Meet the crew SASH

Time Out meets the guys behind Sydney's long-standing techno party. By Jordan Kretchmer

So guys, when and why did you start the SASH parties? Matt We kicked off in May, 2011. We (Matt and Kerry) started SASH because we used to love going to Sounds on Sunday, which was an institution through the 2000s. I played some of my first gigs there, and when it shut down, the Sunday afternoon vibe was lost in our city. We decided that we should bring it back, which was the beginning of what we do now.

You’ve had a lot of different homes and have most recently settled into Home Nightclub. What do you like most about this location? Unlike the three venues before – which had been outdoor venues, or had a large terrace – Home doesn't. But what Home lacks in outdoor space, it well and truly makes up for in inside. It has helped our event grow to numbers we never would have been able to do elsewhere. Our birthday back in April saw us have over 2,500 people come through the doors and that certainly couldn't have happened elsewhere. Soon, we'll also be be bringing the day aspect with a new pre party in the coming weeks, but that's another chapter to write!

Describe a night out at SASH in three words? Get in it.

What’s been the best gig SASH have done so far? Our third and fourth birthdays were pretty epic! The closing party at our beloved Abercrombie still has a bittersweet tinge to it.

What tracks would typically get a spin at a SASH party? Bicep, ‘Rise'; Loquace ‘To Eric' (Dachshund remix); Dubphone ‘Otrava Minunata' (Archie Hamilton remix).
