Minister for Tourism, Major Events and the Arts, and acting Trade and Investment Minister, George Souris, congratulated organisers on the new Vivid Music line-up and encouraged fans to make the most of the entire Vivid Sydney experience, on from 23 May to 9 June. “Boasting world leading artists and creative collectives, Vivid Music continues to wow audiences, expanding this year into new venues and favourite Sydney haunts,” Mr Souris said. “With Sydney set to be transformed by stunning 3D light projections and installations, Vivid Music gives visitors another unique and creative Vivid Sydney experience,” he said.

Three performances by multi-award winning electronic pop legends Pet Shop Boys offer a rare opportunity to experience a spectacular multi-media production in an intimate and immersive environment, and their only Australian performances of their 2013/14 Electric World tour. Cutting edge Brooklyn artists, Liars, have been pursuing the art of music and performance for over 15 years, and have just released their seventh studio album, Mess. The Quietus describe Liars shows as ‘beautiful, bizarre and brilliant”, and they’ll be performing at Modulations on Friday 6 June. Porteño is collaborating with their favorite LA based record label Wild Records to present an unforgettable experience at Wild Porteño, a pop up restaurant / bar open each night of the Long Weekend. On Monday 9 June, they present the ultimate Porteño live experience with performances from Wild artists The Delta Bombers , Gizzelle and Luis & The Wildfires. One of Vivid Music’s exciting new venues, The Basement at Circular Quay, boasts a full performance schedule, featuring shows from incredible local talent such Fishing, one of Australia’s most exhilarating electronic acts, who will exclusively launch their debut album during Vivid Music. Laneous & The Family Yah, The Big Village and the rap-obsessed Halfway Crooks will all make their Vivid Sydney debuts, alongside Australia’s future-soul beacon Ngaiire, whose first Vivid Sydney show will introduce keen new audiences to a wild, deeply moving and renowned live performance featuring some special guests. In a first for Vivid Music, Spice Spektrum, hosted at The Spice Cellar, will treat audiences to a fusion of food, music and mood. A visual twist on SPICE will light up each night of the week with different colours, with each colour interpreted through music, food and visuals to stimulate the senses, giving visitors a unique emotional, culinary and entertainment experience. Other newly announced talent for Vivid Music includes Holeandcorner, featuring at Home Nightclub during the Queen’s Birthday week, in an event which will see the club host its most varied electronic music line-up ever, including DJ’s Hot Chip and Mathew Dear, Guy J, Henry Sais and Cosmin TRG.

Cutting edge Brooklyn artists, Liars’, seventh studio album Mess has just been released. As The Quietus note - "They have an uncanny ability to switch from bizarre to beautiful, from lunatic chanting to moments of lustiness to a moment of vulnerability, without ever having to think about it too much, and always with a smirk of utter brilliance.” Porteño is collaborating with their favorite LA based record label Wild Records to present an unforgettable experience at Wild Porteño, a pop up restaurant / bar open each night of the Long Weekend. On Monday 9 June, they present the ultimate Porteño live experience with performances from Wild artists The Delta Bombers , Gizzelle and Luis & The Wildfires. VENUE - THE BASEMENT NGARRIE @ THE BASEMENT Details: Thursday, 29 May, the Basement, 29 Reiby Place, Circular Quay NSW Australia 2000 It’s safe to say it’s been an incredible 12 months for Australia’s future-soul beacon Ngaiire, who performed in front of over 100,000 people in support of Alicia Keys, John Legend, Cody ChestnuTT and a headline appearance at Tropfest. Not bad for the larger than life Sydney-via- PNG artist, who only debuted her first record Lamentations not 6 months ago. After four much-talked-about Australian tours, Ngaiire’s first Vivid show will introduce keen new audiences to a wild, deeply moving and renowned live performance featuring soon to be announced special guests. For Alicia Keys it might be a tour name, for Ngaiire ‘Set The World On Fire’ seems more and more like it might be a prophecy! BIG VISIONS Details: Wednesday June 4th, the Basement, 29 Reiby Place, Circular Quay NSW Australia 2000 Big Village presents a night of bass heavy audio and eye popping visual displays, amalgamated into a one off AV extravaganza. Featuring the creme of the Big Village crop, including avant guard beat brokers Suburban Dark, with special guest technician Ali infinite. Joining them we have the forever-eclectic future flavours of Robongia, showcasing his revamped visual hexagon display. With this and many other surprises in store, Big Village is set to ensure audiences receive a much needed shock to their sensory systems, for their midweek romp at Vivid Sydney. FISHING Details: Thursday June 5th, the Basement, 29 Reiby Place, Circular Quay NSW Australia 2000 Fishing are one of Australia's most exciting electronic acts and on June 5th they are launching their highly anticipated debut album at The Basement as part of Vivid Music. They will be joined by very special guests. This is their only album launch in Australia and is exclusive to Vivid. LANEOUS & THE FAMILY YAH’S PINK DOVE SHOW IV Details: Friday June 6th, the Basement, 29 Reiby Place, Circular Quay NSW Australia 2000 Brisbane’s Laneous & The Family Yah are returning from a 12 month hiatus with the massive ‘Pink Dove Show’ – a non stop review style show. Now in its 4th year, Pink Dove will see Brisbane’s beloved rat bags of Mutant Soul and Croon Punk deliver a mix of brand new material and re-imaginings from their entire catalogue (a staggering 9 releases) joined by a hand picked line up of their favourite acts both from within their own ranks and around the country – including MKO and more. Having pencilled in a vastly successful formula with Pink Dove’s I, II and III, Laneous and co are bringing out the felt pens for Pink Dove IV as they continue to grow their reputation as an act who are unafraid to colour outside of the lines. HALFWAY CROOKS Details: Saturday June 7th, the Basement, 29 Reiby Place, Circular Quay NSW Australia 2000 Halfway Crooks is a rap party for party people. Started in 2009 by rap-obsessed DJs Levins, Captain Franco and Elston, Halfway Crooks was a breath of fresh air for Sydney rap fans who didn’t want to hear the same tired classics at hp hop parties. Crooks has spent the last five years cramming 500+ people into small Sydney clubs each month to dance to a well rounded mix of new rap hits and forgotten classics from the East Coast, West Coast and the South of the States. In their first Vivid show, Halfway Crooks present a night of rap bangers with a special, soon to be announced guest joining them on stage! VENUE – HOME NIGHTCLUB HOLEANDCORNER Details: Sunday June 8th Home Nightclub, Darling Harbour Illusive and Funf Touring and Vivid Sydney will join forces for the launch of a unique travelling concept in Sydney.

This company was established by Keith Gallasch and Virginia Baxter in 1987 for the collaborative works they performed in theatres, galleries and on radio. In 1994 Open City began to publish RealTime+OnScreen which has been a fulltime operation since 1996.

And, lo, it was so. How many ideas have taken shape, been given form in the endless conversa- tion around that generous wooden table in the kitchen at Womerah Avenue, Darlinghurst where Gallasch and Baxter have lived since their arrival from Adelaide in 1986?
