Distorted Music Festival

Logo of the Distorted Music Festival

The Distorted Music Festival was an electronic music festival held in Melbourne, Australia in 2005.

It was the first festival of its kind in Australia, showcasing electronic artists who are not generally considered to be mainstream. It covered the musical genres of industrial, noise, power noise, breakcore, IDM and glitch.

The philosophy of the festival is to bring to Australia international acts who would otherwise never play in the country. The festival also showcases local Australian artists, giving them the chance to play alongside the big names in the scene.
