FridgeJet Fun Bag - September


Every now and then, starting from today, expect to be served up with what we have decided to call a 'FridgeJet Fun Bag'. Lame name aside, these treats will contain a number of tracks and mix tapes from a bunch of different artists, all of top notch quality. It helps us out in making sure we don't let tracks grow old in our inbox as we watch other blogs post them, so expect more tunes from now on with plenty of these to come. Enjoy!

Aspin & Dipace
Their two DJ/Producers from the UK and to this day, you would be hard pressed to find a big name out there who didn't acknowledge the duo's work. They've remixed the likes of
Kyle Watson, Calvertron and Carl Cox, popped up on labels like Cr2 Records, Venga and Wearhouse, and received praises from just about every known name around the block. Given all this, the guys have kept a level head and stayed true to their roots, still serving up that amazing sound that got them a cult of followers so quickly. What's even more exciting is the fact that Aspin & Dipace have dropped a few bootlegs, no hidden tricks, all yours. The tracks are a good sample of what the guys do and will make you go to their Beatport page (right here) and throw some coin their way in an effort to get some more, we hope.





Royal K + Timoshii
We're not going to blabber on about these two and their history, as we have a comprehensive archive of posts on them (click here for Royal K and here for Timoshii). They are both great producers and work horses. They don't sleep. To be honest we don't even know if they eat. But they produce a tonne of sweet tracks, mix tapes and crazy sets in clubs around the place. Recently, Timoshii has worked over 'Stretcher' from Royal K and it's came out quite nicely. He's allowed a snippet of the 320 to be sampled before you can all get your mitts on the real deal. It's due out on Junky Trunk Records and we insist you check this space for more info in the coming weeks. In the meantime, have a listen to the tune, via Timoshii's Soundcloud.

We haven't giving these guys enough chat since they kicked off quite some time back now. If you don't know who they are, you probably don't go out that much, but that's OK. The team behind it all kicked things off with a huge launch party back in May and have been throwing crazy house parties at Empire Hotel ever since. Maybe it's the different vibe or cool atmosphere, but the crowds keep coming back and the events are going through the roof. If you haven't been to one yet, we suggest making their blog a regular stop off point when your on the computer. Alternatively you could grab them on Facebook. They've recently posted a sweet new mix from Black Candy residents Donnie & Brasco, comprising of all the same sorta tunes the two use to get the crowds going at each party. Enjoy it then catch the duo + more at Here Comes The Sun, the biggest Parklife Pre-Party!

Black Candy



Black Candy Productions presents the BLACK PARTY on the 6th of august at Empire Hotel. If their is one thing that symbolizes the true essence of cool it is BLACK....think no lights, candles everywhere, dark-strange insulations and visual stimulus. Fresh off the scene brisbane's DJ heroes KEEN? JC EDIT, HENLO and DONNIE and BRASCO will be rocking the foundations of empire. Also, born out of the basement of neon lights and skinny jeans, Misere, brisban'es biggest up and coming neo-synth band will be playing a LIVE set.

New Blood!


Black Candy Productions have been tearing up Empire over the past couple of months - haven't you heard? From Moon Bar to Corner Bar, they've thrown parties in every light of Empire - complete with whacky themes, hot dogs, computer games, jelly shots and more! It's this fresh style that's had the lines backing up and dance floors filling more and more as each night rolls through town.




Inline with their anti-hero attitude, the BC boys have brought a new, young breed of DJ in to do the honors for all their parties. From the outside the names wont make you gasp, but its certainly a breath of fresh air when you walk into the parties, never knowing which DJ will be mashing up what genre. DJ Ryles has been jammin' out killer early sets at the Cornered parties lately, smashing out perfect tunes for any timeslot he's given. The diversity in his music has him walking into Empire Middle Bar come July 24th for 'Front to Front' (pres by Brand Spank'd). Don't know what to expect? Check out his mixtape below, get on it and check him at the upcoming Black Candy parties!

BONUS - Donnie & Brasco have also lived through the Black Candy lifespan and have a new tech house mini mix available, definitaly worthy of mention.

PAC-MAN + Nerds


The Black Candy 'Revenge of the Nerds' party went off in traditional style as the Empire Moon Bar house party packed out last week. The nights are getting bigger and with all the sneaky treats and extras the crowds have come to expect, its on the way up! July 3rd is the next stop, with Black Candy Productions presenting 'Life of Electro'. Serving up free hot dogs, the jelly shots everyone missed last time and a great local line up, it should be a banger. Kick off 8pm, featuring DJ's Jordan Naumov, Benibee, Keen?, Donnie & Brasco and more - see you there!

Extra? Me and a mates little alter-ego snapped out a quick mixtape for the Black Candy crew the other day, just a taste of what go's on each night!
