*Renegade Areas (Saturday)*

*Panic Stricken Bovine*

Since the start of the millennium the Bovines have been involved in of a large number of different events including a free NYE party, a series of day club recoveries, a show for techno legend DJ Misjah, collaborations with the Melbourne Techno Collective and Massive and two Australian tours for US techno star Adam Jay. This will be the Bovine's 1st appearance. Techno shenanigans at it's finest.

*Virus*

For six years Virus has been urging the Melbourne Masses to lose it on the dance floor. Renown for its notorious club nights, hosting International guests to bonafide, underground warehouse gigs, there's no doubt that no-holds-barred, full-on Party Mayhem are synonymous with the Virus name. A renegade tent installed with The Virus Sound System and a techno line up from Panic Striken Bovine - get ready for some Outdoor dance floor mayhem!

*Riverside Beats Soundsystem *

Let Timmy and his merry goons entertain you riverside with mental beeps, bleeps and twisted stuff we can't even define. Mark Hogan cameo appearances, dancing Muppets, mysterious gnomes and yes the "must not miss" commentary on the boat race. Music to float swim or sunbake to, on your beanbag, lilo or hammock. Slump to the funky sounds, and chill out for a while. Please take all your rubbish away with you and think about those downstream.
