SUMMARY:Kauranga Oro – Week Of Port Noise
DESCRIPTION:Join Erika Grant and Ariana Tikao for a transformative experience that merges the ancient healing power of taonga puoro with the deep resonance of gong baths. In this special event\, the voices of te taiao\, our atua\, and ancestors come alive through the sacred sounds of taonga puoro\, guided by the gentle yet powerful energy of Hine Wai Ora. This feminine energy of the atua wahine\, symbolizing connection and release\, blends seamlessly with the harmonizing vibrations of the gongs\, creating a profound sense of relaxation and wellbeing. As the soothing tones wash over you\, you’ll enter a state of deep calm\, allowing tension to dissolve and mental clarity to emerge. The therapeutic sounds foster a powerful healing space where wai\, waiata\, and karakia coalesce\, offering not only an immediate sense of peace but also lasting benefits such as improved sleep\, reduced anxiety\, and an enhanced mood. \nThere will be cups of tea and food afterwards for grounding. \nAriana has 20 years experience as a taonga puoro practitioner\, and a diploma in rongoā from Te Wānanga o Aotearoa\, specialising in the hauora benefits of taonga puoro. \nErika Grant is a musician and astrologer based in Te Whanganui-a-Tara. She has 30+ years of musical experience. Erika has an interest in the healing properties of sound for mental and physical wellbeing\, which she currently explores through her gong bathing practice. \n

SUMMARY:Cream Presents: Skream
DESCRIPTION:We’re excited to bring back the legendary Skream \n  \nHide Club | 172 St Asaph Street \nThursday 27th February | 8:00pm – 1:00am \nSupport from: CHOLE \n  \n🎟 Tickets go live Thursday\, 30th Jan at 5:00 PM sharp – don’t miss out. \n  \nAbout Skream:  \nAs one of the UK’s best-loved selectors\, Skream has enjoyed the kind of consistency most DJs and producers can only dream of. His passion for collecting and playing music is unrelenting—disco\, house\, techno\, and everything in between. It runs deep into his core\, and he lives it every single day. Still only in his early thirties\, Skream has achieved more in the last 16 years than most people do in a lifetime\, yet his hunger and enthusiasm remain akin to someone who is only just getting started. \n  \nSkream’s history is well documented: a love affair with music triggered by his older brother\, Hijak. He began DJing at 11\, making music at 15\, and became one of the key innovators at the birth of dubstep—all before leaving his teens. With his place in UK music history already assured\, he could have easily kicked back and enjoyed his legendary status. Instead\, he made a bold transition to disco\, house\, and techno\, leaving the dubstep world to forge his own path in true Skream style. \n  \nTracks like ‘Rollercoaster’ (featuring Sam Frank) and his remixes of Duke Dumont’s ‘Need You’ and Infinity Ink’s ‘Infinity’ introduced the world to Skream’s shift in style. His 2013 mix output further cemented this change\, seamlessly blending a variety of 4×4 styles across his tracks. Alongside these pivotal releases\, he showcased his eclectic tastes at his Skreamizm parties\, which toured the UK and the world\, marking the start of a new chapter. \n  \nIn November 2013\, he closed his infamous label Disfigured Dubz and unveiled a brand-new platform\, Of Unsound Mind\, six months later in May 2014. The label’s ethos was simple: to offer an outlet for Skream’s friends and support the underdogs. Since its launch\, Of Unsound Mind has clocked over 50 releases\, introducing artists like Motions\, Billy Turner\, Melody’s Enemy\, and Osolot to the world. Skream’s philanthropy highlights his no-nonsense\, unfiltered attitude and his commitment to staying true to himself. \n  \nOn the production side\, Skream has continued to push boundaries\, using his platform to release a slew of techno cuts encompassing a range of textures—from rugged to emotive. Highlights include ‘Face Down In The Water\,’ ‘Settled\,’ and the mighty ‘Chronicles’ EP with Billy Turner. Beyond his label\, he has released tracks on labels like Crosstown Rebels\, Dennis Ferrer’s Objectivity\, and We Are The Brave\, which unleashed his killer track ‘Poison’ in 2018. He has also delivered a constant flow of remixes for major labels such as Warner\, FFRR\, and Sony\, as well as influential underground outlets like Hot Creations\, Watergate\, VIVa\, and Snatch!. \n  \nThe dancefloor remains his muse\, the place where Skream feels most at home. In 2019\, his creative output continued with the release of ‘Song For Olivia’\, dedicated to his newborn daughter. This single masterfully combined carefree disco and emotive trance with a retro 80s synth feel\, showcasing yet another reinvention in Skream’s sound. Following this came ‘Ectogazm\,’ an infectious piano-driven track reminiscent of the golden era of rave while offering something fresh and innovative. With over 2.2 million combined streams\, ‘Ectogazm’ gained support from underground A-listers like Krystal Klear and The Black Madonna\, alongside radio play from Danny Howard\, Pete Tong\, and Mistajam\, and was crowned ‘Hottest Record in the World’ by Annie Mac. \n  \nIn addition\, Skream released on labels such as RUKUS with his hard-hitting techno EP ‘DUNNN\,’ Solid Grooves with ‘Otto’s Chant’ and ‘Pussy Pop\,’ and found time to produce remixes for DJ Fresh\, CamelPhat\, and Declan McKenna. \n  \nFor the past few years\, Skream has showcased his deep musical knowledge through his ‘Open To Close’ parties\, playing all night long at sold-out venues worldwide. Fans trust in his ability to entertain them for eight hours or more\, making these events a dream come true for Skream and the epitome of his success. \n  \nTo achieve this level of trust from the dancefloor is rare\, and maintaining it is even more extraordinary. Skream is no ordinary artist\, and his commitment to music and his fans is unparalleled. “There was never any other option\,” he says\, and that’s why he remains one of the UK’s most treasured electronic music artists\, keeping the legacy of UK rave culture alive. \n  \nIn 2021\, Skream launched his record label I Feel\, focusing 100% on his own recordings across any genre he chooses. The global pandemic in 2020 gave him time to focus on production\, refining techniques for different soundscapes and genres. As a result\, he now has about 200 tracks ready for release. I Feel serves as the outlet for these productions\, which span house\, techno\, UK garage\, grime\, dubstep\, disco\, breakbeat\, indie\, pop\, and drum and bass. \n  \nAs we move into the second half of 2021\, Skream is in the midst of a massive release schedule\, including EPs\, remixes\, and singles. Collaborations with artists like Rudimental\, MUST DIE\, and See Thru Hands complement remixes for Octave One\, Lauren Flax\, Trance Wax\, and many more. This relentless output is quintessential Skream\, an artist who continues to innovate and inspire. \n

SUMMARY:I WAS A TEENAGE RACIST MOVIE PREVIEW
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nTrigger warning: This show contains racist language in order to help illustrate an anti-racist theme. \nHey everybody! Have you ever noticed how the entire world’s going through a vast cultural upheaval? \nAs straight\, white\, male comedians the world over either crash and burn complaining about equality and wokeness or perform stunning handbrake turns pretending they were never part of the problem\, loser comedian\, Simon Kingsley-Holmes\, has decided to own up. \nComing from a conservative background\, he has slowly realised that the views he grew up with and loudly espoused were wrong and now seems ample time to rip the piss out of his past self. \nFrom attempting to solve the Northern Ireland question aged seven to defending racist terms as a teenager in New Zealand\, Simon has done it all with the kind of lack of self-awareness that only a true comedian could muster. \nIf you want the satisfaction of hearing an Englishman admit that you were right or if you just want to laugh at a complete prat then welcome\, friend… I’m here for you! \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors 7:30pm | Starts 8:30pm \nTicket presales $15 \n\n\n\n
