Haçienda Bangkok Reveals Full Lineup w/ 808 State, Peter Hook (New Order), Basement Jaxx and more

by the partae January 8, 2026
written by the partae

On 24th January, the legendary FAC51 The Haçienda returns to Bangkok to transform Ambience Space into a multi-room, day festival experience and the venue’s first event of this scale in a landmark moment for the city’s evolving cultural landscape. A Bangkok debut DJ set for Basement Jaxx headlines with ex Joy Division and New Order bassist Peter Hook playing alongside Manchester legends like 808 State, Jon Dasilva, DJ Paullete, and more heady house and tech from Move D, Huerta, Liquid Earth and others.

Born in Manchester in 1982, The Haçienda defined modern club culture and launched a global movement that still resonates today. Its return to Bangkok celebrates a long-standing musical connection between Manchester and Krung Thep, first forged in the 80s, carried forward by new generations and still live on today’s dancefloors.

Basement Jaxx are Brit Award-winning pioneers whose explosive DJ sets blend house, breaks, carnival energy and timeless classics. 25 years on from Rooty, they remain one of dance music’s most electrifying forces.

Very Special Guest Peter Hook makes a rare appearance. He is the Haçienda’s original owner and founding architect of Manchester’s sound with his bass playing in Joy Division and New Order and is a direct link to the club’s origins, bringing its spirit, stories and attitude to Bangkok.

Fellow Manchester legends 808 State, acid house trailblazers and electronic music pioneers, Jon Dasilva, a seminal Haçienda resident and early sonic architect, DJ Paulette, another Haçienda resident, LGBTQ+ pioneer and UK club icon also play. Add in Move D, a deep, emotive selector and long-time cult favourite, Panorama Bar regular and modern house standout Huerta and hardware-driven house, electro and tech-funk innovator Liquid Earth and together, the line-up reflects the Haçienda’s original forward-facing ethos by bridging legacy and future dancefloor sounds.

Room 2 is hosted by Mixmag & Transport. Celebrating Transport’s 10th Anniversary, this room unites one of the world’s leading dance platforms with Bangkok’s longest-running underground party.

Room 3 is a Bangkok Collectives Showcase featuring Yellowfang, Pissawong, More Rice, Kangkao, Romrom and more, alongside pop-up record stalls and official Haçienda merchandise.

Produced with support from Maho Rasop, Bar Temp, Transport and Bangkok Community Radio and with tickets strictly limited to 2,000, this is a must-attend event that will go down in history.

 

Full Line-up:

Basement Jaxx (DJ Set) • Peter Hook • 808 State • Jon Dasilva • DJ Paulette • Move D • Huerta • Liquid Earth • Yellowfang • Pam Anantr • Ché Wax • Overmars • Transport 10th Anniversary (Room 2) • Pissawong • More Rice • Kangkao • Romrom • Olbi Iyah (Room 3)

by the partae January 8, 2026

Water Stones: Lynn Patrick’s Quiet Masterpiece of Grace, Motion, and Emotional Clarity

by the partae January 8, 2026
written by the partae

There’s a quiet confidence to Water Stones that’s felt almost immediately. It doesn’t announce itself or lean on spectacle. Instead, it settles in slowly, the way certain records do when they’re built on feeling rather than intention. For Lynn Patrick, this album feels less like a statement and more like a reflection—one shaped by time, patience, and an instinctive understanding of space.

The record is rooted in acoustic guitar, but calling it guitar-led undersells what’s happening here. Mandolin, violin, upright bass, and gentle percussion move around the melodies with a natural ease, never crowding the frame. Everything feels considered, but never careful. There’s a looseness to the arrangements, a sense that the music is allowed to breathe rather than be guided.

Patrick’s playing is expressive without being showy. Notes are chosen for how they feel, not how they impress. Melodies arrive unforced, often lingering just long enough before moving on. Tracks like “Surfing Lu Lu” and “Breezy Sassafras” carry a quiet sense of lift, while others—“Unknown Changes” or the title track—slow things down, creating space for reflection rather than resolution.

The idea behind Water Stones is simple, but deeply effective. Like water shaping stone, the album reflects the way experience gradually alters us. There’s no urgency here, no dramatic peaks or forced emotion. Instead, the record moves gently, trusting that time and repetition will do the work. It’s music that doesn’t demand attention so much as reward it.

What stands out most is how natural the album feels. Nothing sounds overworked. Nothing feels placed for effect. There’s an organic flow from track to track, as though the songs are part of the same landscape rather than separate ideas stitched together. That sense of continuity makes the album easy to sit with, whether you’re listening closely or letting it play in the background of a quiet afternoon.

Nature has clearly left its mark on this record. You can hear it in the openness of the arrangements and the way the music seems to move rather than progress. It evokes wide spaces and slow moments—the kind where nothing is happening, yet everything feels present. Rather than telling a story outright, Water Stones allows listeners to bring their own into the frame.

There’s also a warmth running through the album that’s difficult to fake. It’s not nostalgia, and it’s not sentimentality. It’s the warmth that comes from an artist who knows when to step back and let the music speak for itself. Patrick’s restraint is one of her greatest strengths here, allowing emotion to surface naturally instead of being pushed forward.

Across its twelve tracks, Water Stones maintains a steady emotional clarity. It never overwhelms, but it also never fades into the background. It’s the kind of record that grows more familiar with time, revealing small details on repeat listens—an unexpected harmony, a subtle rhythmic shift, a melody that lingers longer than expected.

In a landscape crowded with urgency and noise, Water Stones feels refreshingly unhurried. It’s an album built on trust—trust in melody, in silence, and in the listener. Not something to rush through, but something to return to, again and again, when quiet feels like the right place to be.

About Lynn Patrick

Lynn Patrick is an award-winning guitarist and composer whose work is deeply shaped by nature, movement, and emotional intuition. Raised in Florida in a musically active family, Lynn grew up surrounded by song and instruments, while early experiences spent in and around the ocean—swimming, sailing, snorkeling, and exploring—helped form the foundation of her creative voice. After earning a Humanities degree from Florida State University, she moved to Boston to pursue music before settling in Colorado, where the Rocky Mountains became a lasting source of inspiration. She has lived west of Boulder for more than two decades, drawing creative energy from the surrounding landscape.

Lynn has independently produced and released six instrumental albums and one vocal album, earning recognition for her expressive, melodic guitar style. Her work has been honoured with two Independent Music Awards for Best New Age Song, along with finalist placements in the USA Songwriting Competition and multiple acoustic music awards.

Her music has appeared widely across film, television, and broadcast media, including a three-year feature on The Young and the Restless, documentary soundtracks, and outlets such as NPR, SiriusXM, and The Weather Channel. With more than 16 million streams worldwide, Lynn has also performed at iconic venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre, The Bitter End, The Bluebird Café, SXSW, and festivals throughout Colorado.

RECORD STORE DAY RETURNS SATURDAY 18 APRIL 2026

by the partae January 7, 2026
written by the partae

Record Store Day Australia returns for 2026 on Saturday 18 April, celebrating the vital role independently owned record stores play in Australian communities and the people who make them thrive; from store owners and staff, to artists, labels and music lovers.

Since its beginnings in 2008, Record Store Day has grown into a global celebration of independent music retail. The day continues to support music communities, labels, emerging and established artists, while supporting our local indie record stores, highlighting their unique role as cultural hubs and community spaces.

The continued resurgence of physical music formats from vinyl to CDs, cassettes, and more has people coming together in record stores to discover music, connect with their communities, and celebrate the culture that exists beyond streaming platforms.

Artists and labels are invited to submit expressions of interest to release music as part of Record Store Day Australia 2026. Releases may be presented via OG formats, vinyl, CD, and cassette, or via KiTbetter, the new hybrid physical and digital music format designed to blend the collectible appeal of physical music products of albums, photo cards, booklets, and merchandise, helping restore value in music ownership by giving fans something tangible to hold and as well as the connected digital experience. Record Store Day Australia aims to provide flexible pathways for artists to participate while celebrating physical and collectable formats. EOIs close Friday, 30 January.

Previous years have seen releases issued as part of Record Store Day Australia from Ninajirachi, Ruel, You Am I, Pond, The Grogans, Olana Janfa, Beth and Blue, Heavy Moss, Ella Thompson, Ocean Alley, Underground Lovers, Montaigne, Tasman Keith, Confidence Man, Peking Duk and Darren Hayes collaboration, The Wiggles, Bluey and more.

Record Store Day Australia recognises record stores as more than retail spaces, but also as community hubs, where shared musical passion forges connections that digital, algorithm-driven platforms often fail to replicate.

These physical spaces facilitate intergenerational connections, from first-time vinyl buyers to seasoned collectors, who share their knowledge and help ensure that culture remains accessible. The continued existence of the physical music and vinyl ecosystem is a conscious choice, and Record Store Day highlights the unique benefits of physical music retail over digital alternatives: human-driven discovery, the promotion of intentional listening experiences, and community support for artist development.

Save The Date
Record Store Day – Saturday 18 April 2026

Artists & Labels: Expressions of interest are now open for Record Store Day Australia releases in Vinyl, CD, Cassette, or KiTbetter formats.
EOIs CLOSE 5 PM FRIDAY, 30 JANUARY.  Submit HERE 

Stay tuned for more announcements soon!

SPILT MILK 2025 CLOSES OUT FOUR MASSIVE SHOWS ACROSS AUSTRALIA BALLARAT | PERTH | CANBERRA | GOLD COAST

by the partae December 19, 2025
written by the partae
WEEKEND ONE – BALLARAT & PERTH

Spilt Milk launched its 2025 season in Ballarat/Wadawurrung, where Lotte Gallagher brought her melodic, vocals-forward set and indie-pop charm to Derbyshire Stage, followed by The Rions and The Dreggs sets that quickly drew one of the first major crowds of the day. While the American singer-songwriter, Nessa Barrett delivered an emotional, alt-pop slot and Chance Peña poured out a warm, soulful, Texas-flecked performance. Surprises around every corner, ARIA Award-crowned icon Ninajirachi also treated the crowd to a secret set in the Red Bull capsule, while the skies cleared at golden hour for Dominic Fike and his breezy, guitar-soaked hits. All before sombr, who performed the biggest shows of his career so far at Spilt Milk 2025, entered the crowd to join the party in one of many energetic moments. As night fell across Ballifornia, Doechii tore into the Angove stage with sharp choreography, high-voltage energy and the first-ever Australian performance of Grammy-nominated single ‘Anxiety’, and Kendrick Lamar delivered a razor-sharp, career-spanning headline moment that set a powerful tone for the tour ahead.

With pristine weather Perth/Whadjuk ran hot from the start, with Spici Water firing up Basquiat and Namesake easing crowds into Derbyshire, before Mia Wray’s huge, soulful vocals took over and hometown heroes South Summit pulled one of the first big surges of the day. Club Angel shifted the Basquiat tent into fast, garage-driven party mode, ScHoolboy Q was spotted watching Genesis Owusu’s masterful performance, before the same stage was lit up with his own hit-stacked set. Elsewhere Baby J did her hometown proud and Skin On Skin locked the crowd into a driving, club-leaning rhythm that had the audience moving from the first drop. RESTRICTED closed out the night to a capacity audience, including Skin On Skin who hopped on stage in the fan area from start to finish, further sealing Perth as one of the most high-powered stops of the festival run.

WEEKEND TWO – CANBERRA & GOLD COAST

Never resting, Spilt Milk returned for Weekend Two, kicking off in its spiritual hometown of Canberra/Ngunnawal. The sold-out Exhibition Park crowd embraced the festival from the moment gates opened, with Eldest and zacattacq kicking the day off, while Don West brought warmth and groove with his latest album, and Sophie Edwards added her heartfelt indie-pop touch to the Derbyshire stage. Sofia Isella lifted the late afternoon with her bold, art-pop edge with her sharp vocals and cinematic flair and the biggest roar of the day arrived when Genesis Owusu stepped onto the Basquiat stage for a triumphant homecoming set, a late-addition surprise that hit even harder in his own city, firing through unreleased tracks and fresh singles “PIRATE RADIO” and “DEATH CULT ZOMBIE”. From there, Ninajirachi pushed the night forward with her shimmering, club-ready sound and praising the Canberra crowd’s electric energy that continued into the evening’s closing sets.

For the final leg on the tour, the artists pulled out all the stops. Warming up the early hours were QLD locals like Ixaras, JJ4K and Selve. Gold Coast local Lyric brought her witty synth-pop anthems to the afternoon and the raucous alt-rock set of Rum Jungle further electrified crowds. Ennaria awed with her dynamic, genre-crossing set, and Esha Tewari showed why she’s launched from her bedroom recordings to international acclaim with her absorbing, heartfelt words. Meanwhile, Rebecca Black’s live set brought a burst of glossy pop to Basquiat before later showing off her DJ chops with a surprise appearance hidden in the Red Bull capsule. An absolute powerhouse across the whole tour, Sara Landry had the Basquiat stage heaving with a hard techno set the Gold Coast will never forget.

One of the most talked about festival tours of the year, Spilt Milk delivered four unstoppable celebrations of music, culture and community across the country.

Legendary guitarist Tom Morello joins metalcore powerhouse Beartooth with new single “Everything Burns”

by the partae December 19, 2025
written by the partae

Legendary guitarist Tom Morello joins metalcore powerhouse Beartooth with new single “Everything Burns” (out now on Mom+Pop Music) produced by two-time GRAMMY-nominated songwriter, musician and producer Tyler Smyth (Falling in Reverse, I Prevail, Blessthefall, Royal & the Serpent). This fierce collaboration fuses Morello’s signature guitar riffs with soaring, aggressive vocals from singer Caleb Shomo noting: “Creating ‘Everything Burns’ was the definition of lightning in a bottle. Pressure makes diamonds. When I got a call saying Tom Morello wants you to sing on a song for a huge project and it’s due in a few hours I had no idea what would happen, but I gave it all I had and it turned into something that’s truly once in a lifetime. I couldn’t be more honored to be a part of this with Tom and the entire Final Fantasy family that made this happen. Life goal achieved.”

Yesterday, the song made its in-game debut for the latest update of Final Fantasy XIV, where players will get to experience the track in one of the most pivotal parts of the game – earlier today it premiered on SiriusXM Octane and is now available globally on all streaming platforms along with a music video directed by AxiA.

On his collaboration with Beartooth, Morello adds: “Everything Burns is a high energy riff heavy banger that feels like it’s rising from the streets. Collaborating with Beartooth and super producer Tyler Smyth to forge this ferocious next single from my upcoming solo album was a real thrill.”

Ahead of its opening in 2026, LATE CLUB is gearing up for a spectacular debut showcase on 17 January 2026 at the Amphitheater in Nuanu. The 9-hour open air event, starting at sunset, promises cutting-edge electronic music, a mystical venue, spectacular stage production and light design, and an unforgettable day-to-night journey. Situated just in front of the club, which is currently under construction, the amphitheater offers a setting where timeless elegance meets lush tropical surroundings. Guests will be immersed in an enchanting atmosphere enhanced by cocktails, street food, and striking art, creating a fully multi-sensory experience. The event will be headlined by musical maverick VIKEN ARMAN, followed by the groundbreaking duo GEJU and the up-and-coming KUMA.

French producer, DJ, and musician VIKEN ARMAN crafts a distinctive sound blending jazz, house, minimal, hip hop and world music, delivering hypnotic performances on some of the world’s most iconic dancefloors, from Fusion to Burning Man. His latest release ‘Willow’ topped N*1 of the Beatport Chart Electronica, while his Cercle Live reached over 1 million views, cementing his status as one of the most innovative artists of the scene. Defining the genre of Chillrave, GEJU fuses meditative chillout with ecstatic rave energy, captivating audiences from Moscow to festivals like Burning Man, Fusion Festival, and ADE. KUMA, resident of GEJU’s Leveldva Records, brings musical tenderness and confident dance grooves.

The immersive event kicks off at 6 PM and pulses through the night until 3 AM in a space where the classic amphitheater architecture blends with cozy corners. Guests can sip cocktails crafted by the LATE head bartender, unwind in chill-out zones with plush carpets and pillows, marvel at striking robotic art objects, and indulge in street food from open-air stalls.

LATE is a bold new concept set to open in Nuanu, Bali, in 2026. The venue will feature a nightclub, a fusion cuisine restaurant and a cocktail bar, a listening vinyl bar, chill-out zones, and themed rooms that double as immersive event spaces.

Ministry of Sound Celebrates 35 Years with First Names of 2026

by the partae December 19, 2025
written by the partae

Set to kick off the year will be the likes of Ron Trent, Joe Claussell, Lauren Lo Sung, Eats Everything, Tony Humphries, Fiorella, Pete Tong, Kölsch, Zed Bias, Konstantin Sibold and more

Ministry of Sound unveils the first wave of artists set to soundtrack its historic 35th Anniversary Programme, marking the beginning of a year-long celebration for one of electronic music’s most influential club institutions. The opening announcements preview a milestone moment for the London powerhouse as it prepares for its most transformative year yet. After 35 years at the forefront of global club culture, Ministry of Sound is readying a new chapter that will reshape the clubbing experience, with major plans to reinvent the look and feel of the club from January 2026.

Heading up the bill are heavyweight artists whose sounds have defined generations and shaped the rhythm of London nightlife. From house legends Ron Trent, Joe Claussell and Tony Humphries to global powerhouses Pete Tong, Kölsch, Darius Syrossian, Eats Everything and more, reflecting the club’s enduring influence on the city’s musical identity and sonic legacy, which continues to be the blueprint for club culture across the globe.

Alongside the headline acts, Ministry of Sound continue to put a spotlight on London’s most vital and exciting new talent. Lauren Lo Sung brings the genre-blurring house sets that have made her a fixture on the capital’s floors, Fiorella pushes deep house and minimal sounds into fresh territory, Riva Starr and Matrefakt inject tech and house flavours, and Konstantin Sibold’s melodic techno has won him acclaim across Europe.

Landing in the new year, Blink takes over Fridays at Ministry, championing the best in melodic and afro-house. Launched with Louder, it kicks off on Friday 30th January with a headline set from afro-house artist &Friends. Building on the club’s cross-genre ethos, Blink forms part of a 2026 programme that shines a light on emerging talent and brings the world’s standout artists to London’s floors.

“Everyone at Ministry of Sound is incredibly proud of what we’ve built over the last 35 years, the nights, the artists, the energy that has defined London’s sound. But we’re also thinking ahead, about what the club could become over the next 30 years. Next year marks the start of that chapter.” – Matt Long, Club Director. 

The anniversary kicks off in January with Carnival of Sound on Friday 9, followed by celebrating 23 Years of Select Radio on Saturday 10. Mas Que Nada brings house and disco-infused energy on Saturday 17, while Sound of Garage revisits UKG classics on Friday 23. The month closes with two standout headline nights: &friends on Saturday 30 January, and a landmark back-to-back set from Pete Tong and Kölsch on Saturday 31, supported by Lauren Lo Sung and Jansons.

February continues the momentum with Hard Times hosting a rare daytime session on Saturday 7, featuring house pioneers Ron Trent, Joe Claussell and Tony Humphries. Later on in the month, URGE, Siesta, La Discothèque (celebrating 10 years), Smoove and Room Service bring a mix of underground and genre-spanning sounds, while Konstantin Sibold takes to the decks on Friday 20 February.

March rounds out the opening season with the Latin energy of BRESH on Saturday 7, global big-room star KSHMR on Friday 13, and the technicolour rhythms of Zamna Soundsystem on Friday 20. The month closes with Mak10 + Friends on Saturday 28, a showcase of grime, UKG, and UK funky celebrating the club’s underground spirit.

The 2026 programme honours the venue’s rich history while pushing forward into new creative territory, blending heritage with innovation, legends with rising talents and London roots with worldwide reach.

YUBIK JOINS FORCES WITH ADRIATIQUE & VINCENT VOSSEN ON MELODIC HOUSE/TECHNO TRACK ‘NEVER ALONE’ OUT NOW

by the partae December 18, 2025
written by the partae

Driven by a desire to evolve rather than repeat himself, Yubik continues to refine a sound that is raw, dancefloor-ready, and emotionally charged. That identity reaches a new peak on “Never Alone,” a powerful three-way collaboration with Adriatique and Vincent Vossen that brings together three distinct creative voices with striking cohesion.

Released via Adriatique’s X Recordings, “Never Alone” is a peak-time Melodic House and Techno weapon, meticulously engineered for both physical impact and emotional weight. Pulsing low-end grooves form the foundation, while soaring, intricately sculpted synth lines rise and fall with a sense of tension and release designed to command large rooms.

Yubik leads the record with a refined and deeply emotive vision, continuing a creative trajectory shaped by standout releases on Afterlife, Siamese, and beyond. Adriatique inject their unmistakable touch, informed by a legacy of genre-defining work on Diynamic and Afterlife, their influential Siamese imprint, and a catalogue of landmark BBC Radio 1 Essential Mixes—credentials that place the track firmly in the sights of the global DJ elite. Completing the collaboration, Vincent Vossen adds his signature emotional depth, blending genre boundaries with finesse and restraint.

The result is “Never Alone”: a record that balances power and vulnerability, engineered for peak moments while resonating far beyond the dancefloor.

LISTEN

About Yubik:

Since the project’s creation in 2018, Yubik has continuously reshaped his sound, leading to releases on respected labels such as Afterlife, Siamese, and others. Each chapter has marked a shift, revealing an artist in constant evolution.

On his musical journey Yubik has been travelling off the beaten path. Cabalistic and groovy at the same time, his raw, feral and most of all irresistibly danceable sound effortlessly crosses borders.

Over the past year, Yubik has pushed further into new territory with a series of high-impact releases. Highlights include “Relax Your Mind” alongside 19:26 on afterlife, “Fears of Transcendence” with Innellea, “Dragonfly” with Enai, the hypnotic “Paradox of Perception” on Errorr, and the latest one “Never Alone” with Adriatique & Vicent Vossen. These works reflect a refined artistic direction , deeper, more expressive, and unmistakably his own.
