As you start to notice the real change in season, at least you have something to look forward to. M*A*S*S*I*V*E Winter Soulstice is taking place on June 30th in the foothills of the Southern Alps.
M*A*S*S*I*V*E Winter Soulstice returns for another year, yeah! June 30, 2012 the crew heads back to the foothills of the Southern Alps to present an epic line up of some of the finest NZ musicians and DJs to grace the stages of this fine country.
The event will consist of 4 zones; an electronic stage, a band stage (moving into a bass zone for the early hours), a chill stage and a tribal fire zone. Genres for the evening will cover Dubstep, Drum n Bass, Psy Trance, Glitch Hop, Reggae, Techno, Tech House, downbeat, chill and everything in between.
Tickets: $30 presales, or $40 on the gate. These can be purchased at Cosmic NZ Palms, Restart Mall and Marbecks Westfield Mall, or online: http://cosmicticketing.co.nz/event/show/1790
We are providing heaps of covered space, a fire and hot coffee and food. Please remember to prepare for the outdoor conditions, bring: warm clothes, a torch, plenty of water and friends. Please leave your dogs, glass and alcohol at home.
The Electronic Zone showcases a huge range of genres across the electronic spectrum. Jam packed with talented live acts, producers and DJs this zone is guaranteed to get you stompin’. There will also be live visuals action from team of VJs giving you another form of stimulation.
The Band Zone delivers the biggest lineup of bands to be seen at a M*A*S*S*I*V*E party in some time. We look forward to hosting these great bands outdoors! This zone becomes bass music oriented for the second part of the night delivering an awesome array from oldschool jungle to DnB and concluding with a live performance from Wisdom of Shankara.
In the Chill Zone, we are stoked to have some truly standout artists, both international and local, playing music on the more subtle and chilled tip. This zone will be nice and cosy and relaxed, and also host visual media from various M*A*S*S*I*V*E parties over the years - what a treat!
The Tribal Fire Zone is always a nice place to spend some time, whether it be playing a drum, getting captivated by the fire, or hang with mates and warm up. Feel free to bring a drum!
