After nailing it at TRIPLE DROP, VIRUS SOUND SYSTEM clearly has a bad habit of popping gaskets whenever they cross paths. Piling on the sonic pressure is the newly established – although already white hot – TRIP HAZARD SOUND SYSTEM. Completing the triple is COE-XST PARTIES who are made of the most awesome family in Melbourne and bring all the vibes, plus they’ll be topping up their level with more speakers, more weight and more sound.
As you explore each level of the building expect to find all 3 systems slinging some of the heaviest, freshest, baddest, and quite arguably dopest collections of tunes available.

THE BUNKER: VIRUS SOUND SYSTEM
In addition to our residents Pixleton and Dutch Shultz and especially for TRIPLE DROP #2, VIRUS SOUND SYSTEM will be hosting two very special guests: HUDAZTEK (hard tekno), hailing from Denmark Hudaztek is part of a Danish Sound System – PRA. Hudaztek popped his cherry with Virus at STRAIGHT OUT OF GEDDES and made a lasting impression. Let’s Welcome him again.
New to the Virus stage is diverse and deep Naarm DJ and producer – WISER. Wiser has recently returned to Naarm after a hiatus in Berlin and is fully dedicated to bringing hard music to any rascals who are up for her unique style. We’re looking forward to this!
GROUND LEVEL: TRIP HAZARD SOUND SYSTEM
Anything but grounded, Trip Hazard Soundsystem will take you from the grubby and dubby depths of delirium to the peak of hedonistic acid house euphoria! As per Triple Drop #1 things will be kicked off with a couple of Melbournes baddest bass dealers Dub Siren and Lego who will get yer wubs a wubbling – just nice! As per usual Trip Hazard residents Jim Westlake and Andrew Law (Weekend Rush FM) will be bringing a combined 850 years of rave experience to the room so dust off yer ear trumpets and polish yer whistles!
Joining Trip Hazard for round 2 of Triple Drop we have Melbourne legends Izabel and Gavin Castle. Izabel has been going cross eyed behind the decks since 2009 and is behind the DubCake parties and Whiz FM show of the same name (naughty naughty!), she also puts the revs in Revolver each fortnight with her eclectic selections and will bring a plethora of musical nous to the blue and yellow rave machine. Gav is one of the brains behind Melbournes notorious Deep Chord nights and was getting Messy with the Messy Creations Crew back in the day, get yer scuba gear out and expect him to bring his deep knowledge of deep music!
“Trip Hazard, built by ravers for ravers”
TOP FLOOR: COE-XST PARTIES
COE-XST will no-doubt be slamming their style of techno from open to close.
ARIA award winning and founding member of legendary live techno act FSOM (future sound of Melbourne) – DJ STEVE ROBBINS will once again be playing his self produced tracks from the countless local and international releases he’s known for.
ADMINISTRATOR rocked the COE-XST FREE NYE outdoor rave so we’re welcoming them back! Expect a 1 hour DJ set followed by a 1 hour LIVE SET. This is going to be wicked!
Adding to the COE-XST chaos is DJ GLUG who’ll be bringing his hard groove techno and playing 100% vinyl. Not to be missed.
To complete the top-floor line-up is COE-XST’s founding members: DJ WAXX and MIXC.
Triple Drop #2 will be at full tilt at 10PM on Saturday April 1st. You’ll find the party via Geddes Lane in Melbourne’s CBD.
All three crews will no doubt bring their A-Game standard throughout the night. See you there!
