EARLY BIRDS ON SALE NOW!
BOOK EARLY TO AVOID MISSING OUT.
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH

We’re pumped to bring SUBMOTION vol.1 to The Button Factory + Old Folks. This is an epic multi-stage/immersive night blending local crews and generations: music producers, djs, visuals, art installations and a full spectrum of yummy BASS for your palate.

This year also marks the anniversary of Tāmaki Dub Club—a celebration of the sounds, people and pressure they’ve been building in Tāmaki. Undergrowth crew brings a fresh approach to liquid DnB, and Creature Post will transform the space into an epic visual playground with installations, interactive light art and mesmerising visuals setting the SUBMOTION world.

Three Zones — Three Different Flavours.

BUTTON DOWN
Dylan C, Zuke, SorchaLula, Geo Seato and L EZ set the ground in motion.

BUTTON UP
Brown Sugar, Axis + Ellen, Merchie, G-Banga, Deebee and Dai x LMF take things further

AUCKLAND OFA
Paddy Free, Burning Soundz, Dubs Botanical and Jafa Sound System bring the dub sounds, hosted by Dub Club MCs.

A jolt to the Babylon system in the heart of Tāmaki.

Brought to you by Aurora Creative and The Button Factory

FULL SPECTRUM
DUB ~ BASS ~ DNB

GROUNDED

A grounded, zone where deep subsonic sounds, fractal rhythms and cinematic textures meet. Experience Aotearoa's bass music subculture with immersive low-end, live elements and music that pulls you properly into the room.

She has released music with 1985 Music, Drum&BassArena, Unchained Recordings, Samsara Beats, MalLabel Music, Forest Biz, Uncomfortable Beats and Totally Roasted as well as a self released album titled “Morphling” that won “Best Electronic Artist” at the 2021 Aotearoa Music Awards.

DUB CLUB

Celebrating Tāmaki Makaurau Dub Club Anniversary: Live dub mixing, original productions and freestyle MCs over a heavyweight sound system. Rooted in dub and reggae culture, but pushed into deeper and more experimental territory. A living session shaped in the moment.

Founder of Offbeat Records, promoter of some of New Zealand’s early hip hop and DnB fusion events, former host of the nationwide ROLL TV, label manager for Concord Dawn’s Uprising Records, and editor for Infusion Magazine, Charlie has helped shape the scene from every angle.

With performances across Australasia and appearances at major festivals including Rhythm & Vines, La De Da, and CoroGold, his sound is driven by one thing above all.

A deep love for heavy beats and serious bass.

LIQUID

Liquid drum & bass, soulful melodies and deep sub-bass for the upstairs. A fluid, uplifting space built for movement, release and sinking into the flow.

Every set features her original tracks, many melting with honeyed vocals by singer Samuel (Cecilia’s Crop). In tune with what the body needs, she entwines beauty with bravery, sinuous melodies with hefty bass, lush peaks with decadent darkness.

She has played many top festivals around Aotearoa: Northern Bass, Shipwrecked Festival, Twisted Frequency, Aum Festival NYE, CubaDupa, Taniwha’s Den and more. She is highly rated by some of the biggest names in the scene for her taste, depth, and intuitive understanding of dancefloors. As founder of The Sensonauts she created events exploring the senses, music, dance, and music education with a focus on inclusivity.
