    We’re thrilled to announce a first-time collaboration with cutting-edge Australian arts organisation SOFT CENTRE, including this dedicted floor of late-night oriented live and DJ sets.

    Opening the night, DJ BOTOX is the unapologetic, club-focused alter ego of Born in Flamez. No playlists, no genres, no rules: injecting the club full of high-voltage cocktails of bass-driven chaos, BOTOX is designed to jolt bodies into motion, lifting those dance muscles up up UP.

    The alias of composer and producer Nontokozo F. Sihwa, Venus Ex Machina weaves soundscapes that defy the bounds of industrial, temporal, and sonic norms. Her post-industrial incantations are a dark, intricate amalgamation of futuristic mechanics and ancient chants, shaped by a rigorous exploration of mathematics, machines, and meaning.

    Female Wizard’s cross-genre DJ set will baffle the binary, delaying gratification and embracing dissonance to transform hedonism into an act of defiance. Blended tempos with visceral intensity mirror her fascination with the fragility and power of breath, a recurring motif in both her music and performance art.

    On-the-rise rapper, producer and performance artist SOLSA will join forces with SoundClown and SOFT CENTRE co-director Thick Owens to unveil an itinerant new live set. Expect deft and irreverent lyrics, unhinged stage theatrics and razor-sharp production, mashing gnarled strains of gutter rap, freetekno, industrial and bush doof-inspired squelch.

    As a solo electronic musician R. Rebeiro explores probability as an artistic methodology to enact rhythmic expression. Combining analogue grit and digital precision by the use of manipulated drum machines and Max/MSP, R. Rebeiro’s set will unleash lazer sharp generative rhythms to explore ideas around cause and effect, variation, acceptance, and deep listening.   

    Under the moniker NERVE, sonic architect Joshua Wells forges tracks that feel like precision-tooled machinery breaking free of its programming, fusing elements of drum & bass, jungle, industrial, electro, and noise into dense, kinetic compositions that pulse with both mechanical intensity and organic chaos.

    Closing the floor, Argentinian DJ and Latin Grammy winner Tayhana’s sets are a collision of pulsing energy and fearless experimentation—seamless kaleidoscopes of mutant techno, cumbia turra, ballroom, and Brazilian batucada to fill minds and feet with the fires of resistance and celebration.
