Displacement
When do we become conscious / aware of our displacement in this world? Is it a startling realization, or rather a deeply engrained knowledge within us us all?
Exile is an avant-garde collective based in Banks Peninsula.

Memory Burn
Regressor
Reuben Derrick
Sonic explorations through unseen realms of chaos and beauty. An eclectic tornado of abstract terror, hurlting towards land in search of nirvanic release.
Give meaning to the pointlessness and desperation of our existence. What are you doing?

Instant Fantasy x French_concession x Othersun – Live
Artist Toshi Endo will be doing live visuals!
—————————————–
Instant Fantasy
https://soundcloud.com/instantfantasy
Instant Fantasy plays sexual hypno-drone; songs about tears, getting moist and that sweat you forgot about that happens when you sleep next to another person. Though the songs are sad they give a sense of freedom; post-orgasm after breaking up with someone. It’s all gold for this synth drone ego-miner.

French_concession 法國租界
https://soundcloud.com/french_concession
Started in Shanghai 2009, French_concession sound has been described by music journalist Martyn Pepperell as “ethereal dream pop vocals, glossy synthesiser arrange-ments and vivid syncopated beatscapes. Aesthetically recalling Darkbloom era Grimes and D’Eon, or even Miharu Koshi’s early Haruomi Hosono produced J-tech-nopop sound, it’s compelling work.”
This time French_concession will be show casing her 4th EP release – ‘At Knifepoint’ – coming out on the 1 Oct, 2016 on Bandcamp and Soundcloud.
