We are excited to officially launch Sound System Appreciation Society and our new Funktion-One rig with a killer Sunday Session headlined by Ryanosaurus, plus a 3-hour production masterclass with the man himself.

SSAS is a boutique audio provider built on a long-standing obsession with how music feels. After years of experiencing events that prioritise volume over clarity, we founded SSAS to deliver something more immersive, musical, and considered. Our launch party is your first opportunity to experience our precision-tuned Compact Funktion-One system in a space where listening truly matters. Don’t be fooled by its compact size. It is absolutely the best in its class and punches well above much bigger rigs!

Expect warm, physical bass, articulate mids, and sparkling highs you’ve come to expect from Funktion-One, alongside a curated dancefloor soundtracked by Ryanosaurus and a selection of Brisbane’s finest talent across the full gamut of the electronic music spectrum.

Taking over VENTspace in South Brisbane, this is a rare chance to hear world-class tunes on a boutique, premium system in an intimate setting. Best of all, the party is completely free! Come down, connect, and experience audio the way it was meant to be felt.

3-HOUR PRODUCTION MASTERCLASS

As a special treat for Brisbane producers, we are hosting a special 3-hour production masterclass with Ryan Whare from Ryanosaurus and Electrocado before the Sunday Session starts.

This is your chance to learn from one of Australia’s most respected and innovative producers. Whether you’re beginning your production journey or are an experienced live performer, this intimate session will provide invaluable insights into creating world-class electronic music.

Renowned for his razor-sharp engineering, intricate sound design, and genre-defying arrangements, Ryan will lift the hood on his creative process. Over three hours, he will break down the exact techniques he uses to craft his signature phat basslines, punchy percussion and complex glitchy textures.

The masterclass will cover essential production pillars, including synthesis, efficient workflow strategies, and the art of building powerful, festival-ready arrangements that translate perfectly to big sound systems. Ryan will also share his unique approach to collaboration, drawing from his extensive experience working alongside Mr. Bill in Electrocado and releasing on top-tier global labels like Zenon and Iboga.

This is a rare, hands-on opportunity to level up your studio skills, ask burning technical questions, and gain a fresh perspective on your music from a true industry veteran.

Spaces are strictly limited to 20 people to ensure an intimate learning environment. Secure your spot now and take your production to the next level.
