- The DJs will be joined by a mystery headliner and Simon Caldwell at the Civic in September.
- Fresh off the announcement of our New York and Moscow dates, we're proud to say that Robag Wruhme, Joakim and local fave Simon Caldwell will be on the decks along with a mystery headliner for our RA X stop in Sydney. Most will of course know Robag from his time as one-half of the Wighnomy Brothers, but since their split he's put out a number of releases, most notably 2011's lauded full-length Thora Vukk. Joakim also has a release on the way: A few weeks after the party his Tigersushi album Nothing Gold hits shops. And Caldwell? He's simply one of the best local DJs in Sydney. We'll be taking over the two floors of The Civic Hotel on the night, making for extended sets all around. (As this will be an exclusive Australian date for our X, we want to ensure they get as much time as possible.) It's the sixth event in our 10th anniversary celebrations, and with Loco Dice, DJ Harvey and Michael Mayer as former headliners, you can be assured that we have someone pretty special set to appear on the night. Sydney will follow in quick succession from our New York event featuring Mala and King Sunshine and Moscow, which promises Radio Slave and Jamie Jones among many others. As always, we also have a limited edition poster to commemorate the party. Albert Bertolín, of Circus Company fame, has gotten the nod this time around. Striking green creatures feature. There will be only 75 available, so be sure to get in fast if you want one.
