Music<p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">One of deep house music’s true originators, Kerri Chandler injects soul to the courts this November. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">No one unites a dancefloor quite like Kerri Chandler. His sound is warm, life-affirming and deeply human. A shot of sunshine through speakers.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Rooted in soulful, authentic house music, Chandler’s influence stretches far beyond the booth. Through Kaoz Theory, he has championed contemporary talents including Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler and The Martinez Brothers, while his seminal imprint MadHouse Records recently celebrated 25 years of genre-shaping releases with a landmark anniversary album that tells the story of deep house itself.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Chandler came up in an era before rigid genres, when the only rule was connection. Growing up in New Jersey, surrounded by funk, soul, jazz, hip hop and gospel, he absorbed it all. Those early influences remain embedded in his sound today, allowing him to seamlessly join the dots between past, present and future. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Affectionately known as the Stevie Wonder of house music, Chandler has spent decades crafting timeless records rich in musicality and emotion. His work reaches far beyond the dance floor, drawing from the full spectrum of Black American music and culture, and reminding us that house music, at its core, is about soul, freedom, and shared experience.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">The day is completed by Sydney’s very own Simon Caldwell and Reenie, two artists whose energy sits perfectly in this landscape. Built on soul and made for the courts. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Simon Caldwell, a DJ, radio presenter and co-promoter of Sydney underground institution Mad Racket, brings deep, soulful house, techno, funk, jazz, electro, booty and hip-hop. Reenie, an FBI Radio and 2SER presenter, drummer, DJ and producer, brings a blend of expansive percussion, cosmic synths and electro-chug energy.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">A courts party that will go down in history.</p><p align="center">_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________</p><p align="center"><strong><u>TICKET DETAILS </u></strong></p><p align="center">Do not attend if you are feeling unwell.</p><p align="center">Photo ID is essential, acceptable ID is a current and valid Australian Photo Drivers Licence, State Approved ‘Proof of Age’ card or Passport.</p><p align="center"><br></p><hr><p align="center"><br></p><p align="center">We acknowledge that this event is held on the stolen lands of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation.
