KPxMR Artist Announce - Fitz-e:

Fitz-e aka Ray Borner, voted in 2024 as Narrm’s #7 favourite conductor of musical varietals such as italo disco, new wave/beat, post punk and beyond, has a sonic palette as diverse as the city’s laneways and wordy coffee orders.
Cutting their teeth as 1/6 of the infamous institute of fun Spin Club, the dj strives to blend old gold with the contemporary and flarey, transporting punters to a cosmic black hole on the dancing floor where every track tells a tale.

Come see what all the fuss is about this Sunday at Music Room Melbourne.

KPxMR Artist Announce - Séarlait:

Hailing from the UK, Séarlait has carved a unique space for herself in Naarm and beyond, frequenting for labels such as Steel City Dance Discs, international music festivals and working behind the scenes at Waves. 
Her roots lie in UK underground dance music, orbiting playfully around breaks, electro and techno, however Séarlait’s enthusiasm to carefully and seamlessly explore various genres is what places her innovative style in an entire realm of its own.
Radio holds a special place for Séarlait to experiment and develop her distinct sound, crafting mixes for both on and off the dancefloor, being the host of 1800 Play on area3000, a monthly resident on Bloop London with Our Ears Only, and regularly contributing guest mixes for stations like Rinse FM, Voices Radio and The Sound Gallery.

A fresh and eternal personality, with a q***r identity and an eclectic spirit. Full-time DJ, producer and digger. Passionate about investigating avant-garde sounds from past eras, 80s, 90s and post-contemporaries from different parts of the world.

In her playful approach to breaking boundaries, Tina captures the zeitgeist of a generation that is in a constant state of transformation, continually recontextualizing seemingly fixed concepts and stereotypes. As a result, both different sets and productions are essentially genre-fluid, showcasing their talent for fusing diverse elements into a cohesive musical fabric.

We look forward to hosting Tina Disco this Sunday at Music Room Melbourne.
