Saturday 5th January 2013 – The Metro – Sydney
Niche Productions is proud to announce a Bass, House and Future Beats lineup of festival proportions – the perfect way to ring in the new-year.
In the tradition of such sell-out events as Flying Lotus & Martyn in early 2012, Hold Tight will now take over both rooms of The Metro to present a smattering of cutting edge Electronic artists under the one room for one night only.
Digital Mystikz aka DMZ are recognised as pioneers of the Dubstep movement, with Coki taking in more of the gnarly end of the Bass spectrum and partner in crime Mala moving through the spaces between Dub and Soundsystem culture. This year Mala released the immensely popular album Mala In Cuba which has helped propel Dubstep even further in to popular culture.
Gaslamp Killer is the Los Angeles native whose album Breakthrough on Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder has been the jewel in a crown speckled with hits like main stage appearances at Sonar amongst others. He is a regular traveller to Australia and ever popular.
Rustie came through with an amazing album for Warp in 2012 called Glass Swords. It, to this day has stood amongst countless pioneering Electronic music albums and pushed itself ahead of the pack, garnering tonnes of praise from the likes of The Guardian. He’s also recently been heard on the Adidas Olympics ads.
Headlining the House and Disco room is none other than Theo Parrish. No stranger to our shores, Theo Parrish has remained ever proactive on the decks and also on the boards with a swag of recent edits and remixes for artists and labels as diverse as Ninja Tune and his own Sound Signature label.
Space Dimension Controller will be representing the classic House and Techno label R & S, who they have had a number of successful releases on, with their immensely dreamy yet punchy take on electronica across a wide array of BPMs.
DJ Nu Mark’s world famous Toy Set will amaze at Hold Tight, with the ex-Jurassic 5 producer and DJ extraordinaire incorporating some kooky old favourites from your childhood with turntable trickery in to one of the most entertaining DJ shows you’ll ever see.
West London producer T Williams seamlessly moves between techno, Deep House and Broken Beat and has released a number of successful EPs on label like PTN, Enchufada and Local Action. His inclusion on this lineup signals the future of the energetic UK Bass sound.
Om Unit has been big in the game for a number of years, with output ranging from Trap style bass bangers to trippy Edits and lurching Hip Hop monsters.
Spencer is co-founder of the seminal Glasgow based label and party series Numbers. Also a co-host of the Numbers show on Rinse FM, Spencer and the Numbers crew are key figures in the current explosion of UK electronic music, releasing music by the likes of SBTRKT, Jamie xx and many more well before they blew up.
Joining these heavyweights of House, Bass, Hip-Hop and electronic are some of Sydney’s best locals in Kali and Simon Caldwell and the live show of wordlife, truly making this one of the best parties to usher in the new year.
