Melbourne's high-energy spinner is unveiling something new at Stamina this Saturday night.

In a city of a thousand DJs, Luke Hovey’s somehow managed to set himself apart from the rest. Known for his loud, crazy and energetic sets, he’s made a name for himself across Australia and internationally, solidifying his rule with a recent Beyond The Valley set that had fans naming him the best of the fest.

Fresh off an Australian tour as well as a highly praised European run, he’s touching down at Stamina to show us how it’s done. And legend has it, he’s got something exciting planned – the launch of a new sound, harder than ever before.

With plenty of unreleased tracks behind him and support from scene veterans like Ki/Ki, Somewhen, VTSS and ØTTA, Hovey’s definitely one to watch.

Rounding out the bill are fellow lovers high BPMs and long nights, including Emi Baz, Axlmore, Anreal, Panic b2b Zenith and Alcatrax, so if you’re into speed, drive and non-stop energy, this night’s not one to miss.

Stamina continues its reign as Melbourne’s premier destination for hard techno and hard bounce, transforming the historic Banana Alley Vaults into a gritty industrial temple every Saturday night.

Housed in century-old heritage-listed vaults at 375 Flinders Street, Stamina delivers world-class production across three rooms, including imported NEXO sound systems and kilometres of neon that amplify the raw underground energy. Since opening in late 2025, the venue has quickly become the city’s go-to for no-BPM-limits raves, blending local fire with touring talent and relentless party atmosphere.

The 18+ nights capture Melbourne’s hunger for harder sounds, offering an intimate yet festival-grade experience in a truly unique setting. Expect sweat-drenched sets, serious bass pressure and that unbreakable community vibe Stamina has cultivated week after week.
