Back! & Will Saul live at Apres, Sydney

So, with a slight blog hiatus over the past few weeks and with work out of the way I have returned with many a article and interview trailing behind...

To kick things off Future Classic have been running their Sunday Afternoon sessions, Apres, here in Sydney for close to 3 years often with internationals guests, and often completely unannounced.

Will Saul is one such example who recently toured Aus launching his latest Balance 15 Compilation. After playing in the Cave at Chinese Laundry the night before Will popped in to play an encore set of chilled deep house, deep-disco and Balearic sounds. A great accompaniment to the Sydney Summer and a set I thought in need of spreading!

Will Saul live at Apres, Tilbury Hotel Sydney

Every week for close to 3 years Future Classic has been hosting a laidback Sunday afternoon event at the Tilbury Hotel in Woolloomooloo, Sydney. A BBQ, friendly bar staff & balcony in the sunshine have set the scene for these under-the-radar sessions with that give our local and international guests the chance to play more diverse sets than they would in the club.

Previous guests have included Brennan Green, Joakim, Mock & Toof, Lovefingers, Aeroplane, Canyons, Jamie Lloyd, Padded Cell, Idjut Boys, Foolish Felix, Todd Terje, Sidwho?, Loin Brothers, Jazzanova, Karsten John, Jimi Polar, Marcus Worgull, The Revenge, Yam Who?, Peret Mako, Arto Mwambé, Move D, Roland Appel, Dave Aju, Trus' Me, Jacques Renault, Will Saul & Woolfy to name a few, along with fc residents Nathan McLay & Chad Gillard.

This Sunday 22nd November we launch the 4th and final installment of our Aprés vinyl series featuring music by Lithuania's Mario Basanov and remixes by Arithmatix!, Downtown party Network, 6th Borough Project & Newfoundland and the final piece of artwork in the series by Gemma Smith, whose spacious geometric abstraction portrays the balearic contents of the music.

Gemma has exhibited in curated and solo exhibitions in Australia and overseas. She was in this years Primavera at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney as well as Contemporary Australia: Optimism, at the Gallery of Modern Art, Queensland Art Gallery, in Brisbane. She is currently doing a residency in Paris.
