“You Don’t Need To Die To Know Heaven” revolves around hope in the wake of death.
700 Feel
It is a 16 track collection of ambient sketches we made during a dark time we went through together, losing our brother. Throughout this experience we meditated on what heaven would be like. What would it look like? What would it sound like? What would it feel like? Whatever it may be, I hope we’re all surrounded by everyone we love. It isn’t until you start losing people that you realise maybe you were there all along.
700 Feel are a Sydney-based duo comprised of Jonny Hawkins and Juan Villamor who experiment with Chopped and Screwed and Dub techniques within the context of their brand of electronic music. Together, they use these simple but effective techniques to move from ambient soundscapes to bass-heavy club beats and back again.

Finding love for each other in the softer moments, Garage Sale is built for the honest and earnest.
Garage Sale
Following their tour of the USA, they bring their brand of emo-tinged alternative rock back to Sydney for Phoenix Central Park’s Season XVI.
Wearing their hearts on their sleeves, Garage Sale’s debut EP ‘Stars Fall 2’ captures songs from the band’s live set in careful honesty. Painted with diary-esq lyrics and interlocking guitar parts, alongside heavily contrasted dynamics and detail, their new body of work darts effortlessly between gentle hopefulness and crushing dread. Filtering their emotion through loud, hard-panned guitars, soft spoken harmonies and pop mentalities, the multi-aligned indie rockers put themselves to work translating their sound into something tangible.

Jamaica Moana is a cultural powerhouse. A rapper, songwriter, creative director, and ballroom icon, she’s shifting the landscape of music, fashion, and performance with unapologetic energy and razor-sharp vision.
Jamaic Moana
Proudly Māori (Ngāpuhi/Tainui) and Samoan, and repping Western Sydney (Dharwal land), Jamaica fuses rap, R&B, and soul with ancestral fire and fierce queer identity. Her sound hits hard, her presence hits harder.
In the ballroom scene, Jamaica isn’t just part of the movement—she leads it. As co-founder of The West Ball, and a resident commentator, she commands the floor and carves out space for queer, trans, and BIPOC creatives to express, heal, and own their power. She’s building stages where community shines and the next generation rises.

Hinano Fujisaki is a jazz saxophonist, improviser and composer based in Eora/Sydney, Australia, whilst Simon Barker has produced a large collection of solo drumming recordings over the past 20 years and has been involved in numerous ongoing collaborative projects.
Simon Barker x Hinano Fujisaki
This project emerged from thoughts about mesmeric experiences such as listening to cicadas and gurgling creeks, or sitting in front of a campfire. I find these sensory experiences that are rapid, changing, and highly granular sonically or visually a great source of inspiration when asking drumming questions. Over the past year or so I’ve been thinking about these themes whilst creating new drumming materials that have ever-shifting levels of granularity and overlapping knottiness (in conjunction with the granular possibilities of the Lyra 8). It was a great pleasure to explore these thoughts, themes and materials with Hinano for this recording.

Much-discussed Naarm/Melbourne trio Npcede release the first single and video ‘Spleen’ from their debut self-titled EP.
NPCEDE
Npcede combine dark 80s industrial elements with modern electronic, noise, rap and pop influences. ‘Spleen’ has an irresistible swagger to it, darkly compelling even as it details modern life’s more repellent aspects. “Spleen explores the existential melancholy that results from the conditions of contemporary life,” says Npcede bassist Roy Moore. “Sleepwalking, wanking and listless scrolling online all become symptoms of modern indecision.”
NPCEDE’s EP will will be released by Chapter Music on 9 May 2024.

Award-winning songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ruby Gill returns with her long-awaited sophomore album, ‘Some Kind of Control’, out March 28, 2025.
Ruby Gill
An anthemic, choir-laced, poetic epic, the album is, in Gill’s words, “looser, gayer, and even more raw.” To celebrate, she’s bringing its ten body-focused, politically rich, and deeply intimate songs on a national tour across Australia in 2025, performing in the country’s finest venues alongside some of our most exciting artists.
Widely adored for her ability to stun a room into hear-a-pin-drop silence with unforgettably honest – and wryly humorous – offerings that can bring even the most cynical to tears, Ruby Gill has gone from strength to strength since turning heads and ears with 2018 single ‘Your Mum’ (2018) which garnered millions of streams and a full add to triple j in its first week.

Jasmine Guffond is an artist and composer working at the interface of social, political and technical infrastructures. Her practice spans live performance, recording, sound installation and custom made browser plug-in.
Jasmine Guffond
Through the sonification of data Jasmine Guffond addresses the potential for sound to engage with contemporary political questions. Recent projects employed digital technologies, sonification and the aesthetisation of data as a means of fostering discussion around contemporary surveillance technologies as well as producing experimental audio works. Interested in providing an audible presence for phenomena that usually lies beyond human perception, via the sonification of facial recognition algorithms, global networks or internet tracking cookies she questions what it means for our personal habits to be traceable, and for our identities, choices and personalities to be reduced to streams of data.

Hailing from the remote community of Papunya, northwest of Alice Springs, Luritja singer-songwriter Keanu Nelson quietly developed songs with his notebook, guitar, and voice. Songs of longing for Country, for family, for girls. With no immediate means to record them, he fatefully connected with producer and musician Yuta Matsumura (The Lewers, Th Blisks) through the Papunya Tjupi Arts Centre, where he can often be found painting in the Western Desert tradition and curiously scrolling YouTube for music videos and concert footage.
