Your Guide to Aus Music Month 2025

‍

November is Aus Music Month!

‍

A time to spotlight, support, and celebrate the artists shaping Australia's sound. Whether you're an artist, a fan, or somewhere in between, it's about showing up for local music in real ways, on stage, on stream, and everywhere in between.

‍

Here’s what’s on and how you can get involved:

‍

Ausify Your Algorithm

All month long

‍

The Ausify campaign is here to help you take control of what you hear, literally.

Instead of letting the algorithm feed you more of the same, the Ausify Your Algo initiative encourages music fans to actively search, stream, follow, and save Australian artists. Every action you take can help push Aussie music higher in your personal playlists, and higher on the global radar.

‍

Get involved:

• Create or refresh a playlist with all your favourite local legends
  
  
• Tag it with #Ausify or #AusifyYourAlgo
  
  
• Follow and save your top Aussie artists on streaming
  
  
• Go to local gigs. Buy merch. Share their music.
  
  

Support isn’t passive, and neither is listening. Get loud. Get local. Get Your Record Out.
