As part of this charity collaboration, MOONBASE and his label Trench Records have put together a massive event that's happening on October 5th at the Oxford Art Factory in Sydney called Greymatter.

With that being said, the fundraising event will be focused on showcasing up and coming Australian artists united under a singular cause.

He's put together a strong lineup of locals, featuring the likes of DRO CAREY, new Trench Records signee AKOUO, some huge local DJs like FLEXMAMI, JADE LE FLAY, MOWGLY MAY, and of course sets from Trench Records legends Tiber, Tobacco Rat and Moonbase himself.
