europe in February.

The Last Dinner Party release their second album, From The Pyre, on 17th October 2025 via Island EMI. Watch the video for  album’s lead single, “This Is The Killer Speaking” HERE/ below.

The Last Dinner Party – This Is The Killer Speaking (Official Video)

The London five-piece headed into the studio early 2025 with Grammy Award winning producer Markus Dravs (Wolf Alice, Florence & The Machine, Bjork) to start work on the follow-up to their number 1 debut album, 2023’s Prelude to Ecstasy. From The Pyre is the sound of a band having a lot of fun rather than feeling any innate pressure to follow-up on what was an explosively successful debut record. It’s also the sound of a young band developing and maturing their songwriting together, as tight a unit as the endless months out on the road pay testament to.

Speaking about the LP, the band said: “This record is a collection of stories, and the concept of album-as-mythos binds them. ‘The Pyre’ itself is an allegorical place in which these tales originate, a place of violence and destruction but also regeneration, passion and light.

“The songs are character driven but still deeply personal, a commonplace life event pushed to pathological extreme. Being ghosted becomes a Western dance with a killer, and heartbreak laughs into the face of the apocalypse. Lyrics invoke rifles, scythes, sailors, saints, cowboys, floods, Mother Earth, Joan of Arc, and blazing infernos. We found this kind of evocative imagery to be the most honest and truthful way to discuss the way our experiences felt, giving each the emotional weight it deserves.”

“This record feels a little darker, more raw and more earthy; it takes place looking out at a sublime landscape rather than seated an opulent table. It also feels metatextual and cheeky in places, like a knowing look reflected back at ourselves.”

With two BRIT Awards to their name (including Breakthrough Artist earlier this year), and having sold out virtually every show they played right across the globe (including three sold-out hometown shows at London’s Eventim Apollo), The Last Dinner Party’s arrival and subsequent worldwide success was one of the most thrilling introductions to a new British band in decades, and From The Pyre’s opening introduction suggests that unparalleled success story shows no signs of relenting.

Pre-order From The Pyre here.

Tickets for Australian and New Zealand tour dates will be on sale from 10am local time on Friday 12th September.

Secret Sounds members can access tickets via presale from 10am local time Thursday 11 September. Sign up for presale access now via secretsounds.com

BOY & BEAR SHARE DOUBLE A-SIDE SINGLE AND VIDEOS ‘WHERE DOES LIFE BEGIN’ / ‘VERTIGO’ + ANNOUNCE BIGGEST HEADLINE SHOW EVER AT THE SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE FORECOURT IN DEC

by the partae September 3, 2025
written by the partae

An exciting new chapter for beloved indie alternative act Boy & Bear unfurls, with the group powerfully returning armed with a double A-side single and videos, Where Does Life Begin and Vertigo. Launching an ambitious new era via this new material, Boy & Bear balance optimism with introspection, with lead single Where Does Life Begin embracing a yearning for the freedom of youth. And bolstering the Boy & Bear magic today, this double A-side release comes accompanied by the announcement of the band’s biggest headline show to date, set to take the iconic Sydney Opera House Forecourt by storm this December, joined by special guests Hollow Coves and Darcie Haven. 

Tickets for Boy & Bear’s Sydney Opera House Forecourt show are on sale now from https://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/on-the-steps/boy-and-bear

Balancing dreamy indie pop hues on Where Does Life Begin with more upbeat and hopeful vibes via Vertigo, Boy & Bear’s trademark nostalgic, vintage pop sound vividly transforms on their new double A-side, with inspiration for both tracks also steeped in reflection in their own unique respective ways, and anchored in real-life experiences, as vocalist and guitarist Dave Hosking elaborates, “The inspiration for Where Does Life Begin came from my own personal experiences. The song is about yearning for the freedom of youth. Sometimes the passing of time changes us in a way where we can feel like we’ve lost a part of ourselves. I think on some level I miss the naivety I once had about the world. In our 20’s we seem less inhibited and more confident about what’s in front of us, but the realities of life can eventually start to catch up with us. I liked the simplicity of the idea of watching people dancing from afar and feeling like maybe I no longer belonged there”.

“I’m interested in painting a mood with lyrics and melody,” Hosking continues, “not being too specific or literal but leaving room for interpretation, and I feel that Vertigo is a good example of this. That said, Vertigo explores the awkwardness of life and time and change. We grow up, but on some level we can still feel like children – we really don’t know anything at all – but maybe that’s also okay? I really wanted to explore this concept in a light-hearted way. On some level it’s also about embracing these moments in our lives with a sense of humour and openness.”

Starting the journey towards their new material at the tail end of their North American tour late last year, Boy & Bear stayed on for a week in Los Angeles post-tour, collaborating with musician and producer Justin Stanley (Prince, Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, Beck) at Stella Sound Studios. “We really hit it off with Justin and the new album was born,” says bassist Dave Symes. “Justin then came to Australia in February, and we made the album all together in our newly built studio in Marrickville, Sydney’s Inner West”. 

And introducing the first peek into the upcoming new Boy & Bear era today via Where Does Life Begin and Vertigo, the band also worked to conjure equally evocative accompanying official videos for each the tracks, as explained by their creative director Jeremy Koren  (Grey Ghost / Ghostie Studios), “”In a sea of inauthenticity we wanted to slap the face of the viewer with nostalgia via a montage of images on images using a variety of 80 – 90’s broadcast cameras and 8mm film and Hi-8. Countryside, eating sandwiches by rivers, playing guitar in a phone booth, dancing on your own with headphones on, stunning surrounds but the grey suits offsets and ground the video. We aim to not be too literal with this one, but give the sense that the group of suited men are on a journey, constantly moving through this endless maze.”

Expertly versed in balancing personal experiences with universal themes, alongside their own trademark blend of vintage pop, alternative elements and folk edges, Boy & Bear channel nostalgia into charming and captivating sonic journeys. Already in command of a staggering level of staying power most artists could only dream of, Boy & Bear took the world by storm via their 2011 debut album Moonfire, snagging five ARIA award wins, including Best Group and Album of the Year, and reaching double-Platinum status. From there, 2013’s Harlequin Dream and 2015’s Limit of Love further stamped Boy & Bear’s stalwart presence on a global scale, with both albums charting at #1, and Harlequin Dream also marking the band’s second studio album to be certified Platinum. Between 2019’s Suck on Light through to their most recent full-length release, 2023’s self-titled, both records reached top 10 in the charts, and Boy & Bear have continued to cultivate a legion of fans across the globe, with over half a billion streams, five consecutive top 10 albums and a horde of unforgettable live performances in their wake. 

Renowned for their uniquely compelling live shows, and fresh off the back of selling the most headline tickets of their career globally, Boy & Bear are now set to cement their powerful return in 2025 in a live setting alongside their new material, with their biggest headline show to date set to take place on December 14, performing on the steps at the iconic Sydney Opera House Forecourt with special guests Hollow Coves and Darcie Haven.  

“It’s very exciting for us!” enthuses Dave Symes. “It will be a special moment to release the new album at this show, and get to play some of the singles from us… We always like to play songs from all of our albums and make a nice journey for our audiences so there will be a good mix of old and new, and hopefully some special guests.”

In the meantime, the ambitious new chapter for Boy & Bear officially launches into the world today, encompassing triumph, movement and optimism along with haunting-yet-cathartic melancholy and introspection via their double A-side, Where Does Life Begin and Vertigo. And, as the band concludes, these new tracks are the beginning of something truly special as the group turn their gaze to a brand new album ahead. 

“It feels very exciting. I never get tired of releasing new songs into the wilderness. Of course, there are a few nerves but generally speaking it’s nice to have a new chapter of music out there.” 

“In regards to the double A-side, we decided to do it because it allowed us to show some different aspects of the record straight off the bat. We wanted people to get a sense that this record is multilayered and hopefully get excited by that.”

Boy & Bear are also releasing the Double A Side on a very limited edition ‘Double A Side Flame Yellow 7″ Vinyl’ that is available through their website https://www.boyandbear.com

TuneCore’s key role in curating the final batch of lineup

This year, TuneCore played a pivotal role in shaping the final lineup, expanding its position as one of AXEAN Festival’s most important partners. Through a four-month, multi-stage submission and rigid selection process spanning five countries in Southeast Asia, TuneCore helped discover and elevate standout independent voices that have made a mark in their niche markets. 

Cyrus Chen, Head of TuneCore Southeast Asia, recalls the selection process that they went through before picking the finest acts that show global potential. “It began with open biweekly submissions, attracting over 600 entries,” Cyrus explains. “Selected artists progressed to monthly live showcases at local venues, with each monthly winner advancing to country finals. Out of the 27 finalists, our local panels chose the six artists performing at AXEAN. The biggest surprise was probably the incredible depth of undiscovered talent. We found remarkable hidden gems across diverse and often genre-blending styles. What was particularly striking was how many of these artists hadn’t formally released music yet.”

When asked about the criteria in picking the artists who made it to TuneCore’s AXEAN stage, Cyrus emphasised the importance of authenticity and range, and how beyond raw talent, there’s a need to prioritise artists whose music authentically integrates local flair and cultural influences. “Showcasing a diverse spectrum of genres was also essential,” he adds.

For their part, the top global distribution and label services company, along with AXEAN Festival, promises to use their platform to foster real-world opportunities, apart from empowering artists digitally. “We actively nurture talent by providing platforms for exposure, facilitating live performance experience at scale (from local venues to major festivals), educational opportunities (workshops and masterclasses to up-skill artists), and connecting artists directly with new audiences and industry stakeholders across borders. We go beyond distribution to open doors for market access and career growth that are often out of reach for independent artists.”

The Orchard-AXEAN Festival partnership

The Orchard, a prominent music distribution company operating in over 49 cities worldwide, has expressed its support for AXEAN Festival through a strategic partnership. Both music entities share a vision of empowering artists to broaden their horizons and access new music markets beyond their turfs. Together, both AXEAN and The Orchard are keen on dismantling barriers and enabling Southeast Asian creative communities to showcase their music on a global stage.

As Prahlad Prabhas, The Orchard’s Senior Director, Southeast Asia, explains it, “This [collaboration] aligns perfectly with The Orchard’s philosophy of helping artists grow outside their home markets. We’re thrilled to be part of that journey this year by sponsoring a stage. For us, it’s more than just about the music—it’s about celebrating the creativity and energy of this region and sharing it with the world.”

About AXEAN Festival

The AXEAN Festival is a prominent Southeast Asian music export platform, combining a music conference and showcase festival. Launched in 2020 during the pandemic by music professionals across Southeast Asia, AXEAN Festival has successfully hosted both virtual (2020-2021) and in-person (2022-2024) events. Over five editions, it has featured 200 artists from 20 countries, attracted 240 delegates from 32 countries, and reached over 46,000 virtual viewers, along with close to 15,000 live attendees. With its growing international reputation, AXEAN has firmly established itself as Southeast Asia’s leading music export platform.

written by the partae

After huge anticipation, Beyond The Valley, Australia’s largest multi-day music festival, has revealed its monumental 10th anniversary lineup.

Headliners for this year’s edition include global dance music powerhouse Dom Dolla, who will deliver the coveted New Year’s Eve countdown performance. Joining him will be pop culture phenomenon Addison Rae, pioneering hip-hop visionary Kid Cudi, returning to Australia for the first time in over a decade, as well as rule-breaking punk force Turnstile.

Beyond The Valley’s milestone edition will also feature Spacey Jane, I Hate Models, KETTAMA, Chris Stussy, Ben Böhmer, The Temper Trap, Luude, JoJo (Australian exclusive), 070 Shake, DJ HEARTSTRING, VTSS, SWIM, Pegassi, Channel Tres, Balu Brigada, Fcukers, Jane Remover, Miss Kaninna, and much more.

Presented by Untitled Group and triple j, and supported by Visit Victoria, the festival returns to the stunning Barunah Plains from 28 December to 1 January, promising the biggest celebration in its history.

Since its inception, Beyond The Valley has set the standard for world-class music and festivals in Australia, uniting tens of thousands each summer across four days of unforgettable music, distinctive stage designs, and unparalleled festival experiences.

LINEUP:

Dom Dolla storms onto the Beyond The Valley lineup following a record-breaking year that has seen him headline two sold-out Madison Square Garden shows, ignite crowds at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Miami, and launched a 10-week Hï Ibiza residency. With over a Billion streams, a Grammy nomination, three ARIA Awards, and hits like “Dreamin’” (feat. Daya), “Forever” (with Kid Cudi) and his cinematic debut “No Room For A Saint” from the F1: The Movie soundtrack, he continues to cement his place as one of the world’s most in-demand electronic artists. Following the announcement of his biggest ever Australian headline show at Sydney’s Allianz Stadium this December, Dom Dolla now confirms his homecoming at Beyond The Valley, where his New Year’s Eve countdown performance will be one of the most anticipated moments in the festival’s history.

Making her Australian festival debut, songwriter, actress and cultural phenomenon Addison Rae’s debut album Addison, released in June, delivered viral hits “Diet Pepsi,” “Headphones On”, “Fame Is A Gun”, and “Aquamarine,” instantly receiving widespread acclaim from both critics and fans and cementing her status as a trendsetter in modern pop.

Addison’s artistry and undeniable charisma have positioned her as one of the defining voices and faces of her generation.

A pioneer of alternative hip-hop, Kid Cudi makes his first Australian appearance in over a decade. The artist first broke through with 2008’s A Kid Named Cudi and multiple global hits, including “Day ’n’ Nite” and “Pursuit Of Happiness”. His Man on the Moon albums became modern classics, blending introspection with genre-bending innovation. With over 22 million U.S. units sold and two Grammys won, Kid Cudi returns to Australia to once again leave his undeniable mark.

This year’s lineup will also bring enigmatic live performers including, neo-soul talent Kaiit, BOY SODA, alongside 49th & Main, Mallrat, glaive, EGOISM, DICE, The Tullamarines, Sex Mask, Chloe Parché and more.

Melbourne’s Dr Esmé Louise James brings her TikTok acclaimed kinky history lessons with a dose of her signature sense of humour. Sez, comedian, musician, writer, content creator and producer, injects sharp Gen Z humour into every mic drop. Tune into 200 Plus, (literally) some of the biggest names in footy, Sam Draper, Nick Butler and Charlie Comben give a light-hearted view from the tall towers of the sport. Ash McGregor, known for expanding triple j’s Home & Hosed show and amplifying Australian music’s diverse voices, brings her fierce passion and upfront music insights while David The Medium, Australia’s most highly rated clairvoyant and spiritual medium, tunes in beyond the ordinary with an incredibly uncanny connection. Teach Us Consent will welcome open conversations about relationships, respect and affirmative consent across the programming.

QUOTES:

Quote from Nicholas Greco – Cofounder & Managing Partner of Untitled Group:
“Ten years ago, what BTV is now, we’d never have thought possible. It’s become a rite of passage for so many, and we’re proud to create a space where people can discover new artists, share unforgettable moments, and ring in the new year with friends.

We’re so excited to finally share what we’ve been working on for our 10th edition of Beyond The Valley. This year’s lineup is our biggest yet, bringing back familiar faces while welcoming first time performances.”

by the partae August 21, 2025
written by the partae

Brisbane – January 1st (New Year’s Day), 2026 – Brisbane Showgrounds
Perth – January 3rd (Saturday), 2026 – Arena Joondalup

Presented by Untitled Group, Beyond The Valley and triple j, Wildlands Festival has unveiled its lineup for 2026, promising a day of world-class performances and unforgettable summer energy.

Headlining this year’s events in Brisbane and Perth are global dance music powerhouse Dom Dolla, songwriter, actress and cultural phenomenon Addison Rae and alternative hip-hop visionary Kid Cudi.

This year’s colossal roster also features Chris Stussy, KETTAMA, Luude, 070 Shake, Balu Brigada, Cassian, Channel Tres, Fcukers, Miss Kaninna, NOTION, sim0ne, and more, bringing together global pop icons, electronic powerhouses, and the hottest rising acts.

Dom Dolla joins the Wildlands lineup with huge momentum following a record-breaking year that has seen him headline two sold-out Madison Square Garden shows, ignite crowds at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Miami, and launched a 10-week Hï Ibiza residency. With over a Billion streams, a Grammy nomination, three ARIA Awards, and hits like “Dreamin’” (feat. Daya), “Forever” (with Kid Cudi), plus his cinematic debut “No Room For A Saint” from the F1: The Movie soundtrack, he continues to cement his place as one of the world’s most in-demand electronic artists. After the announcement of his biggest-ever Australian headline show at Sydney’s Allianz Stadium this December, Dom Dolla is set to deliver a performance that will undoubtedly go down as one of the festival’s most iconic moments.

Fresh off the release of her acclaimed debut album Addison, delivering viral hits “Diet Pepsi,” “Headphones On”, “Aquamarine”, and “Fame Is A Gun”, songwriter, actress and cultural phenomenon Addison Rae has transformed from viral video sensation to boundary-pushing pop artist. Addison has amassed over 88 million followers on TikTok, with over 5.8 billion likes, and 34 million followers on Instagram. The pop phenomenon’s artistry and undeniable charisma have positioned her as one of the defining voices and faces of her generation. Addison Rae will take to the Wildlands stage, bringing her hypnotic blend of nostalgia and innovation to Brisbane and Perth.

Making his first Australian appearance in over a decade, Kid Cudi joins the Wildlands stage as one of alternative hip-hop’s most visionary forces. From his breakout hit “Day ‘n’ Nite” to the genre-defining Man on the Moon trilogy, Cudi’s raw, introspective storytelling has inspired a generation. With over 22 million units sold, multiple Grammy wins, and a global reputation as a trailblazer, his return will be a landmark moment for Australian fans.

A driving force in global house music, Chris Stussy celebrates five years of his acclaimed label Up The Stuss in 2025, fresh off a sold-out London debut for his USS event series and a peak-time Coachella Yuma set. With #1 Beatport releases, standout remixes for Moby and Todd Terry, and festival appearances from Lowlands to Creamfields, Stussy’s deep, minimal, and precision-crafted sound will make his Wildlands debut one to remember.

Genre-bending and emotionally charged, 070 Shake has carved a unique path across emo-rap, atmospheric R&B, and cinematic alt-pop. Off the back of her latest album Petrichor, she has received great acclaim for her immersive, genre-defying vision. After a string of acclaimed European festival performances in 2025, she’s set to deliver an unforgettable Wildlands debut.

KETTAMA, whose track ‘Pretty Green Eyes’ (Sunset Ibiza Mix) featured in the second video released across Wildlands socials earlier in the week, will unleash his hard-hitting house sound, with a BBC Radio 1 Dance Residency coming in 2025 and his “It Gets Better (Forever Mix)” making big waves on charts around the world. Grammy-winning producer Cassian, known for collaborations with RÜFÜS DU SOL, Anyma, and Dom Dolla, brings his genre-defining melodic house and techno mastery to the lineup.

Exploding from his Tasmanian roots into global drum and bass fame, Luude broke through with back-to-back multi-platinum hits “Down Under” and “Big City Life”, followed by charting singles “TMO” with Bru-C and “Oh My”. An ARIA Award winner and one of the highest-selling D&B artists of the last decade, he has launched his own imprint No Instruction while touring relentlessly across the world’s biggest stages.

A rising force in UK bass, NOTION blends garage, bassline, jungle and house into high-energy sets that hit with raw energy. Off the back of his viral remix of Chrystal’s “The Days”, which stormed international charts and lit up TikTok, he has cemented himself as one of electronic music’s most exciting names and an unmissable addition to the Wildlands lineup.

sim0ne adds her blend of house and techno sounds alongside her signature euphoric energy while New Zealand-born brothers and latest NME cover stars Balu Brigada bring their unmistakable genre. Miss Kaninna brings a fierce, unapologetic presence that has marked her as one of Australia’s most exciting new live performers, with SOTA bringing his signature drum and bass sounds to the lineup.

The Grogans Bring Raw Energy to Melbourne on Their Stagger Tour – 15 August, 2025

by the partae August 21, 2025
written by the partae

The Grogans brought their Stagger tour home to Melbourne with a sold-out show at 170 Russell, delivering a performance that proved why the trio has become one of Australia’s most exciting live acts. Their sound—an elastic blend of surf rock, garage grit, blues swagger and psych-tinged haze—translated perfectly to the stage, filling the room with a raw but irresistible energy.

From the opening notes, the chemistry between Quin Grunden (bass/vocals), Angus Vasic (guitar) and Jordan Lewis (drums) was undeniable. The band leaned heavily into their latest record Stagger, a release that has already earned ARIA Top 10 recognition, but balanced the night with fan favourites from earlier releases. Tracks like “Lemon to My Lime” carried the carefree spirit that first drew attention to the band, while “Money Will Chase You” sparked the biggest singalong of the night, uniting the room in a chorus that drowned out the stage.

There was a constant sense of movement throughout the set. “Worry About Everything” slowed the pace without losing momentum, offering a reflective moment before diving back into heavier garage tones. The Grogans have always thrived on genre-bending, and that versatility was on full display, each shift handled with ease.

The crowd matched the band’s energy beat for beat. Bodies moved in unison, arms stretched skyward, and a handful of fans rode the wave of the audience with spontaneous crowd surfs. When Lewis stepped out from behind the drum kit mid-set to take up guitar, it was an unexpected twist that only heightened the spontaneity of the night.

Closing with “Oh Boy,” The Grogans ended on a high that felt both unpolished and complete—a reminder that their strength lies in authenticity. No theatrics, no unnecessary polish, just three musicians locked in, playing with the kind of tightness that comes only from years of shared experience.

Opening support came from Adelaide’s Ethanol Blend, who set the tone with an atmospheric performance rich in texture. His soundscapes created the perfect backdrop, easing the audience into the night before The Grogans took the stage with full force.

What made the night stand out was the simplicity. The Grogans don’t need elaborate production or spectacle; their strength lies in connection. The music was raw, vibrant, and deeply human—a quality that continues to push the Melbourne trio beyond their roots and into the national spotlight.

The Temper Trap Return With ‘Lucky Dimes’

by the partae August 19, 2025
written by the partae

UNVEIL NEW SINGLE ‘LUCKY DIMES’, PRODUCED BY STYALZ FUEGO, WITH OFFICIAL VIDEO

FOLLOWS A WAVE OF RECENT VIRAL REMIXES FOR ‘SWEET DISPOSITION’

The Temper Trap share their first new music in nine years, with single ‘Lucky Dimes’ signalling a definitive return for the globally acclaimed band.

‘Lucky Dimes’ arrives fresh off a #11 placing for iconic hit ‘Sweet Disposition’ in triple j’s Hottest 100 Australian Songs of all time. It follows a wave of recent collaborations and reworks of the band’s music, including ‘Love Lost’ with Mac Miller (400 million streams) and a steady stream of ‘Sweet Disposition’ remixes from the likes of John Summit, Vintage Culture, VXSION and Lost Frequencies.

With ‘Lucky Dimes’, The Temper Trap add a bolder, heavier edge to their signature indie-rock sound, frontman Dougy Mandagi’s unmistakable vocals cutting through a storm of scuzzy guitars and thumping drum beats. Already a stand-out and important addition to their recent live shows, its release is accompanied by an exhilarating performance-style video directed by Melbourne-based creative Joey Clough.

WATCH: The Temper Trap – Lucky Dimes

Opting to evolve rather than follow convention, The Temper Trap took a forward-thinking approach to new music, collaborating with Grammy-nominated local producer Styalz Fuego (Troye Sivan, Charli XCX, The Knocks, Khalid). ‘Lucky Dimes’ was co-written with Styalz and mixed by revered English producer and engineer Spike Stent.

“Good to know that 9 years after the last one, we still have something to say. It’s been an absolute pleasure creating this record and we can’t wait to share it with you, not to relive the past but to write the next chapter.“

– Dougy Mandagi

It was 2009 when the then little-known band from Melbourne, Australia, burst onto the scene with the release of their seminal debut album Conditions, and a song called ‘Sweet Disposition’. Their emotive, cinematic soundscapes – expansive yet still accessible – resonated quickly with fans across the globe. ‘Sweet Disposition’ topped charts worldwide, with platinum certifications in Australia, America, Europe and the UK. Popular follow-ups ‘Love Lost’, ‘Science of Fear’ and ‘Fader’ cemented the band’s new-found status as one of the most sought after acts in the world. Soon, The Temper Trap were playing sold-out headline shows across oceans and hitting some of the biggest festival stages globally – including Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, Primavera, Big Day Out, Laneway Festival and more.

Years on, with well over a billion streams and three albums to their name (including two ARIA #1’s The Temper Trap and Thick As Thieves), their music continues to inspire. Recent times have seen a resurgence of love for the band including the aforementioned ‘Love Lost’ collab on Mac Miller’s posthumously re-released Faces mixtape, a slew of remixes for ‘Sweet Disposition’ totalling hundreds of millions of streams, and a feature from Dougy on a rework of Moby’s cult classic ‘Extreme Ways’. These new iterations of the band’s original hits have solidified their popularity with an entirely new generation of fans, re-introducing them to dancefloors and charts worldwide.

Now, with the release of ‘Lucky Dimes’ – the first in a string of music to follow – The Temper Trap embark on an exciting new era, one that promises to resonate as deeply as the songs that first captivated the world 15 years ago.

Stay tuned for touring news soon.

WILDLANDS FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES ITS RETURN TO BRISBANE AND PERTH FOR SUMMER 2026

by the partae August 19, 2025
written by the partae

Brisbane – January 1st (New Year’s Day), 2026 – Brisbane Showgrounds
Perth – January 3rd (Saturday), 2026 – Arena Joondalup

Wildlands Festival has officially announced its return for Summer 2026, presented by Untitled Group, Beyond The Valley and triple j. The signature single-day event will once again bring its palpable energy to Brisbane and Perth, with Brisbane now taking place on New Year’s Day and Perth following on January 3rd 2026.

This marks a new chapter for Wildlands in Queensland, as Brisbane swaps its previous New Year’s Eve slot for the fresh energy of New Year’s Day allowing all headliners to play in peak time slots. Meanwhile, the festival’s west coast edition returns stronger than ever, bringing the Wildlands experience back to Perth in full force.

Released late last week, the teaser video for Wildlands 2026 was set to Luude’s anthem Fun in The Sun, perfectly capturing the festival’s spirit of running wild. The playful clip follows a group of dogs as they are taken on their everyday walk, their attention caught by a sign reading ‘Wildlands This Way’. In an instant, they break free and run wild with unstoppable momentum charging towards exactly what they’ve been waiting for, the festival, with the same fearless energy that defines the Wildlands experience.

Fans can expect Wildlands to once again deliver the best in electronic, hip-hop and indie music, with a stacked lineup of global icons and rising talent set to define the sonic year ahead. Previous editions have featured the likes of Tyler, The Creator, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Peggy Gou, Central Cee, FISHER, Diplo, BICEP, A$AP Ferg, G Flip, Becky Hill, Chase & Status, Lola Young and more.

New Years Eve institution Lost Paradise today unveils its stacked 2025 lineup, returning home for its 11th year in Glenworth Valley (Darkinjung Country), from 28 December until 1 January, just an hour drive from Eora/Sydney.

Eco-conscious, music-centred, community-led and wellness-prioritised – Lost Paradise is an NYE cultural ritual, where world-class music from all corners of the globe communes with a boutique, intimate experience grown from the underground. The 2025 lineup reflects just this, heavily influenced by the rave culture in their DNA while spotlighting a range of artists – from the world’s biggest festivals and prestigious clubs to up-and-coming faces at home and abroad.

Spearheading this year’s bill are some of the world’s top names in their field. German producer and composer Ben Böhmer will arrive with his complex melodic house and acclaimed audiovisual show following a stellar year since his 2024 album Bloom, an enthralling experience to be enjoyed hand in hand with new friends and old at Lost Paradise. Dutch DJ, producer and Up The Stuss label head, Chris Stussy, also joins the bill. An essential figure propelling house music today, his leftfield sound and versatile sets have facilitated a colossal rise in the scene, 2024 being his biggest year yet with sold out tours across the globe, his Won’t Stop (Don’t) EP, and now followed by the launch of a new immersive event series, USS, in 2025.

English producer and DJ Duke Dumont needs little introduction, a contemporary electronic powerhouse who has stolen the world’s attention with his mega-hits like “I Got U”, “Ocean Drive”, “Won’t Look Back”, “Need U (100%)”, and more earning numerous #1 chart titles, Grammy nominations, billions of streams, and a reputation as one of the most successful electronic acts today. Australian duo and Lost Paradise royalty Confidence Man have spent the past few years enrapturing the world in their energetic brand of electro-pop and entertaining live performances, this year touring the globe including Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, All Points East and more, and now make their welcome return to the valley this Summer. French industrial techno artist I Hate Models is non-conformist by nature, a piercing voice in the scene driven by emotion and never beholden to formula.

Irish behemoth KETTAMA, with his self-defined ‘sledgehammer-house’ and slew of club-ready hits like “Fly Away XTC”, has been on a mega Northern Hemisphere touring cycle, and now his cult following in Australia will be pleased to welcome him down under for Lost Paradise. American electronic musician, YouTuber and Twitch streamer Marc Rebillet will journey to the valley, known for the improvised funk and hip-hop tinged cuts, outrageous beats and free flowing humour that have shaped his mighty empire. English electronic duo Maribou State return this NYE with an unmissable live show, off the back of their 2025 album Hallucinating Love and a globe-spanning tour. The two are set to blend their signature atmospheric sound with mesmerising live energy. Iconic an understatement, British electronic stalwarts Underworld also make their return to Australia for Lost Paradise. Acclaimed for their daringly blurred boundaries and unique sonic fusions, the group launched to worldwide fame in 1996 with their single and Trainspotting anthem, “Born Slippy (Nuxx)”, and remain an enduringly influential name in the UK dance scene and beyond. London-based, Brisbane-raised X CLUB. are one of the most in-demand acts on the underground circuit, inspired by early ’90s techno, the duo are fresh from commanding stages from Glastonbury to Berghain.

Accompanying this slate of electronic heavyweights is Sydney-born, LA-based DJ vocalist and songwriter Anna Lunoe, Perth/Whadjuk-based, Indo-Australian artist and DJ Baby J, a team-up between buzzy internationals Bad Boombox b2b Mischluft, Auckland indie rock newcomers Balu Brigada, favourite of the Aussie club circuit Bella Claxton, Melbourne’s hedonistic electro-pop icon BIG WETT, unapologetic pop trio Blusher, enigmatic UKG DJ bullet tooth, one of Sydney’s most accomplished and versatile progressive house talents Cassian, Compton producer and Detroit techno, Chicago house, and West Coast rap fusion artist, Channel Tres, DJ, producer, radio host and Yuggera woman Dameeeela, Berlin-based duo and trance connoisseurs DJ Heartstring, fierce voice from the US, now UK-based, Heidi, French producer Dombresky pres. Disco Dom, eclectic DJ and one of the UK’s most in-demand selectors Dr Banana, and equally one of New York’s most in-demand bands of the moment, Fcukers.

Further stacking the lineup is French producer and Aussie festival favourite Folamour, local nostalgia legend Hot Dub Time Machine, Turkish dance and electronic pop star INJI, Irish dance-pop singer/songwriter Jazzy, Manchester tech house DJ Josh Baker, steamy Australian producer Juicy Romance, the Afro-centric selections of Kilimanjaro, groove-driven Australian dancefloor star Luke Alessi, Merci, Mercy’s irresistible brand of pop, a moment of connection and catharsis with Berlin’s Narciss, rising bassmith Notion, the distinctive pop and house blends of Aussie DJ Obb Mob, UK’s RnB, UKG and house producer Omar+, Belgian DJ and producer Pegassi, English electronic duo Prospa, genre-smashing Tokyo-born DJ innovator Riria, Ross From Friends’ special Bubble Love show, visceral post-punk force Sex Mask, breakthrough DJ Silva Bumpa’s pop-infused speed garage and bass, rising Scottish DJ Sim0ne, alternative electronic duo Sumner, deeply atmospheric, high-energy production from SWIM (Live), Australia’s versatile electronic exports Two Another, techno maximalist VTSS and the infectious energy of Melbourne’s Wolters.

Capped off with unmissable sets from Alex Dowsing, BADASSMUTHA, Bella Backe, Caleb Jackson, Cricket, Couch Mechanic, Dayzzi b2b Daug, Disco Dora, Elijah Something, GMOZ, Grooveworks, Kai Kawai, Large Mirage, Laytx, Lily FM, Lost Soundsystem, Madame Reve, Maina Doe, Mash, Middle James, Mina Tonic, Oscill8, Pamela, Penelope, People’s Party, Roxy Lotz, Salarymen, Selve, SIILA, Silly Lily, Sim Select, Tia Lacoste, Tokyo Sexwale, Tseba, Waxlily, Yasmina Sadiki and a triple j Unearthed winner – a labyrinth of unmatched dancefloor fever awaits in the valley this year.

Woven between Arcadia, Lost Disco and Paradise Club music stages, a labyrinth of eclectic side-quests await discovery. Shambhala Fields will return to facilitate a series of talks, workshops and programs that nurture movement, innovation, creativity and curiosity, including appearances from soulful sound healer Benny Holloway, tech ethicist and thought-leader in the psychedelic renaissance Catriona Wallace, activist Chanel Contos, yoga and breathwork teacher Deano Gladstone, everybody’s favourite science guy Dr. Karl, Ngiyampaa, Yuin, Bandjalang and Gumbangirr artist Eric Avery, movement based therapy expert Gwyn Williams, queer advocate and line dancing enthusiast Kath Ebbs, international yoga teacher and art therapist Lara Zilibowitz, warrior against single-use plastics Plastic Free Mermaid, musical comedian Sez, physio and yoga therapist Simon Borg-Olivier and renowned Australian surfer Tom Carroll. The food village on site will serve up everything from international gourmet bites to greasy after-dark cravings.
