The sexy space brothers!

🧑🏻‍🎤Milky Dondrick & Dondre Milke 👩‍🎤

If you have been to one of our Intergalactic SciFi Spectacular shows previously you would be familiar with our sexy space boi hosts. These sexy brothers have arrived here from a galaxy far away and have come to earth to try and source some red hot talent for their intergalactic travelling talent show. There’s a huge chance they are gonna find some across these two nights coz the talent is simply popping right off! Between our 4 Dj’s, our pole, Lyra and hula hoop acts, I think they may be sorted with some new acts.

Picture this - a giant spaceship in the middle of Civic Park, inside it is a Dj, looking out onto the sea of dancers, pumping out some epic beats. You’re looking up at them, they’re looking down on you. Dopamine levels rising with every new beat, with every new twist and turn of your body. You hit the button on your headphones, oh what’s this, a new channel, 90’s hip hop, what a vibe. You switch it back, you wanna be one with the Dj and with everyone else in this silent disco. You look over to the right and see some magical creature swinging around in a ring. Is it an alien? Why does it move this way? You look over to the left and feast your eyes upon psychedelic visual projections. Is this a dream? What more could i want? This night truely has it all!

🎧💥KILLIONAIRE 💥🎧

Killionaire debuted at Future Forest 2018, and has been a regular at Mind Sub parties, Off//Beat and Higher Ground. Playing a unique blend of ghettofunk, wonky glitch and breaks, a smidge of swing plus a dash of disco, killionaire's basslines make for a pumping dancefloor.

Chuck on a pair of headphones, set your channel to Killionaire’s live DJ set, and dance the night away, right to our giant spaceship, under the stars in Civic Park! It’s gonna go off! 💥⚡️💫

⚡️ KILBO ⚡️

You may have seen Kilbo in phase 2 of our intergalactic scifi spectacular show. His performance went off with such a bang that he is back by popular demand for phase 3! The stuff he can do on that pole is wild! Somehow he is as strong as an ox and as slippery as a snake all in the same body! But KILBO hasn’t always been this way, he started his journey on planet earth as a stiff and stagnant robot from some far away planet, and during this show you will watch him transform into a powerful bendy new creature! Come check out KILBO on stage next to our giant spaceship! 🚀

⚡️🎧 DJ MINCY 🎧⚡️

Imagine this face bearing down on you from inside a GIANT spaceship! She’s playing you some spicy ass beats, and your dancing yourself into another galaxy. This could be you’re reality soon!

Meet Mincy. Sydney/Eora based. Breakbeat. Jungle, Dubstep. Rave. Speed Garage. Grime. Left Field Bass. Groups of genres rarely become synonymous with a singular DJ, but in Australia, Mincy is a sharp, fierce representative of heavy, fast and bass focussed underground dance music, not only as a DJ, but as a label head, producer and promoter.

Her ferocity behind the decks has taken her to some of the biggest stages on offer, but locally and internationally.

And now here she is joining us in Newcastle, playing from our lifesize spaceship! LUCKY US. Don’t miss it.

✨ ALI PICKUP ✨

We love Ali. We think she really encapsulates how it would be to move in outer space. Aerial hoop is so damn scifi. With no gravity up there in the stratosphere, there would be no walking, everyone is probably rolling around in similar ways to Ali just to do their daily tasks. So maybe Ali has come down here to teach us all how it’s done. Her act is like a workshop on how to move once we all make it to outer space. And since we have a life size space ship at this at this event, that time may be soon...

Aerial artist, circus performer and coach. Come learn some sweet space moves at our next event with ! ⚡️
