A new venue and community space has opened its doors in the Northcote area of Melbourne, High Note.
High Note sits across two adjoining spaces at the front of the Northcote Theatre, a popular music venue in Melbourne, each offering different experiences. “To your left, a sleek bar where quality meets simplicity,” High Note explains. “To your right, a buzzing hub, info-den and home for the community.”
The new venue boasts a hi-fi soundsystem and a special edition, custom-built rotary mixer by Condesa Electronics. “High Note's sonic kit-out is a special piece of hi-fi folklore,” says High Note.
