For lovers of Brisbane Music and Culture this is one
of the greatest things to happen here for ages!
This has been a massive undertaking,
but an incredible journey of discovery.
Brisbane has always been a unique and
sometimes challenging place for artistic endeavor,
particularly with respect to our city’s social, political
and geographic context and BNE captures the spirit of true
innovation in the modern art form that is electronic music.
There are some wonderful stories in BNE,
but most importantly there is a lot of amazing music.

an awesome archive. Four of my old bands are included. Wish I were able to attend the launch at the Powerhouse .. it will be great night !!
I wish you could too Lee, I will try and get some photos and stuff up here from the night
that would be great
It was a terrific night. I discovered that the event was on through your blog, Bob, and got some tickets. My 14-year-old son is into electronic music and he was up the front for every minute. Have a couple of photos if interested, but not great. Cheers, Rob.
Glad to hear Rob in the end I didnt make it, sorry lee but Im glad it was successful
With only 2 years in which to track down artists and do the research it is likely that we did not include absolutely every artist that has ever produced electronic music in Brisbane. However, it is for this reason that BNE will have future editions.
