Lights, camera, action!

Also appearing on the bill, Golden Features and a host of other DJs. To see what went down, press play on the clip above.
From our perspective, we're full of love for the team at Carriageworks who provided us with exclusive, discounted tickets.
Add some triumph to your tax return
