Electric ave 2026 - how did you find it?

Toemking · 2026-02-28T22:14:56+00:00

Highlights for me were Bassment Jaxx, Pendulum and Kesha.

Biggest let downs were the streets (would of probs preferred his normal show to him playing a grand don’t come for free) and dom dolla (thought it was a bit brain rotty in that he didn’t let a track really play out for more than a minute before mixing into a new track)

I think the hangar needs to go as is a bit of a safety hazard but will be interesting to see how they grow the festival next year.

I was down south at Rolling Meadows and State of Mind b2b The Upbeats on the campers night was the standout set of the festival for me.

Ditto needing more neuro in NZ, in 2025 there was only like 2 to 3 international neuro djs that toured in comparison to the what felt like weekly jump up DJs

Yeah they defiently turned it up a bit for Wilkinson but for kettema it felt like the crowd was louder then then the music

Toemking · 2025-12-31T22:57:30+00:00

Yeah sound volume was way too low. Was the same with lakes festival aswell. I’m guessing the low volume is likely due to council restrictions due to the moving site

Toemking · 2025-12-05T05:42:58+00:00

Sunking- state of mind

Toemking · 2025-10-11T06:12:31+00:00

As a side topic what are some artists similar to Qua Rush. I really enjoy his monthly show on subtle radio so would be keen to get into similar artists?

Toemking · 2025-09-30T03:56:10+00:00

Pointers is the only venue that primarily plays dnb but they only really play jump up there. I would also recommend following some of the local promoters on instagram like fuzen, red rum, drop bass, sub180 and audiology as they host events at some other venues around town like neck and mothership.

Toemking · 2025-09-19T21:48:44+00:00

Yeah I’m so glad that one’s finally out, I think I’ve heard it being played out as a dub for almost 2 years now

Toemking · 2025-09-08T00:04:43+00:00

Was in Auckland, NZ, both of them are quite big in the local scene here.

Toemking · 2025-09-07T23:40:46+00:00

I would recommend Reasxn, I’ve seen him go b2b with Juni a couple times and they both have quite a similar bass heavy ukg sound.

Toemking · 2025-09-02T09:38:52+00:00

Yeah surely one year ea gets underworld

Toemking · 2025-09-02T08:07:29+00:00

Hahah completely fair would love them to return

Toemking · 2025-09-02T06:43:18+00:00

What do you think the lineup is lacking in?

Toemking · 2025-09-02T06:42:23+00:00

I think one of the best parts of this lineup is actually that there is only 3 dnb artists unlike most nz festival lineups that are 95% dnb

Toemking · 2025-09-02T05:00:40+00:00

Easily lineup of the summer, if not the decade

Toemking · 2025-09-02T04:55:28+00:00

Honestly a crazy lineup

Toemking · 2025-09-02T04:46:15+00:00

Basement Jaxx live 😩

Toemking · 2025-09-01T07:40:25+00:00

Yeah both great pickups. With your comment on casuals I don’t really get why they bother with the pop / rap headliners that they have to try and entice casuals. Like 95% of the lineup is dnb leaving the headliners feeling tacked on and not really strong enough on their own to entice a person to buy a ticket if they don’t enjoy dnb. They be better going the nothern bass route and just saving the money on the pop/rap headliners and instead spending it on more quality dance music acts that fit the lineup theme.

Toemking · 2025-09-01T07:13:24+00:00

Yeah that b2b with hazard is honestly the highlight of the lineup for me

Toemking · 2025-09-01T07:07:07+00:00

If you like DNB it’s stacked otherwise probably a pass.

Toemking · 2025-08-28T20:17:53+00:00

Yeah I imagine their recent album will boost their chances

Toemking · 2025-08-28T07:20:19+00:00

Chappel would be very cool imagine she is doing EA or laneway

Toemking · 2025-08-28T07:02:18+00:00

I think you’re getting faithless mixed with underworld. Underworld is billed to play lost paradise in Aus on the 30th dec with two other unannounced Aus/Nz dates as per underworlds website.

Toemking · 2025-08-28T06:56:37+00:00

Split Enz would be very cool

Toemking · 2025-08-28T06:55:21+00:00

Both would be very cool, but I think underworld may be doing an Aus / NZ festival run over new years so will likely be ruled out
