OAKLEY GRENELL: For twelve years, Grenell’s been steadily releasing projects under his own Central Records and heading up bands that include The Otautahi Allstars, Departure Lounge, The Eskimo Squad and his former production moniker OG.
LATINAOTEAROA: came from the concept of blending local flavours with the colourful
cultures of South America. Brazilian born Auckland DJ Bobby Brazuka and Venezuelan
singer Jennifer Zea created a unique live performance with Bobby’s Latin influenced
soul-funk and hip hop selections layered with Jennifer’s ravishing vocals.
