ShockOne

Shockone has become one of bass music’s major talents since releasing his chart-topping single Polygon in 2009, and continues to produce remixes for the likes of Netsky, Chicane, Ayah Marar, The Aston Shuffle, and more. The music producer is now based predominantly overseas.

Krafty Kuts

UK award-winning producer Krafty Kuts also joins the mix. He’s one of the most loved hip hop influenced breakbeat artists on the planet, and his enormous list of credits really speaks for itself, with a whole swag of singles as well as remixes for some of the best in the business. Australian audiences particularly love Krafty Kuts' work, so his return will be a very welcome one.

ETC! ETC!

LA-based producer ETC!ETC! has been selling out shows all over Europe recently, gravitating his aural attention onto anything that moves the room. Having garnered a diverse array of highly-prestigious support in the past from EDM leaders such as Wolfgang Gartner, AC Slater, Congorock and more, he’ll be ready and rearing to show us everything he’s got.

Lady Waks

The first lady of broken beat, Lady Waks, is heading back to Perth to make sure its people don't forget what it is she brings to the dance music arena, having played a number of festivals and shows here before, including Major Bass last year.

Grooverider & DJSS

British drum & bass DJ Grooverider began his trade DJing at illegal raves and warehouse parties in the late ‘80s, and has since been a huge influence within the scene, playing roles in a number of radio stations and helping artists in the same field with his record label. Having been part of the scene for close to two decades, he’ll bring a wealth of tenure to the lineup. He’ll be joined by DJSS, who is currently journeying his way across the globe on a world tour.
