HandsDown: It's my all time favourite song by a band called dashboard confessional; it's been tattooed on my hands for ages so it kind of seemed fitting.
How did come to start DJing?
HandsDown: I've always been around music; played in hardcore bands that sort of thing.. I played drums for a long time growing up so I was always going to be curious.
What has been your favourite gig so far?
HandsDown: Easily the show I played in New Zealand; place vibed harder than I've ever experienced.
What can people expect to hear from one of your sets?
HandsDown: Death electro, dubstep, wild mixing and sweaty bitches.
Who's your favourite DJ/Producer at the moment?
HandsDown: Haezer for sure; his stuff is always off the charts. Locally your ol' lady and Trumpdisco.
What's the first song that pops into your head when you think 'Getting Tropical' and why?
HandsDown: Getting friendly with Thailand she men?
What plans do you have for HandsDown in the future?
HandsDown: A whole lot more dub gigs with the AllCityBass and riot guys. As well as Trashbags/Zoolandtrash parties, hoping to head back to Sydney and NZ too. Also just inked a deal with Threds clothing up in Brisbane so heading up there in August so looking forward to that.
What's your favourite memory of a live gig you've seen?
HandsDown: Booka Shade - no doubt.
