Queen's Birthday Weekend,

Sounds, Finely
Tuned, Inthemix and Video Hits present the sixth Annual We Love Sounds Winter
Festival in Sydney. The largest winter touring festival in the country returns
on its regular perch, the Queen's Birthday Long Weekend, Saturday 6 June 2009.
Every
year the festival has grown and this year continues the trend, with We Love Sounds
now encompassing Moore Park (Centennial Parklands), directly across the road from
the Hordern Pavilion. We Love Sounds will be erecting arena size big top circus
tents in the grass space, to cater for the sheer magnitude of the artist bill,
which includes the world's number one DJ, Armin Van Buuren, alongside the likes
of USA's Armand Van Helden, as well as James Zabiela (voted people's choice, international
DJ - 3D World) and Holland's Laidback Luke.
As in previous
years, the festival will continue to utilise the Hordern Pavilion, Royal Hall
Of Industries, The Forum and surrounding venues, boasting a combination of indoor
arenas and the great outdoors, firmly securing We Love Sounds as a truly unique
festival experience. The second round artist announcements (a third announcement
will be made in the coming weeks) embraces We Love's tradition for tapping into
cutting edge electronic music, while keeping a firm foothold with festival favourites.

global star Chris Lake (collaborator with Deadmau5 and remixer of Kylie, Robbie
Williams, Lily Allen) joins the ranks, as well as electro sensation Kissy Sell
