Now up to Number 23, the Utopia series has been the pinnacle of all night entertainment longer than any other party. With each new event we practice a philosophy of change and a disciplined approach to improvement over the past. Last year in 2003 we launched the annual Utopia Electronic Music Festival (UEMF), which brought together a staggering array of local, interstate and international performers.
The event incorporated the full spectrum of electronic music. From Hard Trance to Hardcore, Acid to Breaks, UEMF showcased the best performers and the widest range of music of any event in Australia. It was the launch of something truly spectacular. Now in October 2004 we return to the UEMF ideal, this time in the legendary Sydney Showground complex (SSC). The SSC offers UEMF an unprecedented array of huge Exhibition venues, within each will be housed one of our four music arenas. Our second UEMF will expand on our ideals and inspiration behind this massive event, and will be the culmination of what has been a years planning. The Sydney Showground Complex and UEMF come together to supply Sydney with the wildest night of dance music, with the best performers, best production and best of everything available.

PRODUCTION
Lighting, lasers, visuals & sound
Over the course of the past 10 years, companies around the world have been creating newer and better entertainment equipment, products like 360 degree rotating intelligent, computer controlled lights, high powered, multi mirror laser systems, and sound cabinets, speaker boxes and bass cones that ever expand the clarity and sheer volume of the sound they output. With each new invention or technical advancement, Powerhouse Powerhouse Productions and our key suppliers follow these improvements with a keen eye. We continually update our equipment hire list to include these new gadgets, in order to bring our patrons the very best on offer. We source equipment from around the World and we take on ideas and solutions from all the wildest parties in most major countries. This is a long way of saying we offer the absolute best production for our patrons. If you think you've seen it all before, well think again. At UEMF you can expect to see fresh new lights flown in from distant Countries, amazing new high powered laser systems and sound systems that would make Pink Floyd green with envy. Together with all this amazing technology, we add that extra touch, absolutely mind boggling visual display screens surrounding the main performer console. These screens bring the main stage to life with footage of the performers up close and personal, plus what we believe is the best footage of all, footage of the crowd going nuts - live and direct on the giant screens.
UEMF - CELEBRATING FOUR UNIQUE MUSIC ARENAS
At UEMF you will come face to face with some of the World’s best performers, back up by the Countries leading techno visionaries. We will be creating two equal size main arenas in which we will present the two leading music forces behind the Sydney party scene. In the Arena 1.1 we offer you a selection of the best Trance and Hard Dance, in arena 1.2 we present the most intense hardcore and gabber experience. Both arenas offer an equal size for patron capacity, an equal level of sophisticated production and an equal level of supremely qualified performers. We believe this is an important aspect of the UEMF experience as we bring together the widest range of musical tastes, in gigiantic all night party venue. Backing up these two goliaths will be the Mashup arena and the Break arena. Smaller in size but equally decked with quality production and performers, these two smaller areas will offer our patrons an even wider choice of dancing enjoyment. Come and witness what UEMF has to offer, large and loud.

If it's Unknown as in Sy & Unknown that would be sick.
Yay for CPX Crew! Sash would be interesting..

once again utopia brings out a weird line-up eh...
i'd like to see dj unknown play that'd rock. if only we could get sy out here as well!!
neophyte = neophyte. fair enough...
but really, why bring sash! out??? when's the last time sash released anything??? the last tune i remember of his was adelante.... seems like a weird bit of promoting for powerhouse...

It is a bit weird about Sash, I agree.
Neophyte doesn't interest me.
Would be good to see Sy and Unknown together, but Unknown should be good.
Don't know if I'll make it to this one, the line up doesn't do much for me.

same, it'd be forking out the utopia ticket price just for unknown.... there'll be other good parties on at the time and i'm not too keen on utopias. godspeed's good though.

no line up for ages (in oz) will ever compare to godspeed and it just bloody sux!!! Makes me so unkeen for something like this. (or posibly the fact i would be doing my hsc a couple of weeks after). Unknown + the usuals is good but compare it to godspeed and why would you bother. But then again give it time and you never know, it may grow on you

Agreed. This years Godspeed won't be matched again for a long time, unless Sam (Powerhouse Productions) does the same kind of thing with other big names for the next Godspeed. Judging by the last two he just seems to be getting bigger and better. I must admit that the Utopia line up is a bit dissapointing, but I've always loved Godspeeds more :)
