Line-up

+ Dominic Talarico
+ Ailsa Liu
__________________________
Slim Set is a Western Sydney rap duo made up of MC Dev and DJ Atro. Drawing from grime, club music and MC culture as their references, the boys are coming at Aussie hip hop head on. Not content with regurgitating boom bap (like their predecessors) or trap (like their peers), Slim Set’s hybrid, high-octane sound is an anomaly within the Australian hip hop landscape.
Kimchi Princi is an independent artist with a fetish for WI-FI. Her fantastical visions expand across lyrics, production, performance, music videos and DJ sets. As a rapper, her lyrics are known to reach into the guts of millennial tensions across culture, excess and desire. She is currently working with Australia's pioneering club producers for her debut album, PRINCI, due for release in mid-2018.
Dominic Talarico is a pop musician from Western Sydney and has long been one of its best kept secrets, performing and releasing music for more than a decade. Themes within his songs often explore the heights of desire and the unexpected turbulence that it can bring with an earnestness that can make your heart ache.
Ailsa Liu is an artist who creates work across mediums of experimental fiction and poetry, soundscapes, installation. Her soundscapes are informed by texture and layering of sounds, field recordings of urban spaces, found recordings and personal narratives. She is a member of the Finishing School writing collective and All Girl Electronic, a Western Sydney electronic music collective.
