We're playing the red-eye (2am - 4am), so make sure you hang around to collect your luggage!

Tickets are $20 + bf from Moshtix, so be sure to get 'em soon because this Flight will surely sell out...

On SoundCloud

Well I suppose it was inevitable...

Strangeways DJs have joined the cutting edge technology that is SoundCloud.

Here you will find all music/mashez/mixes available for listening pleasure, and just because we love you; downloadable!

http://soundcloud.com/strangeways-djs is where you'll find us...

Also featured on this fine site is a clever idea which I wish we'd had earlier: not one but TWO albums of pure Radiohead vs. Jay-Z mashups. This inspiration is titled 'Jadiohead' and you can check it out here.

Next Strangeways on the 10th of October, details to be released soon.

And remember, this election: Vote Strangeways!

Vote for Strangeways!

Dear Friends,

This election, Strangeways DJs stands for the part-ay, mad tunez and plenty of funtimes. Strangeways believes in your rights on the dancefloor, stopping the boredom and moving forward, side to side and around in circles in dance-like manouvres.

Most importantly, remember: Friends don't let friends vote for Pang!

This election, vote 1 STRANGEWAYS.

About Us

The fire that is STRANGEWAYS DJs was sparked in the wombs of their mothers. As first cousins (once removed) of each of the members of Australia's greatest ever musical export, the BEE GEES, TOMTOMZ, FIDEL MAESTRO and CHAIRMAN WOW all had musical blood coursing through their veins.

But it was only after a deep fraternal bond was established through years of free-spirited university education and a late night Wii party that the trio decided to unleash their passion on an unsuspecting public that were, quite frankly, not ready for it. Thus the STRANGEWAYS DJs were born!

Since their inception, STRANGEWAYS DJs have rolled deep with the musical intelligentsia of this fine land. The trio has, at one time or other: collaborated with FLIGHT FACILITIES on the wheels of steel, supported luminaries like the MIDNIGHT JUGGERNAUTS, GRAFTON PRIMARY and KIMBRA, replaced CUT OFF YOUR HANDS and PHDJ at the last minute, closed nights featuring THE ASTON SHUFFLE and NINA LAS VEGAS, rocked THE PURPLE SNEAKERS NYE HOUSE PARTY (twice), warmed up for acts like THE LIVING END and FRENZAL RHOMB at STONEFEST (in front of over 10,000 screaming fans) and covered clubs in fake grass, alfoil, french pastries and Bruce Willis masks for their legendary STRANGEWAYS parties.

Playing hits and notable misses from every conceivable chapter and verse in the bible of popular music, STRANGEWAYS DJs buck musical trends and elitist hipster snobbery with DJ sets that have inspired people to set things on fire, get naked, trash entire clubs, give fifty dollar tips and dance the macarena.

Hipper than the hop, fresher than the harvest, the only fire that can live in the rain: it's the STRANGEWAYS DJs.
