This Brunswick warehouse is scrapping curfew for a punk-electronic collision

Head On hits a Brunswick warehouse next month with no curfew and all the chaos.

Head On is where punk collides with electronic music in a rare late-night Brunswick warehouse session.

Running from 10pm Saturday through to 5am Sunday, this is live music without the clock ticking down, without last drinks being called just as things hit their stride. Head On transforms an inner-north venue into something Melbourne’s live music scene desperately needs more of — a space with an actual licence to let the night run its course.

Dr Sure’s Unusual Practice return fresh off their biggest European tour yet, riding momentum straight into a premier slot at Meredith Music Festival. The Melbourne art-punk outfit have spent years refining their blend of post-punk, synth-punk and outsider-pop with a fierce DIY spirit, and they’re bringing that energy back home for one night of warehouse chaos.

Head On – Brunswick

Joining them is LA-via-Melbourne’s Zaftig, an aural hedonist whose cinematic sound fuses dark 80s energy with heavy EBM bass, Italo arps and new beat grit. Her sets are built on analogue synths, hypnotic melodies and relentless rhythms; the kind of seductive, high-voltage dancefloor experience that demands a venue willing to let things play out properly.

CLAMM and Tongue Dissolver round out the live acts, while T-Rek and Head On DJs keep the warehouse moving between sets.

Head On isn’t just another Saturday night; it’s a reminder of what’s possible when live music is allowed to breathe past midnight, when punk energy meets electronic persistence, and when a venue actually has the licence to let it all happen until sunrise.
