Presenter Announcement – Julian Hewitt
Jules is a music lawyer based in Melbourne who works with a variety of Australian artists and events including Architecture in Helsinki, Lisa Mitchell, Miami Horror, Big Day Out, Boy & Bear, Falls Festival, and Operator Please, using a breathtaking handcrafted font called ‘Slim Aarons’ in all of his legal documentation.
Jules is also the co-founder of a micro-label called Cohen Cooper & Roberts, a music supervisor for various film projects, a lecturer in music law, and he sits on the board of a number of public charities and events including the National Young Writers Festival and the Wired Lab. He pens the odd self-serving article about how the Wire can be a metaphor for anything if you substitute the words “Chicken McNuggets” with “my idea”, and he also plays synthesizer in several bands and DJ’s badly. The last act he remixed was the Teenagers, who asked him to pull the saxophone solo out of his mix as it was “not appropriate”.
