Australian, but living in Germany now.

Nice to see, there are also minimal lovers @ home...

The simple fact of the matter is that the music just dosent have the support at the moment. Many parties are starting to lay claim to pushing the sound but i haven't heard a complete minimal set from anyone in......???

But summer is just around the corner and Sydney is a city of followers a good year behind the rest of the world. Hopefully those parties that appeared on the radar will come back and build a faithfull following as for us to improve the scene.

I guess time will tell....

Australia electronic music scene in general, and sydney (maybe?) more so than melbourne, tend to follow the uk electronic/dance scene. Which is why the whole zabiela breaks/prog thing is so dominant.

One thing that I've noticed (at least in Melbourne) is that there is a huge gulf between rock and electronic music, and in general the popular trend seems to swing between the two.

I had the impression that QLD wasn't much good for minimal so if you were in that part of Australia for the whole 6 months that would explain it.

Still more happening there than in NZ though

[stereotypes = on]

But all they do in QLD is drink rum and fight, there's no minimal there!

[stereotypes = off]

Apparently, I'm being set up for a gig in Melbourne sometime while I'm down there. As soon as I find out the deets, I'll post them here.
