Melbourne's harder circuit gets a serious workout at Stamina this weekend - keep up the pace.

Stamina keeps the intensity up this weekend, and 29 August’s lineup might be one of its heaviest yet. Rory Marshall headlines Banana Alley Vaults, joined by Elsewhere, JUJU222 and Kerf.

Rory Marshall leads the bill as one of the scene’s most credentialed producers and an established label head in his own right.

His EP Late Night Specialist made history as the first release from an artist other than Carl Cox on 23rd Century Records in 15 years, and it climbed high on the Beatport techno charts on the way through.

Support has followed from Adam Beyer, Anfisa Letyago, Maceo Plex and Rebuke, alongside releases via Patrick Topping’s Trick imprint and Eric Powell’s Bush Records.

Joining him is Elsewhere, whose résumé includes two Beyond The Valley appearances plus slots at A3 Festival, Aura and Hive – a run of credits that’s cemented him as one of Melbourne’s harder circuit’s most consistent presences.

JUJU222 and Kerf round out the direct support, with further sets from Alcatrax, Bri, Graceless Grace and Noah Power keeping the night moving from open to close.

With eight names across the bill and a headliner boasting one of the more significant label milestones in recent memory, this edition of Stamina is shaping up as a genuine test of endurance for anyone planning to stay the distance.

Rory Marshall’s cross-continental support list alone – spanning some of techno’s biggest names – gives a sense of the calibre this lineup is pulling from, while Elsewhere’s festival pedigree adds another heavyweight name to an already stacked night.

Banana Alley Vaults’ underground setting adds to the occasion, giving the night a suitably heavy backdrop for a lineup built around relentless, high-tempo programming.

Between the headline pairing and six further support acts, there’s little room to catch a breath once the night gets going.
