SUMMARY:Screw Loose Vol 4 - ft. Paige Julia\, Dylan C\, MSJOS
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Screw Loose\nAt Screw Loose ᴵⁿᶜ we are on a mission to represent many of the flavours of our wide\, New Zealand electronic scene\, whether we’re nodding our heads to the unst unst\, getting down and dirty to the dubstep\, or bopping to our boybands. \nThis time around we’re going to be getting a bit wibbly wobbly with two of New Zealand’s most incredible exports. Join us on a ride in our magic schoolbus as we delve into the slightly insane\, sonic world of internationally recognised bass artist Paige Julia\, take a detour out to national treasure and multi-genre wizard Dylan C’s swamp\, before we take the bus on home and park it up with MSJOS in the (UK) garage. \nPaige Julia\nPaige Julia is a creature that makes music for people who stay up late. While a well-known force of nature in Aotearoa’s underground bass music scene for some time\, she is now being embraced by the global music community. She has consistently been invited to perform at festivals all over Europe and Australia and has released music with international labels: 1985 Music\, Deep Dark & Dangerous\, Drum&BassArena\, Unchained Recordings\, Samsara Beats\, MalLabel Music\, Forest Biz\, Uncomfortable Beats and Totally Roasted. Her self released album titled “Morphling” won “Best Electronic Artist” at the 2021 Aotearoa Music Awards. \nDylan C\nMusic speaks more than a thousand words with Dylan C\, apt for a man small on small talk but who communicates fluently in melody\, rhythm and sonic frequencies. He has developed his distinctive multi-genre approach since the early 2000s\, dipping in and out of various musical scenes simply to keep things interesting. Jungle\, halftime\, 140 and moody groove\, all sewn together with the deepest of rolling basslines. \nMSJOS\nAn eclectic performer who finds joy in the weird and whimsical\, msjos has been bringing wide grins and bass faces alike to audiences across NZ for half a decade. With an ear for grooves and an obsession with the odd\, Joss is on a constant quest to bring pleasantly peculiar sounds to the masses with his multi-genre performances. Whether funk\, house\, glitch-hop\, garage\, bassline\, slow chunky techno\, breaks\, jungle\, whatever Joss is vibing is what he’ll play. \nIntentional Culture\nOur events are intentional – we are here as an alternative to the binge culture of the mainstream. Do take care of yourself and each another as taxis will be called by our friendly security team for those that cannot look after themselves. If you see someone that needs help or doesn’t look okay\, reach out. \nWe also want to create a culture where everyone feels safe and respected. If you’re not sure about whether what you’re doing is okay\, just ask. Be aware of the people around you and think about how you might feel if you were them. Sometimes people don’t want to hug you\, don’t want pictures taken of themselves\, or don’t want you all up in their personal space. \nIf someone says “no” it means “no”. If it’s not a “F*** yes!” it’s not a “yes”. \nDoors 9:00pm – R18. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Li’l Chuck The One Man Skiffle Machine
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Tauranga Arts Festival\nLi’l Chuck The One Man Skiffle Machine is an authentic one-man band performing “good time music with old time style.” Inspired by the street performers of the 1930s–50s\, he blends blues\, early jazz\, ragtime\, and Western swing\, delivering it live with harmonica\, guitar\, kick drum and hi-hat all played simultaneously! \nCaptivating storytelling intertwines effortlessly with heart stopping harmonica. Multiple guitar styles are underpinned by his left and right feet frantically pounding the kick and hi hat. The listener is left simply wondering\, “How the hell does he do that?” \nIn an age where we are rushing around at breakneck speed\, where everything is instant\, sugar coated\, airbrushed and overly polished\, Li’l Chuck brings us down to earth with some organic\, all natural\, whole grain\, naked goodness. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Tāne Rore
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Tauranga Arts Festival\nBold. Bilingual. Beautifully Māori. \nAn extraordinary theatrical experience that will shimmer in your bones and ignite the fire within. \nTāne Rore is a critically acclaimed bilingual theatre work inspired by the Māori atua of performing arts that weaves together haka\, waiata\, poetry\, movement and heartfelt storytelling in a theatrical experience unlike any other. \nPerformed by a phenomenally talented all-Māori cast including Poroaki Merritt-McDonald\, Luke Orbell\, Tohu Edwards\, Nātana Mika and Joseph Rehu-Hahunga\, Tāne Rore explores the many facets of Māori identity – belonging\, masculinity\, culture and legacy through an authentic Māori lens. Rich with humour\, heart and humanity\, the production invites audiences into stories that are both deeply personal and universally resonant. \nRaw\, uplifting and visually striking\, Tāne Rore is more than a performance\, it is a celebration that connects generations\, honours whakapapa\, and reinvigorates contemporary theatre in Aotearoa. \nWitness one of Aotearoa’s most compelling new Māori theatre works by this exciting Tauranga-based collective. \n“Tāne Rore shatters stereotypes\, portraying Māori men as multifaceted and deeply complex\, far beyond the caricatures often seen in mainstream media\, positive messages that resonate far and wide.” – Theatreview. \nParental guidance is recommended. Contains mature themes including\, but not limited to\, spirituality\, grief\, sexuality and colonisation. \nFind out more
