In three weeks, the Electronic Music Conference (EMC) will be home to a melting pot of Australia's finest dance producers, industry professionals, creative powerhouses, and nightlife experts. The 2016 edition was already overflowing with progressive, innovative talent but now they've gone and added a few more huge names to the bill.
One of Australia's hottest dance exports, Alison Wonderland, is joining the conference as a keynote speaker in conversation with inthemix editor Katie Cunningham. Jess Scully, member for City of Sydney and arts advocate, will be guiding the second keynote from Night Mayor of Amsterdam, Mirik Milan.
