  • Brisbane music fans have cause to celebrate with the forthcoming Crossroads. Crossroads is an annual Brisbane cultural event that aims celebrate and integrate electronic music, art and new media. The first Crossroads occurred in September 2002. Now into it’s second year, Crossroads will expand to two sounds stages and represent the key electronic music and multi-media event at The Straight Out Of Brisbane (SOOB) Festival, which happens 3 to 6 December. Crossroads takes place on Saturday 6 October from 6pm to 5am at The Winery. Crossroads will be showcasing young, emerging and established local and interstate electronic musicians, live acts and DJs; new media, multi-media, aerosol and performance artists, VJs and more. The music will be highlighting the diversity and talent in the Australian, particularly Brisbane electronic music scene, incorporating everything from ambient, downbeat, hip-hop, techno, electro, house, breaks and drum`n bass beats. The focus of this year’s Crossroads is SUPER SATURATION, a term inspired by the saturation and manipulation of digital colour. The theme will be applied to all aspects of the Crossroads production, particularly the visual art. Crossroads is seeking participation by visual and performance artists and aerosol artists for a live display. If you would like to be involved or volunteer, contact the Visual Arts Coordinator, Michelle Oxenham ASAP via [email protected] for more details.
