Rejoice, Australian earthlings, because Modular Touring & Michael Coppel can confirm that, FINALLY, Daft Punk will bring their now legendary pyramid spectacular to Australia for four live shows of blind-siding robot rock at Never Ever Land, this December.
Never Ever Land is a utopian dreamland: a one day live show and party from tomorrow that features magical music from a seemingly faraway place, conveniently packaged and delivered to you at 4 open air locations around Australia to kick start the summer.
Never Ever Land will be expanding realities around the country on the following dates:
FRIDAY DECEMBER 14TH – SIDNEY MYER MUSIC BOWL – MELBOURNE
SUNDAY DECEMBER 16TH – THE ESPLANADE – PERTH
(Subject to City of Perth’s approval)
THURSDAY DECEMBER 20TH – THE RIVERSTAGE – BRISBANE
SATURDAY DECEMBER 22ND – MAIN ARENA, SYDNEY SHOWGROUND – HOMEBUSH, SYDNEY
Accompanying the seminal daft robots is a line up that has been hand picked from Around The World:
• The Presets have notched up enough frequent flyer miles in the last couple of years to go with Richard Branson to the moon and back, but have not played on Australian soil for some time. These will be amongst their last shows before they unleash album #2 on the world.
• SebastiAn and Kavinsky are from the Ed Banger stable of French producers currently tearing up dancefloors around the globe. SebastiAn has risen to notoriety through his ball-busting remixes of the likes of Cut Copy, Bloc Party, The Rapture and Kelis, while Kavinsky is the scene’s man of mystery, with nary a photo to be seen and the excellent Teddy Boy and 1986 EP’s to his name.
• Muscles has gone from a myspace phenomenon to a living breathing festival slaying one man band, with already-anthems Ice Cream and Sweaty in his canon converting fans all around the world. Fresh from supporting Soulwax in the UK and touring Europe, Muscles will hold it down solo at Never Ever Land.
• What more can be said about The Bang Gang Deejays that hasn’t been sung already, the premier party DJ’s, the hosts with the absolute most, the guys that put the why in party, Never Ever Land could simply not be imagined without The Bang Gang. Realise.
More to be announced shortly.
