Meltron
About Mtron Bomb: AKA Meltron. Host of the long-standing No Sleep Till Bedtime show on 95bFM where you are as likely to catch Devendra Banhart as Kavinsky. From her bFM bio: “Her club set is all about the beats and bass, fusing get-up Parisian house, get serious Berlin minimal and get-the-fucking-party-started New York Disco.”
Yam Jams DJs
About Elbo-E: Auckland-based DJ and promoter of the fortnightly party Yam Jams and monthly party Let’s Dance. Host for over four years of the Cream of the Crop radio show on Fleet FM. Refuses to stick to any one genre, infusing his sets with rare soul, disco, hip hop, Latin tunes, vintage 60s garage, or whatever else feels right for the dance floor at that particular moment. Grew up in a recording studio. Former horn player.
Alex Bull
From psychedelic space disco to the body-shaking compression of modern electro-tech, through quirky rolling house and sci-fi techno, Alex’s dj sets bring a magical fusion of, house, electro, disco and techno. Still in his early twenties, Alex has already made a big impression known for playing only the freshest and most innovative body-rocking beats, consistently delivering crowd-rousing sets without compromising his underground electronic edge.
