  • Sydney promoters Astral People and Niche Productions are teaming up for a December party with Pearson Sound and Ben UFO. With the two companies also set to co-present Four Tet's Sydney appearance later this year, their second collaborative effort will be headlined by David Kennedy under his Pearson Sound moniker. Previously known as Ramadanman, Kennedy has been releasing records under his new alias since 2009 on labels like Night Slugs and Soul Jazz, as well as the esteemed Hessle Audio which he co-runs with fellow Ben UFO, who stays out of the studio to focus on A&R and hone his eclectic DJ style. Together the pair represent a UK scene which blurs the line between house and bass music. Joining them on the lineup is R&S artist Pariah, whose shaped his dubstep-cum-techno production style since 2010 both as a solo artist and in collaboration with Blawan under the name Karenn. Manchester's xxxy and anonymous American act Slow Magic are confirmed as well. Sydney's own Dro Carey leads the local support with Cliques and Ben Fester. The show will take place at The Metro Theatre on Friday the 28th of December. Doors open at 9:00 PM.
