Why Ausmusic Month Matters to us

Nightlife LOVES Australian music — as a Brisbane born and based licensed music provider, we believe in promoting and supporting our local industry.

“Beyond being huge fans of the unique sound of our local music scene, we’ve learnt that everyone who loves music has a part to play in strengthening it.”

Matthew Lymbury, Head of Content

During Ausmusic Month:

Nightlife recorded a 36% increase in Australian songs being played across their network.

This lead to a total of over 20 Million Aussie songs played for Ausmusic Month.

Our Campaign

Through our Australian Played campaign we're bringing Nightlife clients, artists, industry partners, and music lovers together to celebrate Ausmusic Month. Any Aussie song that plays through Nightlife will ensure an Aussie artist gets paid.

Music lovers can help by looking for the Australian Played logo when they are choosing their music with our free jukebox app crowdDJ.

We’ll also be doing our bit to put Australian music centre stage, by adding more Australian artists to our Nightlife and crowdDJ® soundtracks. Our goal is to make sure that no matter where you go, you’ll be hearing more Aussie tunes than ever before.

It doesn’t matter if you’re an avid listener, Aussie artist or a Nightlife client, there are ways we can all help the Australian music industry this November.
