After rummaging through over 500 remixes,  RÜFÜS DU SOL have selected the local act who'll open their headline show in Hobart next year. 

Sydney trio The Nights have been selected to support the gig at Regatta Grounds on Saturday 4 January, as their remix of RÜFÜS DU SOL's New Sky was deemed the winner of the triple j Unearthed competition.

“It was amazing and very humbling to receive over 500 remixes of New Sky," RÜFÜS DU SOL said.

"There is clearly a lot of talent in Australia right now, evidenced in how many strong ideas there were. What we loved about The Nights’ remix is that we could tell these guys had a singular vision for the track.

"Not only was it a nice melodic journey, the bonus was that it was also dance floor ready.”
