AUDIBLE EDGE '25https://ae.tonelist.com.au/
~ ABOUT ~
“Am I still on planet earth or did we actually crash land on bizarro world?” (Rainy Colbert, Magazine6000, 2024)
Audible Edge is a celebration of DIY and exploratory music culture on Whadjuk Noongar boodja, running yearly since 2017. It has no genre affiliation and is home to all kinds of sonic strangeness. It has a boundless affection for the unhinged, the goofy and the peerlessly rigorous alike. It hosts special music in settings that strive to be fun, friendly, safe, and accessible.
If 2024’s festival was something that shimmered and shined, AE’25 is the same but dropped in the mud. There is a flute under water, a women’s wartime song, a tiny rattling machine, the crackle of burning tree-stumps, a vulture’s wings cutting the air, a binaural recording of high-heels sinking into wet grass. Sometimes listened to from something soft and comfy, and other times in a much sillier context.
AE is about learning about where we are through those who have courageously dreamed of how this time and place could sound. It’s about learning how great our scene is by putting it on even-footing with international heavy hitters. And it’s about being on the side of artists, finding ways to support exploratory expression here.
If you've come before, we hope you'll be excited as us to block out the dates on your calendar. If you haven’t been before, we’d love to welcome you into this cool thing, and suggest you do the same. It's all really good, and flows in a way that takes care of you.
