PitchBlack celebrates its first birthday in style, with two of the dance scene’s biggest acts set to rumble the Halo walls this September! Introducing to Hobart for the first time, “9th Insight” [Master Kaos + LCK] (Melb), who, having played main stage at practically every Pharmacy party in the last few years, are leading the way with their inventive and intelligent style and sound, incorporating hard trance, techno, breaks, hip hop and scratching (using a QFO!) into their unique sets. Also gracing us with her presence will be Bass Station resident “Jewelz” (Melb), whose signature dark ‘n’ dirty trance sound has seen her play some of the biggest parties in Australia, including Two Tribes, Summadayze, Slinky, Godskitchen, Pharmacy and Earthcore! Time to turn off the lights and crank up the sounds, for what should be one of the parties of the year! Bring your party hats, black is back!

Jewelz (Melb)
Every now and then a DJ will come along that brings something extra special to the dancefloor. Whether it be through razor-sharp mixing skills, an impeccably woven web of sounds or a deeply intimate connection with the dancefloor that borders on the spiritual, there are some DJs out there that propel the experience of hearing music to a whole new level. As a DJ, Jewelz is all this and more. Jewelz brings something to the craft of DJing that transcends the simple practice of beat mixing. From her signature dark ‘n’ dirty trance sound, to the filthiest acid basslines, toughest form of progressive and the crunchiest brand of techno, Jewelz seamlessly combines them all to produce pleasurably wicked floor-shaking soundscapes, inspiring even the most po-faced of punters into a blissed-out state of shuffling hysteria. No surprise that she is now regarded as one of Australia’s leading DJs, coming in at no.27 (no.6 overall in Victoria) in ITM’s prestigious Top 50 poll this year. An essential addition to any line-up, Jewelz regularly plays the biggest events in Australia, including Two Tribes, Summadayze, Slinky, Godskitchen, Pharmacy and Earthcore. Here versatile playing style has seen her support DJs as diverse as Carl Cox, Satoshi Tommie, Paul Oakenfold, Scot Project, Infected Mushroom and Dutch tech trance wunderkind Marzz, among many others.

9th Insight (Melb)
The creative talent of Master Kaos and LCK joined forces to create the 9th Insight in 2003. They will blow the minds of all who witness their wizardry, creating a path for newcomers to recognize and pursue a new edge on DJing, incorporating hard trance, techno, breaks, hip hop and scratching. They are dedicated to taking DJing to a level never seen before in the dance scene. Infecting people with their innovation, and with a busy schedule through the year, not only the 9th insight, but all of us as a whole, will have a different look at what we define as DJing as the 9th Insight storms ahead towards something new. Having played alongside such talent as Carl Cox, ASYS, Cosmic Gate, Yoji Biomehanika, Fred Baker, Proteus, Scot Project, Uberdruck, Thilo & Evanti, Derb, Walt, Showtek, Organ Donors, Steve Hill, Alex Kid, D - 10, Kamui, K90, Alex Szahala, RX, Energy Dai, Thomas P. Heckmann, Thomas Schumacher to name a few, 9th Insight have proved they have what it takes to play with the world’s best.
