18|04|08:: Tickled Pink @ La Di Da (The Basement) - Cnr Little Bourke & King Street, Melbourne
I've been wanting to play with the Tickled Pink girls for sometime, I've been friends with Danni and the crew for many years... now it's time to tighten my shoelaces and try to impress the already impressive girls with a bit of boy power! Due to wedding commitments abroad, i'm playing an earlier set to what i was scheduled - 12-1.30AM. Now here's a little blurb...
d-JCB has been lurking in Melbourne’s underground for over 10 years now, spinning wax at some of the finest venues and events around, as well as putting on his own parties, you might remember a party called “Fukdupp” featuring Berliner’s Modeselektor? d-JCB is apart of the “Semi-Retired” crew, and ran large indoor/outdoor events at the warehouse venue Carni over summer... now semi is “fully retired”, he’s had a chance to mix with more crews, and playing abroad, more recently two gigs in Perth, as well as recent gigs at Revolver, Loop, Glasshouse and F4, playing with crews like Meccanoid, More Bass, Zokk and Soma Corp to name a few… Sporting one of the largest record collections in Australia, covering many genres/tempos/moods, d-JCB has really mastered the art of the 'Forest Gump' chocolate box – you never know what to expect… Plus guests Mish’Chief & Freya and TP residents Nadine, Sass & Nugget
12|04|08:: More Bass: Fucken Yeah @ Rusty Lounge (old Ace Morning) - 791 Sydney Road, Brunswick
Samuel L. Bronkowicz Presents... his debut performance at More Bass, an exclusive bass orientated set will be brought fourth to guarantee deep gut wrenching action and eternal tinnitus for any who dare hang around! No Highs... No Mids... just MORE BASS!!!!! I'm playing 2-3.30AM in the Beer Garden, make sure yr souvlaki is well digested or else it will be your new accessory, all over your chest! be warned, Samuel L. Bronkowicz Presents...
22|02|08:: Retek (Perth) @ Bar Open
23|02|08:: Minimal Xposure (Perth) @ Velvet Lounge
09|03|08:: Gridlock @ Revolver (Front Room) - Chapel Street, Prahran
31|12|07:: Meccanoid's NYE 'Trailer Trash' Bash! @ PONY [68-70 Little Collins Street, Melbourne]
Featuring: Teknob & Grimus (live), Bjoern Enz, Mo Itchi vs Miyagi, Peter Baker, d-JCB, Hysteric, Wasubot & Brut 33 (Paradise Lost, SYD) PLUS Meccanoid residents
On New Year's Eve rock the synthetic mosh in your hot stone wash and put your hands in the air and flip your permed hair at Meccanoid's Trailer Trash New Years Party! For one night only we're going back to Pony for a Trailer Trash night better than a pack of Alpine lights, so come get suburban with tracks that are better than a UDL Bourbon. Special guests 'Turbo' Teknob and 'Grouse' Grimus (back from a Contiki tour of Europe for one show!) will make you want to skull it with your bleach blonde mullet. Mo-Ichi vs Myagi will play synth sounds to suit as you stomp your ugg boot and Bjoern Enz will light the floor up for you like an electro Winnie Blue. The Meccanoid 4-pack of Quirkzy, 'Gotcha' Glitch, Not 'wet tshirt' Jan and 'Torana' Toupee play electro for your ear as good as VB Beer. Downstairs, 'Magwheel' Mittons,' Peter 'Bogan' Baker, D-JVB and 'Dr 'Hotrod' Hysteric will be as golden as a hotted up holden, plus Sydney djs Wasubot vs Brut 33 will play sounds that get stuck on you more than than an Aussie Rules tattoo. Meccanoid will bring you more fun in the dark than a Maccas car park, so wash your Ford Telstar and meet us at Pony Bar!
NYE: Monday December 31st @ Pony - 68-70 Little Collins Street, CBD. 10pm till 9am. $12
01|01|08:: Hi-Jacked @ Carni NYD Warehouse extravaganza [60 High st Preston]

CARNI continues their New Year tradition with the highly regarded Underground Dance Music party 'Hi-Jacked'. Combining some of Melbourne's hardest working Northside crews, Technoir, Messy Creations, Kenetik, Smash Bang and Ghetto Fabulous. Set over two stages, indoor and out, in the magical surroundings of the CARNI warehouse art space.
