***Bobby Brazuka***
With a DJ career that spans almost 20 years, Bobby Brazuka has carved out a niche playing Latin and Latin-inspired music in Aotearoa. Growing up listening to Brazilian greats Jorge Ben, Tim Maia and Marcos Valle, Bobby infused his rich musical heritage into Auckland's DJ culture, building a community around his Latin parties and earning himself a reputation as our unofficial Brazilian Music Ambassador.
***Killamanraro***
Having first made his mark on the NZ music scene as a founding member of Auckland-based hip-hop/reggae collective Token Village (alongside Che Fu, King Kapisi, Submariner and Manuel Bundy), KillaManRaro has worked with a who's who of local and international artists including Trinity Roots,The Feelstyle, Hollie Smith, Sola Rosa, Soane, Eru Dangerspiel, Fat Freddy’s Drop & DJ Vadim. Joining forces with NZ reggae heavyweights The Black Seeds as their lead guitarist in 2012, he has since gone on to co-write and co-produce their 2017 Album Fabric and their 2019 EP Refabricated, and has most recently returned from a highly successful tour of Europe & the UK with them, as well as rocking a bunch of DJ gigs in Ibiza on the way.
