Future Classic Is Taking over City Recital Hall for a 20th Birthday Bash Starring Emma Louise, Sycco, Touch Sensitive and More
Two hours of tunes from some of the record label's biggest names, all to celebrate 20 years of music.
Record label Future Classic is turning 20 years in the business, and to celebrate, it's taking over one of Sydney's most prominent venues for one hell of a party. From small beginnings in the club scene to representing huge names in both Australia and the United States, there's plenty the label has to toast to.
Spanning three stages at City Recital Hall on Friday, February 27th, the celebration will consist of hours of music, dancing, and discovery, honouring the label's two decades of fostering community, innovation, and creativity. The event is 18+.
From its early days of throwing underground club nights, Future Classic has grown into an international powerhouse. Now home to a record label, management, publishing, and events team with headquarters in both Sydney and Los Angeles, they've been instrumental in the careers of acts including Flume, Chet Faker, SOPHIE, G Flip, Flight Facilities, Hayden James, Sycco, Wafia, Ta-ku, and more.
They've released hundreds of records, amassed billions of streams, and earned multiple ARIA and Grammy Awards, all while remaining Australian-owned and independently run.
The one-night-only show will bring together some of the label's most beloved artists for an unforgettable birthday celebration.
ARIA-nominated singer-songwriter Emma Louise will deliver a rare and spellbinding performance, while Brisbane singer-songwriter and producer Sycco will appear with her slew of hits. And Italo-disco maestro Touch Sensitive will recruit his full live band for a career-spanning performance, including his recent album In Paradise.

Also taking the stage will be Chilean selector Paula Tape, Atlanta-based DJ and producer Nikki Nair, local hero Panama, the lush creations of Tentendo, and a customary appearance from Future Classic DJs. Plus, expect some very special surprise guests B2B during the night.
Future Classic have also launched a special archival website, giving music lovers a chance to take a trip down memory lane, while we await the celebrations in the new year. Check it out here.
