From the Circuitree Crew:
Thanks to all the people who braved the elements and came to Reconnect for a stomping good weekend!

Yes the weather took it's toll, on all the people there including the crew and our best laid plans. There was vast amounts more of decor, lighting and some premium art installations that couldn't go ahead simply because of the conditions, but we all braved it and came through it together.

It was great to see people always on the dance floor, at any time in any condition people were stomping it out to the fantastic music from ALL the acts and dj's that came along.

Big up's to the Melbourne crew and others from afar who done the road trip! Thanks for coming and supporting our party, these event continue to go from strength to strength, bigger and better every time.

Thanks to all the volunteers, workers, the Robertstown locals and social committee for all the awesome smiles, chats and really great food!

Photo's, footage and incriminating evidence coming soon! :p

Really? wow that's a shame but it was still sweet as. The dragon flies were so good. Shame they had to come down, potentially a safety hazard? Well anyhow I hope no-one got a dragon fly headbutt :)

Had a pretty good time, loved the tent with all the poi stuff in it looks like a lot of effort went into that.

One question which unless a DJ is reading is probably hard to answer but there was a hip hop track playing in the chillout area on Saturday night probably after 12 that was really awesome but I never found out what it was. If anyone knows what it was please let me know, had 2 MC's in it.

I think the decor and lighting could have been much better, there was not enough lighting between stage areas and the camp areas, considering the punters camp site was much further away than the 'crew' camping area. The stage was set up perfectly to keep the rain and wind out, but it could have been far more visually appealing, i.e grab some of the random string art designs that were sitting around not even lit up and put them in front of the stage with a light on them. Maybe spend less effort on the chill stage (I never saw more than 5 people there) and more time on a decent main stage.
The music programming lacked flow and I thought a lot of the saturday afternoon/early evening music didn't really fit in at an outdoor party. Illegal machines was the most boring psytrance I have heard, some of the local DJs could have done a more exciting set I reckon.


Sorry we didnt design the party for you bro. As for visually apealing, gettin down really only requires music. if you remember or check some pics from the main room @ the habitat youll see that circuitree is capable of the most extensive psychedelic decor in all the lands. got any ideas for windproof decor? just a question, have you ever programmed a lineup for a 3 day party? on that note have you ever done an 'exciting set' at a party? if you have i would love to pick your brain and compare ideas to see wot makes you tick . ps have you told fabien hes the most boring psy youve heard?

I for one, thoroughly enjoyed Illegal Machines' set. And the fact that there were still people dancing at that point despite the near-apocalyptic weather conditions, tells me i'm not the only one.

ah yes i was one of those soaked to the bone but dancing hard

Circuitree presents Reconnect 09 camping, arts, music festival.
Another year and once again we had to deal with rain and wind which is highly unusual
for such an arid landscape and for the time of the year.


This first clip shows early Friday night with Automated, Obstetrix, Ichanic, Phill Walls vs Devious and Chromatic.
After this it shows early Saturday morning on the chill stage then late afternoon on the main stage with Nuf Z and CIRCUITBENT.




This clip shows late in the evening with Bio Freq playing his slamming Breaks then S.E.T.H. with his
twisted psychedelic sounds. It also has crazy characters roaming around the dance floor during S.E.T.H's set.
After this it shows early Sunday morning with Rythmik's funky quirky tunes.




This clip shows all of Sunday afternoon and we were finally blessed with a sunny day.
It starts off with DECOY playing his funky progressive techno and his electric double bass. Then moves and grooves into Gnome's pumping dj set.
By now the crowd is winding down or heading home to the norm as Bleep plays his live minimal techno.
After that Cerambus dj's everyones favourite wind down tunes then finally S.E.T.H. play once again but this time it's his live chill.




Preconnect shows the creative process to making Reconnect.
This is the lead up footage, a month before the festival starts.
