CASSIUS (Dex N Fx, France)
Only one city is synonymous with the production of psychotic, repetitive, frenzied electronic beats and this city is home to one of the pioneers of this style. Hailing from Paris, France, Cassius has been at the forefront of electronica since the 90's and show no signs of letting up, often compared to the likes of Justice and Daft Punk. This is a must see act at We Love Sounds.

THE BRAVERY
Spawning from China Town New York, The Bravery explore an eclectic mix of weird yet simultaneously dark garage-electronics. Launched to fame through myspace and their cult hit 'An Honest Mistake', their outspoken disdain for mainstream music has resulted in the creation of a post-punk dance phenomenon. Their aims: to "elevate culture" and be brave whilst doing so.

DUBFIRE
One of the hottest names in dance music over the past 12 months and half of the electronic godfathers Deep Dish, Dubfire has become a household name due to his extensive touring and prolific release schedule. The busiest man in dance music will be stopping by for We Love Sounds to give us a lesson in dance music history. An obsessive collector of music, its his diversity that has him in such high demand.

BONDE DO ROLE
With the unexpected mix of hip hop, rock, samba and heavy beats, these Brazilian superstars will be sure to create havoc on the dance floor. A worldwide sensation thanks to campaigns for Nokia, and having worked with the likes of MIA and Diplo, you have no choice but to respect their dance-non-stop-as-if-your-pants-are-on-fire-or-get-the-f***-out policy. Making their debut appearance down under, Bonde Do Role are an exceptionally rare experience not to be missed!
