EXTENDED SUNSET DJ SET
Sydney's Jimmy Lyell and Hugo Gruzman have spent nearly two decades soundtracking summers around the globe, and this February they join us at Southwave for a special extended set to take the Rainforest dancefloor from day to night.
Founded in 2008 at the height of Sydney's club scene, Flight Facilities arrived fully formed.
Crave You became an instant cultural shorthand for Australian summer. Their 2014 debut Down To Earth (Future Classic) cemented them as more than a moment, and sophomore album FOREVER, featuring Channel Tres, DRAMA, and Broods, proved the depth of their vision.
The collaborator list reads like a fever dream: Kylie Minogue, Reggie Watts, Dixon, Chloe Caillet, Folamour, Dom Dolla, Crazy P, Marvin Gaye. Their 2024 Glitterbox debut Dancing On My Own (with DRAMA) is the kind of soulful disco cut that sounds like it's always existed. Latest single RUN channels Loleatta Holloway's 1977 Runaway, urgent, soulful, and built for peak hour.
A billion streams. 70,000+ fans across their Forever Tour. Coachella twice. Ibiza, annually. In the DJ booth, they play like selectors who've earned the right to take their time: extended sets that move from disco edits to underground classics to guests nobody saw coming, blissfully deaf to last orders.
Trend-agnostic by design. Timeless by result.
