High Carb Boil Up II - 5 Piece Funk Band. If were lucky to come to our Havana Soulstice sell out party you would have experience how epic these guys are!!!!!! The VIBE is so epic with these Guys
The band of Wellington Conservatorium (Jazz) Alumni now based and living in the BOP area, HCBU II are, as the name suggests the second iteration of the original Wellington quartet founded by Rio Hemopo–Hunuki (Trinity Roots co-founder and bassist).Like a good boil up, the second day is even tastier or in this case iteration II. HCBU II main ingrediants are - Twin Set co-founder PK Hoskin on the tubs, the talented Chris Williamson on guitar, with Rio Hemopo -Hunuki locking down the bottom end . Rounding out the core flavours this time around is Toi Oho Mai Head of Music, Ben Wilcock (Bella Kalolo).

Jamin-I:
Jamin-i has been been behind the scenes and the plates organising the famous Raglan Sunday Sessions. A legend of a dude, nicest person ever, with a crate so deep of high-quality tunes, that he will get you on the dance floor uncontrollably.His recent set at SPLORE was so good, we couldn't wait to see if Jamin-i had availability for a Boat Party in Rotorua and drop that set here with you! Jamin-I's passion of Bassculture and conscious messages has pushed his cart to all sorts of genres over the years. With sets from reggae/dub/hip hop and swing through to dubstep/moombahton/trap and drum n bass, you'll always be noticing that vintage and tropical influence.

RIO DJ Nero:
By day Rio is a singer songwriter in one of NZ's best ever bands (Trinity Roots), by night he has also been spending a lot of time behind the decks and is a black belt in mixing and selecting tunes!
Expect a set filled with funk, hip hop and new school jams. Selecting tunes and filling dance floors for years, another absolute weapon behind the decks DJ Nero.
