This years Big Day Out continues the epicness with acts including Muse, Lilly Allen, The Mars Volta, Groove Armada, crowd favourite Dizzee Rascal, Calvin Harris, Peaches, Sasha and of course a bunch of other awesome acts.

We’ll be in the Boiler Room as usual and will be supported by some of NZ’s other great VJs. More to be announced soon.

Of course that doesn’t mean we haven’t been out there gigging or that we won’t be doing it next year. Expect some updates of updating events soon.

JANUARY 15 | MT SMART STADIUM

Another year, another Big Day Out. An interesting mix of old and new. TV on the Radio should be awesome.
Expect a big camera mix in the Boiler Room this year with lotech mixing till 5.30 then Ariki Spooner is taking over the cut through the evening.  VJ groupies stress not though, there will be special apperances from the likes of DurtyMac, music video extroidanaire Chris White and the master of cardboard puppetry Kim Newall thoughout the day.

FRIDAY 16 JANUARY | GALATOS

Featuring Manuel Bundy, Stinky Jim, Junior & Lotech.

Straight from the BDO, we rush straight into a gig not worth missing. When they last visited Auckland as Oneself, DJ Vadim and Yarah showed how to party. They do it again – for you.

More info @ 5am.co.nz

After an absolutely insane BDO appearance earlier this year, Dizzee is back. This time it’s the Power Station and not that horrible tent. Support from PNC and videyo by lotech. We’ve got something special planned. The gig is going sell out (seriously) so get your tickets!
