Featured Artists:
SynclΔir
Since their DJ debut in 2023, SynclΔir has delivered audiences uniquely texture-soaked and bass-fueled DnB, mid-tempo, dubstep, garage, and house music. They are a proud non-binary AuDHDer, and a self-identified sensory seeker. Their heart is where the bass is, and they've been embedded in the Sydney rave scene for many years - when they're not behind the decks, they can usually be found dancing right in front of them! SynclΔir has previously woven their magic at Sydney's Rave Cave, Cavern, Reunion and Shmeere, and have shared stages with international producers Mobiius, and Captain Bass, as well as interstate and local legends Pretence, Aimer, Tassone, Ubermoon, Alicia Mayhem, Esial, Annie B, Crimewave, Al Phranky, and more. They'll be bringing a mix of energetic, punchy, and uplifting tunes that are sure to make your brain tingle!
