Arokx
AROKX is a pure product of the NZ scene. Proving that if electronic music is meant for you it will find you. While his childhood friends were listening to gangsta rap/hip hop the sounds of deep melodic Techno were calling from the subterranean of Auckland. A spiritual calling to Shipwrecked festival resulted in a residency on the BOAT stage in 2015.
Catching the eyes and ears of international promoters with his raw talent a jaunt to Melbourne was called for, Supporting HNQO / Hot Creations. After laying down a truly good closing set, Arokx was launched around the circuit in Melbourne performing @ hotspots such as Circus Sundays, Killing Time, Revolver, Rainbow Serpent Festival, Pelican Villa, Rubix Warehouse, 3Fold Radio KISSFM and the very first few Breakfast Club events to name a few.
Getting booked for many other festivals & bush doofs, playing alongside his favourite producers and ending up getting on it with Kevin Spacey as well as staying at Ned Kelly's family home in Talbot...This honestly was a lot to handle for lil Arokx from Maraetai Beach. Advice from friends about Melbournes vortex and traps around the circuit was given but inevitably it got him a good one.
Now with his head back on track after going deep within himself in the Northland bush production bunker underneath the stars to come back to his true self, Arokx saw his music production as literally the only way forward.
Now a firm fixture on the NZ Scene and releasing his own music on record labels SUN EXPLOSION (Berlin), CULTRUN CULT (Chile/NZ), FAFO RECORDS (SYD). Arokx is somewhat getting started, now showing us his production on stage with his original tracks sitting nicely beside artists such as Antix/ Out of sorts, Maxi Basshead (hoodat), Tom Baker and others. This is one act that will keep you engaged until the very end, giving the audience a whole new world of sound & vibration to be immersed in.
