MOS’s Testament to dance

Over the decade’s, dimly lit and often secretive locations around the country have provided the backdrop to what is now known as the global phenomenon, Ministry of Sound.  From Australia’s acid house infancy, to the many reinventions of the rave, through the 90s and the 00s, communities were formed on the MOS dancefloors.  This unmatched era of nightlife has become the stuff of folklore and legend.

Ministry of Sound is taking its now iconic warehouse experience TESTAMENT around the country with an epic national tour which will run from the 4th to the 13th of August with the tour heading to Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Gold Coast, and Adelaide.  Presented over two specially curated sessions, the first event is dedicated to the 90s rave and its many variations, while the second will showcase the heyday of 00s club life.

TESTAMENT will pay tribute to the sounds and the people of these clubbing generations, and the late-night cities and cultures across the country which they cultivated.

Session One:

Alongside an impressive roster of each cities’ local DJ talent of the era, this tour welcomes global icons to the line-up including house music queen Barbara Tucker (USA), Detroit Techno pioneers Inner City (USA), English DJ/Producer Tall Paul (UK) and Phil Hartnoll of iconic UK acid-house-meets-trance duo Orbital, all bringing their 90s mastery to Session One.

Session Two:

For Session Two, audiences will be transported directly back to those fabulous naughties dancefloors with masked electro-punk and pioneers of American EDM The Bloody Beetroots (IT), Kitsuné 00s electronica darlings Digitalism (GER) and legends of breaks FreQ Nasty (NZ/UK), Stanton Warriors (UK) & Skool of Thought (UK).

Joining the national touring party are the Australian DJs synonymous with Ministry of Sound – Goodwill, John Course, Groove Terminator, Bang Gang Deejays and Mark Dynamix.  This group of DJ favourites have compiled and mixed album titles (The Annual, Sessions, Clubbers Guide, Mashed and more) which went on to sell millions of copies through the decades.
