•Dropkick Cousins

Marek aka Maz Def & Kev Fresh, two West Auckland expat’s found out after many a drinking session and late night jam, that they share a common love of parties and the world of big tunes.

•Excelle

Of mixed New Zealand and Japanese descent, Excelle is a multi-disciplinary creative with futurist leanings. A DJ, designer and visual artist, she constructs her vivid, cross-genre DJ sets with the same sensibilities a fashion designer would curate a seasonal range.
Having originally emerged from artistically dynamic design school scene of the early 2000s in Wellington City, touchstones for Excelle's aesthetic include seminal Manga work Akira and the cinematic adaptation of Philip K Dick's classic Blade Runner. Citing the likes of Krush, Kode9, Ikonika, Zinc, Oneman and Ramadanman as inspirations, she has been lucky enough to, over the course of her DJ career, share the turntables with many of her musical icons
