On June 16 2018, two cultural institutions collaborate for their fourth consecutive year as Red Bull Music returns to Hobart as part of the Museum of Old and New Art’s Dark Mofo festival in Tasmania. Leading this instalment of the Red Bull Music Presents series is acclaimed Sydney duo Jagwar Ma, performing alongside Tornado Wallace, NO ZU and Lauren Hansom, in a genre-blurring, immersive and conceptual display of stage and club comradery.
Red Bull Music Presents Jagwar Ma invites attendees to slip into the night and experience some of the country’s greatest selectors and live purveyors of all-consuming, electronically rooted sound. Supplementing the sonic elements is audio-visual artist, and Aphex Twin collaborator, Jim Warrior, who will transform Dark Mofo’s MAC2 via mesmeric light installations to heighten the evening into a mind-bending spectacle. In close collaboration between Red Bull Music and Jagwar’s Jono Ma, Warrior will follow in the heights of audio-visual artist Robin Fox and Red Bull Music’s 2017 offering, Transliminal, to present a full-scale immersive encounter between light, vision and multi disciplinary sounds.

A global phenomenon born from Sydney bands Lost Valentinos and Ghostwood, Jagwar Ma’s Jono Ma and Gabriel Winterfield will headline Red Bull Music Presents on Saturday June 16. Performing tracks off their critically-lauded second album Every Now & Then, acid-tinged debut Howlin, as well as unheard material from their next rumoured release, the pair bring their explorative, sonic vibrations to MAC2. Having toured the world with Tame Impala, Foals and The xx, the pair craft a live performance that journeys from sunny rave-up moments, deep and dubby club jams, to the outer echelons of techno euphoria – all the while setting the stage for enlightenment through live sound and vision.
Joining Jagwar Ma will be Melbourne forerunner of the city’s new wave in electronic music, Tornado Wallace. Having spent time between the Victorian capital and Berlin, the producer has fast become a force to be reckoned with, finding co-signs with ESP Institute, Gerd Janson’s Running Back and local Melbourne label, Animals Dancing. An artist with an undeniable impact on dancefloors at home and abroad, Wallace’s selections are a welcome addition to Red Bull Music Presents.

Eight-piece, body-music heroes NO ZU travel south from Melbourne on June 16. Their brazen brand of heat beat and heart chugging basslines have ensured their deep grooves remain at the forefront of many an attendee’s fondest club memories. The group will bring their mix of no-wave, boogie, dub and disco to Red Bull Music Presents, no doubt shrouded in smoke as a mutant dance party for all to revel in.

Sydney DJ Lauren Hansom will tend to opening affairs on the night. From mainstay stints on local community station FBi Radio, to appearing on NTS and supporting the likes of Palms Trax, Jayda G and John Talabot, Hansom weaves through jazz, acid, industrial and electro with outwardly open ease.

Having previously showcased Japanese noise rock pioneer Tetsuro Yamatsuka for EYE: CIRCOM, Tim Hecker and Marcel Weber’s multi-sensory Ephemera and four nights of an industrial scale rave led by DJ Harvey, Legowelt, Juliana Huxtable and Maurice Fulton for Transliminal, Red Bull Music once again curates a transcendental and innovative stage and club experience. Celebrating some of Australia’s brightest and most forward-thinking talent, Red Bull Music Presents Jagwar Ma will bring club goers together for a mesmerising and conceptually immersive night.
