- Melbourne outfit The Operatives will celebrate their 12th birthday on December 4th. The Australian collective have been pushing their fusion of hip-hop, electronic and soul music since 2004, partying with names like Floating Points, Flying Lotus and The Gaslamp Killer. To mark their 12th anniversary, The Operatives will bring Mark Pritchard to Batman Royale, a warehouse space north of Melbourne's CBD, where the Warp artist will perform with visuals from Jonathan Zawada. Pioneering reggae group The Congos will also appear alongside Mista Savona, and Rhythm Section International artist Silentjay plays live with some unannounced guests. Billy Davis, Due DILLAgence, Beatrice and Jesse I complete the bill.
