Surf City - Psychedelic punk showtunes from the sparkling masters of NZ Indy underground, it's surf rock from the future ... now.

Grayson Gilmour - The prolific wunderkind strikes again with melodic, meandering music that bridges the dance floor and the bedroom.

The Transistors - Blending 60s garage, 70s power pop and punk and 80s hardcore and alternative rock, The Transistors are hailed as one of Christchurch's, if not New Zealand's, raddest and exciting punk bands.

Thundercub - Striking synths, driving beats, twisted math-music treats come standard with this energetic electro-grunge three-piece.

Mr Biscuits - Dishing up endlessly inventive ambient pop with a sprinkle of strangeness, it's the plush sound from way in.

Isaac Aesili aka Karlmarx (Open Souls, Solaa) - Soul funk mastermind laying down dance-floor dynamite, pulling in everything from Motown to Mr Oizo, it's the man with his hand on the wheel of NZ's soul scene revival.

Nightshade featuring Sarah Callander with Beau and Dell McLeod - darker than a gothic novel and ten times as sexy, this liquid DnB crew lay it out in unfailing style, with huge support from local vox'sters.
