His background is shrouded in mystery, his powers are supernatural and his reputation is whispered about among men.
He goes by different names, but folks just call him The Magician.
Hailing from the ever popular and fashionable Kitsune label, the Magician has proved with his stellar productions that he is at the forefront of modern disco at this present time.
On Thursday the 24th of November The Magician is here for the first time in New Zealand to put you under his spell and make you dance like there is no tomorrow. So come get lost in a purple haze, transfixed in a flurry of white doves. As he will make party goers float through a disco heaven and takes them around the house on a magic carpet ride.
Cassette’s a homely place with a split personality. By night its a throbbing night club and music venue hosting an array of weekly club nights and one off events and by day and early evening is a relaxed cocktail bar and restaurant with authentic Italian menu.

--------------------------------- IKONIKA.
"DJMAG BEST BRITISH DJ OF 2010 NOMINEE"
With her brilliant debut release 'Please', Ikonika firmly established her place in the Dubstep landscape. Her unique sound continued to progress with further releases on Hyperdub and Planet Mu, as well as a stunning remix of DJ Mujava's 'Township Funk' (Warp). Ikonika's music combines melodic synth patterns, driving drums, melancholic sub bass and unorthodox song structures, simultaneously heartfelt and heavy. Her tracks have been supported by everyone from Kode9, Martyn and Mary Anne Hobbs (BBC Radio 1) to Rob Da Bank (BBC Radio 1) and Flying Lotus. As an in demand DJ, her sets showcase the constantly mutating underground sounds of the UK, spanning from the freshest Dubstep and Funky dubplates to the classic foundations of House and Garage. With her debut album released on Hyperdub in early 2010, a raft of remixes and a busy DJ schedule, Ikonika is certain to fulfill her potential as one the UK's brightest stars.
“One small dubstep for man, one giant leap for experimental UK club music.” - NME
"If Bjork made dubstep instrumentals, this is what might come out" - DJ Mag
"Real compositional sophistication" - WIRE
"London's diverse dubstep producer" - Mixmag
"Ikonika melds the genre's juddering bass with Aphex Twin-style melodic mischief" - The Guardian
"With influences from hip-hop to hardcore metal, Ikonika's music has many different elements to it. She's constantly referred to as dubstep, but believe us, she's so much more" - iDJ
MUM of Auckland’s Cassette Nine, is proud to present the New Zealand debut appearance of the Australian genre bending dance rock duo- METALS.
METALS is Christopher Coe and Candice Butler.
Chris is a Melbourne based producer/writer/DJ who has been composing, performing and releasing recordings under the Digital Primate moniker for several years now. His most recent release "Keep Calm and Carry On" was mixed by The Mad Professor.
Raised in South Australia, Candice was a published poet at age 11 and grew up on stage and TV, performing as a dancer and actor throughout her childhood.
Finding her heart in hip-hop and neo- soul, she performed with local musicians and by chance came to the attention of Professor Griff of Public Enemy and was invited to perform live with them during their Australian tour. This led to an invitation to record her first demo in Atlanta, produced by Professor Griff himself. Candice jumped at the chance, fully immersing herself in the ALT hip-hop and soul scenes and traveling with Griff and Public Enemy in the US.
On returning to Australia, Candice made Melbourne home and began singing and working on many diverse music projects from rock to house, techno to deep funk. After being spotted MCing at an all female hip hop event in Melbourne, Candice was linked up with Digital Primate. The two then decided to write and record.
Maya and Vanya are a sister duo from Croatia, who have spent half of their life based in New Zealand, where they have been involved with music and spinning records, amongst other things.

Their eclectic, fun sets and vast knowledge in music encompassing cross-cultural style, as well as great stage presence have made them become some of the most in-demand young DJs. Having a slightly different music taste from one another, put together they create a unique blend of music to get the dancefloor pumping. With their styles ranging from upfront House, Tech-house, Old School to the genres they are becoming ever so familiar for such as Tropical and Tribal House music mixed with Dub and Big Bass Lines. But their sound is unique and ever evolving!

Cassette Number Nine 9 Vulcan Lane Auckland, New Zealand
Beats People Movement* in association with Sick Disco! and Dubstep Alliance Aotearoa are proud to bring international guest ADDISON GROOVE to Auckland in October.
Addison Groove is, in fact, an alias of Headhunter, a Dubstep mainstay who’s released a multitude of singles for Tempa as well as an album for the label, Nomad. He’s been playing Chicago juke in his DJ sets for a while now, and his work as Addison Groove is where that influence is allowed to come to the forefront, with stripped down drum machine beats, acid basslines and hip-hop / booty-leaning vocals.
His FACT mix starts off in the 120-130bpm range and finishes at about 160, taking in Detroit Grand Pubahs, Mosca, Ramadanman, Rashad, DJ Spinn and Leatherface along the way. There’s also plenty of unreleased Addison Groove tracks, including ‘Footcrab VIP’.

Nigerian DJ / Producer / Label Owner. Former London resident where he used to play on legendary early UK Internet pirate Radio station Interface as well as various clubs around the UK. He's played everything from Afrobeat to Jungle to Detroit Techno (you want to see his collection of Underground Resistance 12's). After moving to Auckland in 2006 he started the Drunk Elephant Sound System radio show on Base Fm (named after the realisation that Dubstep sounds like a pissed elephant wandering through a jungle). It's also the name of the label he runs. He produces Dubstep as OoGuN, which means there's always a fair sprinkling of exclusive dubs from NZ and overseas producers who he's been playing swapsies with. Now pioneering a sound he calls "Dubhall" he's also got more than a passing interest in music around the 130 bpm range.
Start Time: Thursday, April 8, 2010 at 9:00pm End Time: Friday, April 9, 2010 at 4:00am Location: Cassette Number Nine Street: 9 Vulcan Lane City/Town: Auckland, New Zealand View Map
