This Fri 17th Dec Shrug celebrates our 2nd birthday with one of the worlds best live acts ANTIX. These two antipodean brothers have been taking on the world with amazing live shows in clubs and festivals in Australian, South America and Europe during 2010. They've also had their tracks featured on set lists from all the major progressive & techno DJ's worldwide.
After seeing them play live at the last two Subsonic festivals and being totally blown away by their performances we've been itching to give the brothers a nice intimate headline club gig in Sydney, so here we go....
Joining ANTIX on the 17th will be some of Sydney finest;

ANTIX (Iboga records - New Zealand)
Somewhere back in the late 90’s brothers Barton and Hayden Strom fresh faced and a love for electronic music formed the soon to be world famous outside New Zealand – Antix. Iboga Records in Denmark got whiff of the new sound and promptly signed the two brothers who then produced their landmark debut album “Lull” in 2003...
The album won over fans and critics alike, with tick all box’s from the media and a string of killer live performances the brothers were building a solid reputation as one of the most in demand progressive acts on the planet. The touring trend followed as the boys started clocking in big festival dates to crowds in excess of 15,000 and performed in some of the most respected clubs worldwide.
Follow up albums often have a lot to live up to and when “Twin Coast Discovery” in 2005 was released the album demanded attention and once again placed Antix as ambassadors on the world stage. In 2007 the boys raised the bar even higher with their next installment entitled “Wanderers” and the follow up DVD/CD "Wandering" a collection of remixes and tour documentary of their last US tour. With "Wanderers" they've have taken their sound to the next level using their infectious bass lines and minimal grooves unleashing a hint of old skool flavor proving that the lads still have the Midas touch.
2008 started out with a bang with Antix being nominated and then placed runner up for the best In their game on the Beatport Music Awards. With no time to rest on their achievements, 2009 was a busy year of touring and working on their new album titled "Cavalier" released in May 2010 on Iboga. The album ep's "Box of Birds" "The Hoard" and "Manta" have already set the bench mark of what is in store with praise and support from the likes of (all the top jocks) Dave Seaman, Guy J, Nick Warren, King Unique, John
Digweed, Stephan Bodzin, Paul Oakenfield , Jerome Ism-Ae and Laurent Garnier to name a few. Its a cracker, with bonus remix CD with remixes from Beckers, Hernan Catteno, Infusion, Djuma Soundsystem and Erphun to name a few.
