Terminal V Sydney 2026: What To Wear And What To Expect
Terminal V has built a serious reputation in techno, and the Sydney edition brings that energy to ivy on 17-18 October 2026. This is a different animal to a paddock festival – it’s an indoor, big-room techno event in the middle of the city, and it wants a different approach to what you wear and…
Back To The Origins: Eleven Years Into Dimension
Deep in a hidden Te Tai Tokerau/Northland valley, where a winding river meets ancient forest, something extraordinary is waking up for the eleventh time. From 5th to 8th February 2027, a quiet working farm near Nukutawhiti becomes Dimension: Origins Edition, four days that call us all the way back to the roots of Aotearoa’s psychedelic…
Octoblast 2026: The Complete Guide To Te Arai
Octoblast is one of those festivals that people in the know get quietly excited about months out. It lands in late spring on the Northland coast, it runs bass music, techno and psytrance across multiple stages, and it has built a reputation as a properly immersive weekend rather than just a lineup on a paddock.…
The Machines That Built Rave
Every scene has its instruments. Rock had the Stratocaster, jazz had the saxophone, and rave had a pile of second hand drum machines that nobody else wanted.

You know the feeling. You get home from a festival, peel off your coat, and it looks like it has been through a storm. The fur is flat in patches, there is a mystery stickiness on one sleeve, and the whole thing smells faintly of smoke and someone else’s night out. Here is the good…
Do Healing Frequencies Actually Work?: 432 Hz, Solfeggio Tones, Binaural Beats And What Really Moves A Dancefloor.
If you have spent any time in the wellness corners of YouTube, you have met the solfeggio tones. 174 Hz for pain relief. 396 Hz to release fear. 528 Hz, the so-called love frequency, supposedly capable of repairing your DNA.

Super Fruit D-Floor Rolla’s: The Roll Up That Survives A Whole Festival
There is a moment at every festival, usually in the early hours of the morning, when your body tells you that the last thing you ate was a $14 hot chip at 4pm the previous day. The queue for food is forty deep. Your tent is a fifteen minute walk away. You have no cash,…
Festival Palaces: How To Build A Camp That Survives The Weekend
You know the walk. The psytrance stage has finally let you go, the sky is doing that horrible pale thing over the pines, your legs have the structural integrity of wet noodles, and all you want is to lie down somewhere that isn’t a paddock. Then you get back to camp and it’s a dark,…

We’ve already covered the basics: raving is good for your heart, your mood and your sense of community. But what’s actually happening inside your skull when the bassline drops and you stop thinking and just move? It turns out the science of flow states, rhythmic entrainment and collective euphoria maps almost perfectly onto the rave…

If your ears have ever rung on the drive home from a gig, that was your hearing filing a complaint. Ringing ears are a sign of noise damage, and unlike a hangover, hearing damage doesn’t reset by Monday – it accumulates over every festival, club night and gig for the rest of your life. The…
