Pitch Music & Arts Festival is excited to announce that Boiler Room will do an official broadcast from this year’s event. With both brands having reputations for hosting cutting-edge international acts alongside the scene’s most promising local artists, this is an enticing and promising proposition.

Evolving from the UK’s rich pirate radio heritage, Boiler Room has grown from a webcam taped on a warehouse wall to become the definitive showcase of new music worldwide. In just eight years Boiler Room has weaved itself into the fabric of dance music culture, boasting an envious back catalogue of live sets from the likes of Jamie XX, Thom Yorke, Chet Faker, Honey Dijon and ?uestlove.

Optimo (UK)

Optimo consists of the duo JD Twitch and JG Wilkes. They each have over 20 years DJ-ing experience and in the last decade have become both renowned and highly respected for their memorable and ecstatic deejay sets. Twitch and Wilkes exhibit a unique disregard for genres and musical restrictions in their craft, creating a nightclub experience that strikes out into territories far beyond the accepted boundaries of club music. soundcloud

Roman Flügel (GER) 

Roman Flügel is one of the most revered names on the German electronic music scene. Active since the early 1990’s, Flügel is a musical chameleon who can drift from ambient/IDM to house, techno, electro and leftfield. After devoting almost his entire life to music via countless aliases (such as Alter Ego, Soylent Green, Roman IV), he now focus on his solo productions for Dial, including 2011’s  ‘Fatty Folders‘  and 2014’s  ‘Happiness is Happening‘. His third album ‘All The Right Noises’ released in 2016, further explored his love of dancefloor music, while his 2017 fabric mix compilation reminded us just how adept he is at stitching DJ mixes together. soundcloud

Andy Garvey (AUS) 

Sydney-based artist Andy Garvey has identified herself as a key figure within Australia’s illustrious music scene. She received her radio wings with Sydney’s FBi community radio before gaining a countrywide following hosting Triple J’s The Mix Up. Behind the decks, a set from Andy Garvey always comes overflowing with uniquely intricate tracks that can fluctuate from techno to electro to breakbeats. Her original productions follow the same route, and her debut EP ‘Eternal Recurrence’, recently released on Lobster Theremin, is an exquisite example of her creative capabilities. soundcloud

Toni Yotzi (AUS) 

A tastemaker, innovator, and a fearless creative, Toni Yotzi is considered one of the most promising DJ’s Australia has to offer. Originally from Perth, Toni Yotzi developed her own sonic signature co-hosting the Full Frequency radio segment on RTR FM. Later relocating to Melbourne, Yotzi quickly found her creative feet to become one of the city’s key creatives. Her career highlights have seen her play at Inner Varnika and Golden Plains Festivals, and her most recent international endeavours have seen Toni Yotzi do guest mixes for Red Light Radio in Amsterdam and the notorious Beats In Space institution in New York. soundcloud

Merve (AUS)

A music aficionado through and through, Merve has spent a fair share of her time within the industry. Developing skills early in her career as a booker and artist manager, it didn’t take long for Merve to get behind the decks herself, gaining some serious traction with her infectious sets that encompass elements of house, funk, tribal and techno, earning her stage time alongside industry icons The Black Madonna, and Motor City Drum Ensemble. Having played at some of Australia’s most iconic festivals such as Golden Plains, Strawberry Fields, and Let Them Eat Cake, Merve is certainly one of Melbourne’s most exciting rising stars. soundcloud
