Classica (AUS)

Two friends from the Central Coast in NSW, Australia, who shared a love for surfing, discovered they also shared a love for music. They started DJing together at parties and local club nights for the pure enjoyment they got from sharing music they loved with the crowd, and trying to stand out by playing a mix of tunes that weren’t what was typically being played. From DJing just for fun, to realising they had more passion for this than it simply being a hobby, Julian Rich and James Hopgood started their new project in 2018, called ‘Classica’. The boys worked hard on teaching themselves production and music theory and subsequently released their first single ‘Step In’.
