“We use the communal joy of music and dancing to bring everyone together."
Much-loved Aus DJ Hot Dub Time Machine is set to bring screens to life this weekend, with a massive livestream for a very good cause.
The producer, known offstage as Tom Lowndes, will perform a huge set of upbeat and positive tunes for I Feel Good! - a fundraising event to launch the beginning of Mental Health Month.
With proceeds going to mental health support NFP organisation Lifeline, viewers will be able to tune in to the massive online party for a night of groovy tunes and good vibes.
Lowndes is no stranger to live-streaming his sets - having set up his own streams entitled Hot Dub At Home last year to bring some much needed joy to viewers in lockdown.
“Hot Dub at Home has always been about bringing some fun and joy into lockdown life and I constantly get messages from people saying how much it has helped them get through some grim times,” Lowndes explained.
“We use the communal joy of music and dancing to bring everyone together, whether you’re alone or with a family, into one shared party experience. I’m aware of the great work Lifeline has been doing, offering important help and counselling to people who really need it, and how stretched they have been recently, so we’re very happy to team up for this stream and raise some cash.”

Lifeline Australia CEO Colin Seery echoed the sentiment, adding, “Connection is key, particularly in these uncertain times. Lifeline is really excited to partner with Hot Dub at Home to promote self-care through music for the start of Mental Health Month. Currently Lifeline receives a call for help every 30 seconds, feel extra good knowing that this live fundraiser will support Australians in need right now.”
I Feel Good! will kick off from 6pm AEST, Saturday 02 October, over at the official Hot Dub Time Machine Twitch channel. For more information on Lifeline and Mental Health Month, head to their website here.
