Innocuous Laneway Party

Dance music deserves more than a 4am gronkfest; these guys are dragging it into the light of day.

Overview

Dance music has a pretty iffy reputation. Though it may give you one of the best nights of your life, it's always hidden in dark city hideyholes — the kind of rank, sticky-floored joints that you accidentally find yourself in at 4am. If that's the case, chances are that you won't even remember the tunes. But trust us, it deserves a whole lot more. To celebrate this thriving scene in a whole new way, dance collective and party specialists Innocuous are dragging this music into the daylight as part of Melbourne Music Week.

On Friday, November 21 these Melbourne locals will be hosting a huge laneway party at Somerset Place kicking off at 4pm. The space will be decked out with palm trees, packed full of likeminded music lovers, and boasting an independent record fair in Gallery One Three. Mokumo, Loose Joints, Move Your Feet and Out of Focus will be sharing the decks all afternoon, and then PWD, Baker St, Bacon Booty Disco and 6am at the Garage will be leading the afterparty from 11pm. Kick on from Thursday's Live Music Safari and grab your tickets here.
