FLESH RITUALS & SIREN SONGS IV - ZCluster | Mistress Tokyo | Myxi Bun | Em Jade | Cheap Coffins | Infernal Desire Machine | Kidskin | Eve X

The Soft Machine Productions' FLESH RITUALS & SIREN SONGS returns to Sydney in 2025 with a Rite of Opening for ASSFest S25 in collaboration with the Australian School of Sexuality.

Join us in an orgy of fetishistic performance art entwined with sonic mayhem to open the portals for the 10 day long erotic / education / experiential festival of ASSfest.

A night of creative collaborations where the lines between sets become blurred, a continual narrative that invites you into the flow, to move and dance in the chaos and let yourself be taken by the tides.

Additional lineup and collaborations to be announced…

ZCluster + Mistress Tokyo

Once again into the fires together, Industrial Gothic conspirators in aural carnality ZCluster team up with impeccable dominatrix and seasoned performer Mistress Tokyo to bind Sai Lillith in the circles of rope and sound; an ascent in Shibari suspension while they sing their invocations in a shared ritual of beautiful sufferance and endurance.

Cheap Coffins

One man chaos engine and performance artist Cheap Coffins careens between brutality and vulnerability, dragging you with them into the center of their maestorm and transmuting the line between witness and participant.

Infernal Desire Machine

Traditional Shibari with a punk aesthetic, casting rituals in rope and rapture, the erotic chemistry of Sai Lillith & Eve X draws deep from the well to fill this vessel with interrogations of myth & power, flesh & desire.

Myxi Bun

Adorable, abravise, and unstoppable, Myxi Bun emerges from an aural abyss of undeniably catchy electronic pixellations to cavort across your consciousness.

Em Jade

Hard as nails, flowing like silk, Em Jade is an aerial dervish using ropes and chains as their weapon of choice. Pushing their body faster, harder, deeper into submersion, defiant in the depths.

Kidskin

Experimental retro electro synth beats wearing a Kidskin suit.

Eve X

Flesh artist and primal witch Eve X weaves through space and appears exactly where and when they need to be.
