Our international Spotlight series highlights some of the best international acts heading to Melbourne to perform this year.
2024 was a big year for SOSA as he solidified his place as one of the most influential names in house music with the release of BLOW (White Girl In Town). Racking up over 20 million Spotify plays and 245 million TikTok views it was one of the biggest tracks of the summer, sparking viral moments across social media and setting the stage for a legendary summer run of shows across Ibiza, the U.S., and Europe.
Later in the year SOSA continued his dominance with the ‘Bump Artist EP’, a groovy 3-track release that took Beatport by storm resulting in all three tracks landing in the Top 10, with the title track going #1. His latest single, ‘Mezcal Bounce’, a collaboration with Kidoo, dropped on November 15th and very quickly became a fan favourite, further cementing SOSA’s reputation as a global tastemaker.
His label, COCO, also had an incredible year, establishing itself as one of the top-performing labels in the minimal/deep tech genre on Beatport. COCO’s standout releases have earned widespread acclaim and played a pivotal role in the genre’s continued evolution. On the live front, COCO’s sold-out UK tour packed multiple venues across Birmingham, Cardiff, and Newcastle, and culminated in its biggest show ever in Liverpool, SOSA’s hometown, on December 27th.
SOSA’s calendar has been littered with iconic performances at major festivals and venues throughout 2024, including Creamfields, Hard Summer, and Eastern Electrics, and his sold-out headline show at London’s famous KOKO marked another career milestone in a year filled with unforgettable moments.
