About this event

Venue address: Shop4/2 Frencham Pl, Downer ACT 2602, Australia, Downer, ACT, 2602, AU You already know what it is, Day 12 and it's easily the best one yet. Legendary, genre defining Jay Tripwire (CAN) alongside infamous DJ Las Vegas, industry legends skunks, and the local dark horses of the scene Dimebag, Trae Bashford and Babyxxhope. Starting at 3pm - going till late. Rock up early, support the scene, grab a ticket before you can't. Jay Tripwire With the rate at which the electronic music scene and its genre offshoots morph and change, it’s easy to overlook those artists that were there at the beginning pushing the scene the forward in interesting ways. Of course, some of these pioneering artists drift away and become less relevant, while others simply hang up the turntables altogether, but there are a handful of DJs and producers that have unwaveringly stayed ahead of the game, churning out tracks that even the brightest of young producers would be envious of. Canadian artist Jay Tripwire undoubtedly sits in the latter category. Since his first forays on the scene in the early ‘90s, Jay has released well over 300 vinyl records and countless digital projects on labels such as Superfreq, Nordic Trax, Bass Culture Records, Nervous Records, and Natural Rhythm, as well as DJing in every corner of the globe with an operating soundsystem. Although he considers himself a DJ first and foremost, Jay’s production savvy, output, and ability to stay one step ahead of the game is staggering. Alongside Mr. C, he’s is credited as being one of the first proponents of tech house, but his sound reaches well beyond the confines of any one genre; as long as there is groove involved, you can be assured Jay will provide his idiosyncratic take on it. DJ Las Vegas An infamous DJ who is rarely seen, rarely heard. Did he play that track at Dimensions a few years ago that is now selling for a ridiculous amount on discogs, or was that someone else? Apparently he was the only one using sustain and a release pedals at Sustain and Release 2025 last year. Also, some say he's actually never been to Las Vegas before? In 2019 he filed a lawsuit against H&M when they used a track of his without his permission, and now have been living of the royalties ever since. We don't really know who he is but his agent kindly gave us an opportunity to book him. Also, please know all First Nations receive free entry, and low income tickets are available as well - please email gigs@ganggangcafe.com.au to receive.
