Denis Sulta and the Art of the Back to Back

Mall Grab Returns Home with a High-Energy Set for Boiler Room Melbourne

 once deemed a Mall Grab show as “the first great rave of the year.” The Australian-raised, London-based producer is known for his lofi ode to classic house. Born Jordon Alexander, the young artist began DJing when he was 12, mostly using his father’s Talking Heads records. By the late 2000’s, he was avidly following the influential French electronic music label Ed Banger. The label focused particularly on French house, but also featured alternative dance, electro, hip hop, nu disco, and synthpop. It’s clear the wide musical taste of his childhood had an effect on young Alexander’s ear.

 EP brought his lo-fi house sound out of the rabbit holes of YouTube and into the mainstream. The four tracks carry a dusty, vaguely far off sound, which gets layered over drowsy, throwback four by four beats. His follow up EP, 

earned a nod from Pitchfork for the track “Drive.” The music magazine asks candidly of the track, 

“did Australian producer Mall Grab invent rainforest techno?”

Now operating full-time out of the UK, the producer likes to reserve mainly unreleased tracks and deep cuts for his live shows. He’s been consistently praised for his live shows, some saying that it’s in the club where he “does the realest damage.”

In mid-2022, Mall Grab announced the upcoming release of his debut, 13-track LP,  

The album is set to drop in August of 2022 via his own imprint, Looking For Trouble, which the artist first founded in 2018. Supporting the album are a few pre-released singles, including 

, an hardcore-leaning hard-hitter featuring Turnstile frontman Brendan Yates.

‘What I Breathe’ will feature artists like Nia Archives, Novelist, D Double E, and Mall Grab under an additional alias, a dream-pop solo project which will appear in the final track, ‘Lost in Harajuku’.

Glastonbury Festival, officially known as the 

Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts

, is a world-famous event celebrated for its diverse and extensive lineup of music, dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret, and other arts. Located at Worthy Farm in Somerset, England, the festival has grown from a small gathering in 1970 to a major cultural phenomenon attracting around 200,000 attendees annually.

The inaugural Glastonbury Festival was organized by Michael Eavis, a local farmer, who was inspired after seeing an open-air Led Zeppelin concert at the nearby Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music. The first event, then called the Pilton Festival, was held the following year and featured Marc Bolan as its headliner. Attendees were charged £1 for admission, which included free milk from the farm. This set the stage for what would evolve into a legendary annual event, deeply intertwined with the counterculture movements of the 1970s and beyond.

Throughout the years, Glastonbury has remained steadfast in its commitment to music and arts, continuously expanding its offerings. From the iconic Pyramid Stage to smaller, more intimate venues like the Acoustic Stage, the festival showcases a vast array of talent. Its lineups have included some of the biggest names in music history, such as David Bowie, Beyoncé, Coldplay, and Radiohead, reflecting a wide range of genres and eras. This diversity is a hallmark of Glastonbury, making it a magnet for music lovers of all tastes.

Beyond music, Glastonbury is also a platform for political, environmental, and social expression. It frequently features speakers and activists from various movements, reflecting Michael Eavis’s own progressive values. The festival's Green Fields area emphasizes sustainability and eco-friendly living, resonating with attendees deeply concerned about environmental issues. This aspect highlights Glastonbury’s role not just as a festival but as a space for important societal conversations and learning.

Glastonbury is equally well-known for its arts. The Theatre & Circus area provides a burst of colorful performances, with everything from cabaret acts to breathtaking aerial displays. Meanwhile, the Kidzfield caters to families, ensuring that the festival is an inclusive, multi-generational event. At night, areas like Shangri-La, Block9, and The Unfairground come alive with cutting-edge electronic music and extravagant art installations, creating an immersive nightlife experience unique to Glastonbury.

Financially, Glastonbury supports numerous causes. Profits from the festival are donated to charities, including Oxfam, Greenpeace, and WaterAid, as well as hundreds of local organizations. This philanthropic angle is crucial to the ethos of Glastonbury, reinforcing its role as a force for positive change within and beyond the festival grounds.

After a brief hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Glastonbury returned with renewed vigor, reminding the world of its resilience and enduring appeal. Every year, Glastonbury continues to adapt and evolve, embracing new technologies and trends while staying true to its roots. It remains a beacon of cultural significance, a place where people from all walks of life can gather to celebrate the power of music and arts against the backdrop of Worthy Farm’s pastoral beauty.
