PROGNOSIS 5th Bday – 20th Feb @ LOOP
For the last five years on the third Saturday of every second month, a small group of us have been heading to a little bar called Loop in Melbourne’s CBD to play music we feel very passionately about. What started off as a small gathering of friends, has turned into something much bigger than we ever thought possible. Not only has it offered us the platform to push music we’d never previously have had the chance to play, but it’s also helped nurture all of our music and DJ careers.
Through Prognosis we’ve hosted some of Australia’s finest underground DJs and producers – people whom we have idolized since we first got into electronic music. Friendships have been strengthened, new relationships kindled, and some of the biggest hangovers of our lives have been experienced. Quite simply, Prognosis has played host to some of the best nights of our lives.
On February 20th we’ll be celebrating the only way know how. Amazing music, up-front visuals and truckloads of delicious cocktails and beer. We really hope you can make it, because without the support from all of you, we sure as hell wouldn’t have gotten this far. <3
We’ve been in this game for 5 years dropping prog tunes…
Ever since Loop was using one-thousoons…
Now it’s ‘twenty sixteen and they rocking 2ks…
Screens shining, looking like a robbed computer game…
It’s all good, from Meyers Lane to the Bay…
Melbourne is the bomb if the crowd is rockin away…
Throw up a finger if you feel the same way…
Murphy, J, Static & Grig putting it down for Prognos-i-aye!
Don’t mind us getting all gangster but we’re pretty fkn excited about turning 5. And as if your jiblets weren’t tickled enough, not only will Feb 20th signal our debaucherous birthday celebrations but it’s also the same evening as White Night! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeboi!
Still not excited? Let us drop some knowledge. For this edition we knew we needed to bring the heat so we’ve invited local prog-maestro, GMJ aka Gavin Martin, to headline festivities, signifying his first club gig in over three years! After absolutely decimating the Market Stage at Rainbow Serpent we were all in agreeance that Gav couldn’t be a better choice to headline such a momentous occasion, and with a career spanning near on two decades, having played all over the world and supporting some of the biggest names in the underground music scene, we’re sure you’ll agree that it was a wise decision.
The rest of our guests were also selected with the same gangstah-vibe in mind with long-time supporters Dave Juric, Louay, Alex David and Moskalin coming along for the ride whilst Doesn’t Matter stalwart, Cookie, keeps things fresh with his debut under the ‘Nosis flag.
Need more FIRE? Aight, how’s this sound… the myth, the man, the legend that is Azz Dawg, aka Aaron Static, is gon’ b step step stepping up from his usual opening slot-time to deliver a later set of peak-time tuna. With the man soon to be pissing-off overseas to pursue career prospects this will sadly be one of the last sets he plays for us.
So you remember how we said it was White Night? Well our world-renowned resident VJ, vdmo Kstati, will be projecting his mind-bending visual delights over Loop’s two 30ft screens for the duration. Lastly, our fooly-sick head-G’s J-Slyde and Simon Murphy, fresh from slaying crowds at Rainbow Serpent, will round out what is set to be one for the record books.
We really hope you can make it!
