WHERE: Tatler, Sydney
Come join us with for a small intimate party with detroits finest......
Mike Huckaby, Detroit, USA.
Tastemaker, Educator, Sound Designer, and Motor City Proponet. Mike Huckaby has done much for Detroit electronic music. The man behind the once legendary Record Time store has gathered an encyclopedic knowledge of music.
He is one of those guys who knows all the roots and culture of electronic dance music. He is a person who can see beyond the hype and divisions within the scene. Mike knows exactly what t
he music is.
Mike Huckaby has become the busiest remixer from Detroit in the past few years. Mike has been busy producing music on his 2 labels, Deep Transportation, and S Y N T H, which are well known amongst underground djs worldwide.
With highly acclaimed deep house productions and remixes for Deepchord, Juan Atkins, Vladislav Delay, Pole, Loco Dice, LoSoul, and Pacou,
(just to name a few ) Mike sees no end in the near future. Furthermore, Mike Huckaby has been touring, djing, and teaching music production with Native Instruments and Ableton software at Youthville, and around the globe extensively. When the discussion of the Detroit / Berlin connection comes to mind, Tresor or Hardwax is usually discussed. But the Detroit / Berlin connection of the millenium and beyond is taking place at Youthville with the assistance of Ableton and Native Instruments, and the work Mike is doing there.
Mike brings the Detroit sound of deep house and techno with him. He knows the balance between deep house and techno like no other.
Promoters know that they can put Mike Huckaby in any room

WHERE: Secret Location, Melbourne
Where?House will see an iconic Melbourne space transformed into a temporary concert venue and multi-function Hub of the Melbourne Music Week.
It's been a long time coming and in March of 2012 we saw the first in a series of electronic musical experiences with both high level multimedia and full length performances by both local and international talent, This is CAPACITY.
Where compromise is checked at the door and tickets are sold only to the limitations of the venue, Capacity literally means Capacity. Go
ne are promoter djs, Industry tickets, discounted whatever and we return to performance based musical experiences. Guests have spanned the globe including Oscar Mulero from Madrid, Alexkid from Berlin and Kyle Hall via Detroit.
At this year’s Melbourne Music Week, we are going to the next level with Capacity 1000. We see the return of techno-funk godfather of Detroit, Mike Huckaby. From educator to sound designer, and not to mention his busy tour schedule, “the Huck” is a man of endless talents.
For the first time in almost 10 years, UK turntable master Ben Simms makes his way to Australia. His effortless control over multiple channels is simply mind bending and his barrage of labels have been infamous in the electronic music scene for well over 15 years.
As something unique to Where?House, we will showcase for the first time in Australia a sort of super techno band, Four By Four. This 100% live creation of four iconic Melbourne producers will take the stage for two hour live experience featuring Honeysmack, Steve Law, Voiteck and Two4k on a full live analogue rig spanning 10 meters and collectively over 60 years experience performing live electronic music.
Mike Buhl [Moodmusic] , Matt Radovich [ Melbourne Techno Collective] and PWD [The Public Works Dept.] are long time Melbourne favourites and will ensure the big guns have the pressure on the local front.
