ENTERTAINMENT
CYRIL
Cyril is the Aussie-born artist behind two of the world's hottest records at the moment, "Stumblin' In" and his remix of Grammy-nominated artist Disturbed's "Sound of Silence."Born and raised in the countryside of regional Australia and now based in Darwin, Cyril, the producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist on guitar, piano, and drums, experienced a challenging journey from teenager to adult. He dealt with personal issues and turmoil, causing him to abandon his musical aspirations at times. However, one thing remained true: he always kept his laptop and guitar close to him, keeping the dream alive and constantly refining his craft. His biggest moment thus far came in late 2023 with the release of "Stumblin' In," which initially exploded on TikTok before dominating the worlds of streaming and radio. It became the #1 most-played song on air in countries like Germany, Poland, Australia, New Zealand, and more, as well as covering some of Spotify and Apple's biggest playlists. At the time of writing, Cyril boasts an impressive 250 million+ streams, sits atop the Shazam charts in over 20 different countries, has gone Platinum and Gold in numerous different countries, and has amassed more than 800,000+ followers across socials. With a trajectory as clear as it is limitless, expect to hear a lot more from Cyril in 2024 and beyond.
KLP
Dropping heaters around the country, KLP is one of Australia’s go-tos for big house music energy and is guaranteed to deliver good vibes and sweaty dance floors wherever she takes to the stage. With multiple ARIA Award nominations, platinum records, and one of Australia’s most in-demand songwriters and vocalists, there’s not much Sydney-based DJ and producer KLP (Kristy Lee Peters) can’t do.
Breaking through as host of Triple j’s House Party, KLP was earmarked as a tastemaker in the Australian music industry from early on. Since hanging up her radio mic, KLP has picked up two ARIA Award nominations for her collabs with Stace Cadet, ‘Energy’ and ‘People Happy’, with ‘Energy’ also placing #21 in triple j’s coveted Hottest 100 countdown. Follow-up singles ‘Eat The Runway’ with LaLa Ri, ‘Busy Dancing’, ‘Can’t Handle’ and ‘Feel The Same’ with SH Gemini, show the incredible breadth of KLP’s songwriting and production prowess, with a bunch of international collabs also in the works.
Having previously written with the likes of Skrillex and Peking Duk, 2023 has seen KLP release her own solo single 'Body Close’ and team up with one of Australia’s biggest dance music exports, Tommy Trash, for ‘Big Emotion’. Signed to Sydney-based label Medium Rare Records, KLP has also released music through internationally renowned labels like Ministry of Sound and Ultra Records. She has a plethora of new music in the pipeline like her upcoming collab with Loods on Diplo’s Higher Ground imprint and ‘Take Notes’ with Ranger Trucco on Archie Hamilton’s MicroHertz label, plus new solo single ‘Feelings’ coming soon through Medium Rare & Warner Music.
DARBY
Australian-born producer/songwriter 'Darby' has characterized himself as a musical powerhouse at the crossroads of electronic & pop. With a taste of euphoric nostalgia, the 23-year-old curates a dreamy essence of a mature take on the glittery Y2K digital aesthetic. Since debuting in 2019, his accelerated growth has earned support from the likes of electronic icons Disclosure, Martin Garrix, ILLENIUM, Alison Wonderland, SLANDER & NGHTMRE, with official remixes for San Holo's "bb u ok?" Deluxe Album and IMANU's "UNFOLD Remixes" Album. With outstanding releases on Electronic labels Monstercat, Bitbird and Ophelia Records as well as mainstream support from International (SiriusXM) & National Radio (Triple J), Darby has intensely defined his reputation in all spheres of his domain. Reflecting elements of a sunset, the genre-bending artist crafts an ethereal audio-visual experience through his work, holding nothing back in terms of technical creativity and raw emotional experience. Through colorful energetic soundscapes, Darby transports listeners and tugs at genres in ways that are truly unexpected. With strong acclaim already to his name, fans are eager at what's on the horizon for this rising act.
LO'99
LO’99 is renowned for his brand of house & techno music, his productions often delivering distinctive rave & warehouse sounds. Dance music’s elite is getting behind his vision with LO being called upon to remix the likes of Fatboy Slim, Royksopp, Kaskade, Moby, Pnau, Junior Jack, Peking Duk & AlunaGeorge. When it comes to his records, LO shows exactly why he’s up there alongside Australia’s best, with many singles out on coveted tastemaker labels, as well as his very own Medium Rare Recordings. His recent releases ‘Echo in the Dark’, ‘Bumpin’ ‘Acid Worldwide’ & ‘Run to the Rhythm’ have become staples in record boxes & playlists the world.
FRONT ROW
Front Row is the product of Jordan Burns and Ned Kelly, two of Queensland’s leading tastemakers joining forces to deliver some of the hottest techno and house music.
Jordan Burns has been one of Australia’s leading multi-genre producers for many years now and recently became part of the Youtube billion stream club with his viral hit ‘Weekend’. He has released on Sony, Night Bass, Spinnin and most recently Neon (universal), but it’s Jordan’s ability to write and produce elite-level tracks in such a short amount of time that really gives Jordan the edger over most in this space. This was displayed by his 15 releases in 15 weeks in 2023.
Ned Kelly is one of QLD’s highly regarded DJ/producers/photographers/content creators! Ned has graced the stage at some of Australia’s leading festivals and clubs, but it's his ability to read a crowd and work a dance floor that really sets him apart. Ned has worn many hats over the years, whether it’s been Club Promoter, Resident DJ or Touring DJ, it’s Ned’s artistic flair, social media abilities and eye for the perfect shot that makes him the perfect artist to partner alongside Jordan.
CHUMPION
Chumpion has mashed it all up in his career; Classic Rock to Top 40, Hip Hop to Bangers, Trap to Indie, and everything in between. This Australian Mashup Royalty hails from Sydney and wears his crown with pride. No stranger to chart success; you can find his Originals/ Remixes and Mashups topping the Beatport, Australian ARIA & Hypeedit Charts. Chumpion receives millions of streams on streaming services, plus support for his music around the world by the biggest titans in the industry. It's easy to see (and hear) why you'll find the name Chumpion on any decent DJ's playlist. If you thought Chumpion was just another cue button smashing, air piano playing, generic banger curator, you thought wrong.
