With over 30 years of combined event experience, two of Melbourne’s longest running clubbing institutions MACHINE & TECHNOIR come together for all things Techno, spread over two levels each with topflight Funktion One sound system. There is always differentiation between cold and hot, hard and soft, dark and light, dry and wet, distinct and indistinct; MACHINE & TECHNOIR exists in this duality and celebrates the diversity: old and young, queer and bent, gender fluid and gender neutral, and all kinds of orientations clear and murky. We invite you into the mix for the nighttime adventures to come.

XAVIER MOREL / MX. (Machine Label) France It's not every day the opportunity comes around to stand in the sound of an artisan electronic practioner. Xavier Morel is one such artist that will favour Melbournians with such an opportunity, as he headlines MACHINE x TECHNOIR . Music and art can very much touch us with the essence of symmetry, balance, fluidity, cohesion whilst their counterparts: dis-juncture, chaos, inertia, provide the tension that makes for the through line: Story.
No wonder then that Morel, a verteran of over 35 years as a producer and dj speaks in such terms. In these days where the distinction between artist and playlist are becoming less distinct, the essence of audio art is becoming distilled in it's import. "The most important concept in music is not the way you play your tracks but the story you make with them! Mixing and music is my passion and my career. I hope to carry and share this as long as possible!" - Xavier Morel
