We create inclusive spaces for people to dance, connect and have fun. Having run a number of parties across Naarm, our goal is to facilitate social connections that go beyond the dancefloor and into the formation of communities that support, uplift and look out for each other all while ensuring everyone feels comfortable getting a bit silly on the dance floor. As DJ’s, the Succulent Funk team bring an exciting blend of House, Disco & more to the dance floor, often with a global twist. Our aim is to shift dance floor culture by creating dynamic installations that blend the past and present, fostering social connections and putting the spotlight on the partygoers, cultivating supportive and safe communities.
There’s nothing quite like dancing in a basement all night long, is there? Succulent Funk is returning once more to Collingwood Basement, and invite you to join us for an evening of smoke, sweat and soul.
Providing the musical musings for the evening, we welcome Simon Caldwell down from Eora/Sydney. A true inspiration, Simon has been behind the decks since the early 1990’s, leaving a trail of fevered dance floors in his wake. Simon is a resident/co-promoter of Mad Racket, a party institution of the Sydney scene, and hosts Sunset on Mondays on FBI Radio. Prepare for no sound to be untouched; no stone unturned; Simon consistently defies any and all attempts to box in his sound. Just the way we like it.
To kick things off and set the tone, we hand the keys to the club over to Sammy Sanchez. Known for her penchant for downtempo grooves, we’ve invited Sammy to unleash those late night club tracks we know she’s been keeping tucked away… Truly a party favourite, Sammy has played across many Naarm institutions including Spasta, Revolver Upstairs & Angel Music Bar, to name a few.
Plus resident Jasper Miles providing the Succulent Funk vibes you know and love.
To quote Etta James “Where can you party, child, all night long? In the basement. Down in the basement”.
