The Room.

By Ben Howat · 24 October 2026 · 2 min read

For us this is about the sheer love of music, and the moments you remember when a song comes on during the drive home from work and takes you back.

come in

I want Blackout Room to be more than a label. I want it to be a room full of people who make music because they love it. We call it the Room.

What I picture

Someone in Logan who makes beats meeting a singer from the Sunshine Coast who's been looking for one. A guitarist who's never released anything getting their first song out and twenty people shouting about it on release day. Honest notes on a demo from people who actually make music, not strangers in a comment section.

Not a scene with gatekeepers. Not a group chat where people only post their own links. A place where people turn up for each other.

How it works

  • There's a wall on our site for members: collabs, gear, gigs, feedback, release days.
  • There's a Discord for chatting live.
  • And there's a form to say "I want to make music with people near me", so we can introduce you.

The rules are short

Be kind. Be honest. No spam, no selling streams, no hate. No judgement about the music: genre, tools, skill level, how long it took you. Everyone starts somewhere.

It's starting now, small. It grows as you join. I'd love you to be one of the first.
