The Presets took shape in 2003 when Julian Hamilton and Kim Moyes first met at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. They were quickly recognised for their ability to fuse elements of dance music with an energy more akin to rock’n’roll. In 2008 they released the chart topping Apocalypso, featuring four hit singles, including the classic My People. Setting new standards for dance music in Australia, albums Pacifica and HI VIZ followed, along with a swag of awards. The Presets have been recognised worldwide for their dynamic live performances, playing hundreds of shows domestically and internationally, including key slots at renowned international music festivals such as Glastonbury, Coachella, SXSW, Exit, Melt and Splendour in the Grass. In 2023 to celebrate 20 years of making beats together, The Presets announced 20 nights of DJ sets around Australia, playing small clubs and bars reconnecting with the electric spirit that got them making music in the first place. The Presents return to Splendour for a special DJ set taking you back to where it all began.
