Misa has a warmth and generosity to her musicality that is irresistible on the dance floor. The welcome to the dance is loud and clear from the first beat. Blazing bright with incandescence in her selections and in dextrous precision in the mix.
A founding and enduring member of Auckland’s musical heart, Misa has lit a bonfire across the summer and ignited all the most joyous celebrations across our fair country. We remind ourselves how lucky we are to be able to gather to dance, and even the more so because we dance to the enchantment of MISA!

You can find Sumosui bodysurfing at the intersection between the past & the present, between exotica and future technologies. You’ll find him snorkeling out of water among the primitive synths and butterfly catching in swarms of bass claves and ethereal 80s synthesizers.For this special event among such heartfelt luminaries and friends, expect his spots to change colour as he reveals the treasures and fruits of his musical loom!

Tune in on his dirty ice cream mix packed with South African gems! 🔥

Julien Dyne is a prodigious talent, an unrelenting conveyor of high fidelity music of the most lucid kind. DJ, drummer, producer, artist. Afro, disco, boogie, house, funk, hip hop. Let’s throw around some superlatives! Incomparable taste in records, an exquisite depth of selection and a smooth hand on the control.

DJ Jazz Cigarette AKA Azbo, the most wickedest Az-bro is where musical roads and histories intersect and culminate. This guy has played next to and booked ermmmm erryone! And it has rubbed off. Like a fine seasoning. The diversity and sensitivity expressed through his DJ sets is unparalleled, linking genres deftly, weaving an unforgettable narrative through his audio tapestry.With his rotary skills honed to such a smoothness we can’t help but dub him “Don Caramello” you know it’s going to be tasty!

Outernational & intergalactic!

"A sinuous beast! A minotaur! A jungle jazz six legged afro synthesized body bending asset shaker!"

Afro tropical motifs melded with disco and open minded house music for an enlightening dance floor palette that sits left of centre but hits you straight between the ears.
Where funk, boogie & digital reggae vibes fuse with the intonations and incantations of tropical musical dialects.
Why should you have to choose, when you can have it buttered BOTH sides?
