HOSTED BY YOUNG GHO$T
If you’re someone who appreciates the deeper and more soulful side of DNB, this one is for you. Ghost Media and Afters are teaming up to present the Pōneke leg of Soul In Motion’s first ever Aotearoa residency.
Expect a high-octane, full spectrum night of future music straight from the heart, headlined by none other than Soul In Motion’s top dog, NEED FOR MIRRORS.
Joe Moses aka NEED FOR MIRRORS is a true legend of the game, one of the genre’s most prolific and experimental artists, a constant presence in the record crates of many.
Presiding over a distinctly angular and confrontational sound, he has worked with some of the genre’s most esteemed labels, including V Recordings, Souped Up, Metalheadz and Thirtyone Recordings. In 2017, he established his own label - Soul In Motion, which over time has established itself of one of the premier labels and club nights in DNB, with over 40 releases from legends such as Jonny L, Bungle, Mark System, Lynx, Javano and more.
Joining Need For Mirrors we have two of SIM’s brightest stars - Ōtautahi-based pair AUTOMATIC and SINGR.
Both of these producers have been working hard producing tracks for Soul In Motion, receiving all sorts of international recognition and popping up in your favourite DJ’s track listings.
This tour represents an opportunity for them to showcase their sound domestically and demonstrate what the underground of Aotearoa drum n bass really sounds like in 2026.
Opening things up, we have the capital’s busiest selector, PEARLY. Fresh off a run touring with the legendary Shapeshifter, Pearly is an expert in deep and soulful drum and bass, and is planning to open up proceedings with a thoughtfully curated mix of liquid and classic 90s dnb.
On closing duties, we’ve called up Wellington’s very own OG, D-DOG, for a masterclass . After skanking out to him open for Grooverider a couple months ago, we were reminded of D-Dog’s supremacy on the decks, and for a night celebrating drum n bass at its truest and most uncompromising, we couldn’t think of anyone better to close.
On microphone duties of course is Young Gho$t. A man of many genres, he makes no secret about his love for drum n bass, and is exalted for a night that truly celebrates the sound in the way that he perceives it.
Capacity is strictly limited for this one, with $30 early birds available from Humanitix. Secure yours now, and prepare for some serious grooving with these sound providers at the capital’s newest club.
