Catch the next reverberation. Echo Beach brings its good vibrations back round again,
Feb 11 ~ Collingwood Children’s Farm.

The cool whistle of a yee well haw’d will feel resoundingly at home among the gumtrees for our home in 2023, a day wriggling with joy, hedonism and escapism, a trip to the Farm, faraway in time…

To ring the Echo clearly again in our ears, we’ve enlisted a selection of the finest from our around the way and over yonder.

Those who signed up will find presale codes fluttering into their inboxes today ~ presale tickets go live at 5PM, general release 5PM tomorrow.

One last job. Coming out of the woodwork for one final review of the desperately anticipated Hopkins Creek in March. Reporter in the field Sam Varian delivers an audio recap of the memories, moments and croaky voices from the weekend in the crater.

One last job. We’ve come out of our collective slumber for one last field report. Gauging opinions, thoughts and recollections from the desperately anticipated Hopkins Creek.

Shout out to our dear friend Esa for having us and our #1 Adriana on his recent Worldwide FM show. Managed to piece together an hour of some of our favourite rare, forthcoming and beloved tunes ❤️‍🔥

London-based South African Esa Williams presents music from his friends, sounds from his travels and exciting new discoveries.

Unfortunately, due to circumstances outside of our control, Raphael Top Secret will be no longer able to make it to Echo Beach. While we were extremely keen to host Raph on the pier, we’re equally excited to share CC:DISCO! will take his place in the sunset slot.

Though she needs no introduction, we’ll ramble for a little while anyway. There can’t be a dance floor she hasn’t rocked or a head she hasn’t blown in Melbourne. The proof is in the proverbial pudding, and the pudding is delicious. For years CC has been a force in Melbourne, from Friday nights on PBS with Smoke and Mirrors to cracking jokes with cooked folk on the d-floor, her presence has undoubtedly changed the fabric of the scene. Her passion for music paired with her dinky di ability to cultivate an outrageously good time dependably creates some of the richest dance floor memories. Best of all, everything is delivered with the high octane gusto that only someone who totally loves what they’re doing can muster - it’s infectious, unpretentious, boot scootin’ fun. Last Echo CC danced so hard she popped her hip and left in a wheelchair. We’re unsure what that means exactly, but we’re sure it’s some kind of positive omen.

There are so bloody few second release tickets left. Get em quick sticks before we move on to our final release.

This Saturday we finally step into the beautiful surrounds of the Footscray Amphitheatre for Lift & Fall: Jura Soundsystem, Darcy Justice, Adriana + Noise In My Head 🌿 Last few tickets available for this one. It’s a special, curated lineup, in an intimate setting, with an intimate capacity and we can’t wait to get down into it and absolve ourselves of the year 2021.

The cast for Echo Beach 2022. For those of you with presale codes, the tickets are live now. Best hop to it. General release tickets on sale from 5PM tomorrow. More names to be announced in the new year.

After a year of dastardly uncertainty, we couldn’t be happier we forged ahead with Echo for next year. The idea of getting down on the pier again, with a bonza crowd and a lineup that makes us wet our pants has sustained us in the year that’s been. It warms our cockles. A yeehaw in the darkest of times. Toot toot to the big Summer to come.

Echo Beach 2022 first announcement drops Monday 5PM. Last chance to sign up to gain presale access. 👇

All around us, the breeze is taking on a note, whistling a song. Turn your ear to the wind… can you hear it? A yeehaw calls from the horizon. The warm winds sing freely of good tidings, hark a fleeting feeling you might have had, long ago. A feeling unbounded and wriggling with joy.

As surely as the wind blows, an echo always answers its own call. Echo Beach 2022 returns from the offing to reverberate its tune of good times around the concrete beach of Seaworks. A mystical tryst of good old fashioned fun, spangled in hedonism and whirling with escapism.

Lineup revealed on Monday, 5PM sharp. Tickets on sale Tuesday at the same time. Sign up for RSVPs to presale here - https://bit.ly/3pwyhsw

We’ve taken a bit of a turn on our monthly Noods Radio show, playing more stuff from yonder lands, not just the home shores. Rest assured though, we’ll keep putting a spotlight on the great local music coming out. First hour from us this month we’re pretty big on, jam-packed with some tracks we’ve really been into over the last month, the second hour is from our lovely new mate, Oren. On point, as usual.

Having devoured the sonic fruits of Eternal Love's output over the last couple, you can imagine the overwrought thigh rubbing pandemonium in Figaro HQ when Eternal Love got in contact with us to premiere not one, but two, tracks of their inaugural compilation. Enclosed we have new sounds from Trujillo and Sydney's Caravan. Sweet sounds for a poignant lockdown.

Milan based duo, Eternal Love, have had their fingers in some of the tastiest sonic pies from the European shores, with a string of delicious edits being pushed out through some of the globes most cultured tastemakers. Outside of their own edits, Eternal Love have been a dependable outfit for some o

Had a yak with one of our favourite diggers and label curators Mike Who about his Planet Trip Records imprint which has, in just under two years, become one of the countries essential outlets for interesting, eclectic dance music and the state of Sydney emerging from lockdown.

In a few very short years Mike Who’s Planet Trip imprint has been making a lot of noise. The archetypal DJ’s DJ ID card often issued to Mike rings true, particularly when you put the label’s output under a microscope. It’s a label that is built out of Sydney for one sole purpose - to release...

Sunnyside have been creating warm, accessible jazz, funk and house fusions since 2016, attempting to capture their clearly sparse influences to create their own diverse sound. Often, combining such a myriad of influences can lead to directionless music and a group that’s unsure of itself. Sunnyside instead provide something for everyone and countless layers of musical consideration throughout all four tracks.

Six-piece jazz funk outfit Sunnyside have added another exceptional series of genre-blending audio smoothies with their most recent EP, Pass the Parcel . Sunnyside have been creating warm, accessible jazz, funk and house fusions since 2016, attempting to capture their clearly sparse influences to c

Had the pleasure of having Darcy Justice put down the second hour on our last Noods show, get yourself a little taster for what's to come at Lift & Fall: Jura Soundsystem, Darcy Justice, Adriana + Noise In My Head at the end of the month 😈
First release tickets are goneski and moving swiftly 👀

Playback of our latest Noods Show, a bit of a shake up at our end, keeping the show locally focussed, but not 100%. Got a guest mix from one of the best in the bloody town Darcy Justice for the second

Today’s premiere, ‘E36’, is a B-line into the fast lane, a percussion-heavy ride that quickly escalates into a winding chase. A dance floor ready melter, made for the club with the pandemic in the rearview mirror. Out via Planet Trip Records 🌠

You’d be hard-pressed to find a dance music label in Australia that has had a better output than Planet Trip in the last 12 months. The imprint led by Sydney’s Mike Who has scoured the globe releasing
