Simon Caldwell

DJ/FBi Radio Host/Founder, Mad Racket

Playing since the early 1990’s, Simon has managed to avoid the stifling ‘style’ classification so many other DJ’s trap themselves into, keeping himself free to draw on his varied loves of deep, soulful house, techno, funk, jazz, electro, booty, hip hop and anything else which catches his ear. Simon has supported a list of internationals longer than your arm and currently holds down Monday Sunset on FBI Radio, and is resident/co-promoter of Mad Racket, a Sydney underground party institution running since 1998. A regular interstate guest around Australia, he has also played in Berlin (first in 1998 at the original Tresor), Hamburg (at legendary club Golden Pudel), London, Moscow and St Petersburg.

  • DAY 1 - WEDNESDAY 13 NOV


  • 15:50  - 16:35
    In the age of free accessible YouTube learning, many DJs and Producers might not know what value private, vocational or higher education providers can offer. It also makes one beg the question - is paying for education worth the tuition fees? Will I even make back my money or find work in the industry? What questions should I ask of these different providers to find out if they're a good fit for me? We bring together speakers from a variety of private, public and higher education institutions to help answer some of these questions, and to dive into the different approaches to education, and what value it provides the individual and industry in an uncertain future. There will be a networking opportunity after the panel to ask questions to people from specific represented education providers.
