Last week we put together a rather small little shindig to help celebrate the opening of our new venue at Home nightclub.
To all who came down and boogied on down well past 3am, we thank you greatly for your smiles, your terrible dancing skills but most of all your support! We salute you!
While Sydney’s music scene may be suffering from some issues, the same cannot be same for the quality of acts! To all who played – you did so impeccably, truly an all class day, night and morning of class music!
It’s with this, we open the doors overlooking Sydney’s iconic Darling Harbour to the notorious German production and Dj of… Super Flu!
Mike Witcombe, one of Sydney’s long time house legends will be leading the locals charge with prime Picnic, disco and grooves queen, Kali to the left and another long standing Australian Dj & promoter, RifRaf to the right.
Originally from overseas and now adopted Australian brothers, Jon-Jak and Garry Todd will be making their long awaited return to the Sunday stable while pitched down gentlemen, Simon Brayford and Rickstar are in tow to close and open respectively.
This week, S*A*S*H plays host to:
★ Super Flu ★
German duo of Felix Thielemann and Mathias Schwarz in the last few years have well and truly established their dominance with their playful sound overlaid on rolling and bouncy bass lines. In Australia for their ‘Halle Salle’ Album Tour, released at the end of last year, the formidable Dj/producer duo recently returned from the infamous Fusion festival draped in praise.

★ Mike Witcombe ★
Further example of how much talent is here in our fair city, Mike is one sought after commodity at the moment. With his production and Dj’ing skills working hand-in-hand, Mike is the master of bass line driven smoothness. Having severed crowds of late night revelers at his Spice residence for a couple of years, Mike is jumping on board for our new venue and we couldn’t be happier!

★ Kali ★
For ages Kali has been keeping Sydney vibing with top-shelf house and timeless disco. Between hosting some of the city’s most incredible parties under the picnic banner and spinning at just about every quality joint in town, the outcome is always the same; hundreds of dancing feet and grinning faces.

★ RifRaf ★
Over the past 20 years, Raf has built a reputation as a producer, Dj and promoter, playing coast to coast from Sydney to Berlin, brining together a wealth of musical knowledge and exclusive collaborations with top guns as Alexkid, Dubtaylor, Sascha Braemer, Philip Bader to name a few. He made his name organising Sydney’s Earthdance Festival and Deep As Fu*k parties. https://soundcloud.com/djrifraf
★ Jon-Jak ★
JJ’s initial breakthrough came during a summer trip to Corfu, Greece in 1999 where he started playing regular sets at various beach bars. As a testimony of his talent, Jon has had residencies in Greece, London, Ibiza and Thailand – where he has been the driving force in pushing the music scene for over 3 years.

★ Garry Todd ★
Since leaving the UK over 6 years ago, Garry has become a pivotal figure in reforming Australia’s underground club scene, largely with his Bread&Butter parties attracting luminaries such as, Mattias Tanzmann, Dixon, Matthew Jonson and Jarvis Voorn. With a slew of appearances at the most highly regarded festivals and releases on both Beef Records & Leed’s 20:20 Vision label and not to mention residency at Carl Cox’s weekly party at Space in Ibiza.

★ Steven Sullivan ★
Drawing on influences from Detroit, Chicago and Berlin, Steve’s sets are comprised of a blend of the deeper shades of house, disco, soul & techno. It’s this veriety that has secured him both Friday and Saturday night residences at The Spice Cellar. It’s this energy and versatility which has had him support some of the finest artists in the industry – Chez Damier, Kenny Larkin, Tom Targo and Mathew Dekay.

★ Simon Brayford ★
Former ‘We Like..’ headliner has slowly begin to carve out his own trademark sounds with deep and slow chugging grooves. Dishing out his sound through avenues like his ‘Bliss Undergound’ podcast series and ‘Behind This’ parties, Simon is well and truly on his way to slowing things right down to minus 6%. His intimate sounds blanket, envelop and infect with low slung with a blissful euphoria.

★ Rickstar ★
Another ‘We Like..’ headliner, he’s blown the socks off us in the past surrounds of The Abercrombie with his sound encompassing an infectious rolling, lazy and uplifting house beats with a tasteful dash of darker tech. With such a beautiful venue on our hands it’s well worth getting down earlier, conquering a couch and watching the sun set over Darling Harbour to one of Sydney’s favourite soundtracks.
