Communal also aims to raise funds for the Aborigines Advancement League’s funeral funds, supporting families and communities through difficult times after the death of a loved one, by aiding families with financial and community support.
The Aborigines Advancement League was established in 1957 by Sir Pastor Douglas Nichols, Doris Blackburn, Stan Davey and Gordon Bryant in response to government mistreatment, neglect and deaths of Blak community members of the Warburton Ranges, WA. In the present day, they act as an organisation that create programs and initiatives to support and uplift their community.
Soju Gang
Renowned across the city and beyond for her energetic party mixes and equally energetic style and personality, Soju Gang AKA Sky Thomas, has established a booming platform to spotlight established and up-and-coming DJs and performers. Her parties are some of Melbourne’s best and her sets represent quality beyond question.
Pataphysics
Pataphysics is an acclaimed force within the Australian scene. His compositions have been featured in the National Gallery of Victoria and on numerous domestic and international TV networks, radio, film, TV and apps. His debut album Subversive was named among the top 15 releases that year by The Australian Music Prize (AMP). His albums have been the feature record on multiple stations, with singles holding No.1 on the Triple J Unearthed overall charts for consecutive weeks, culminating in successful national tours and overcapacity launches.
Anonymous Rappers
Some of the most talented MCs in the country, you may have been lucky enough to witness their work at Section 8 or The Beast previously. Expect high energy, wicked flows and a melting pot of cultural diversity. All worth checking out in their own right, together these artists are a force to be reckoned with.
