JARV’s lifelong love affair with music has deep roots, sprouting in the ‘70s influenced by six older siblings always spinning tunes.  Festivals have been a crucial part of his fabric since his first taste at Sweetwaters ‘83.  JARV’s sets reflect his broad musical palette, recreating his journey from  the reggae-infused snow and surf of Whanganui via the psychedelic experience of cave living in India and the melting pot that was the exploding dance culture of early ‘90s London. Now based in Tāmaki Makaurau, JARV's experimentation across music’s multiple genres continues to evolve. He knows how to party and how to bring the party.

Singer and rapper of Hip-hop, Afro pop and Dancehall and a song writer. Born 22nd May, 2003 in Port Harcourt city. 

Upliftment is a self-produced reggae band based in Paris. Founded in 2013 by Klint (keys, arrangements), the group was later joined by singer-songwriter, Natty Kauka, and a host of musicians of various styles and backgrounds, all united in the goal of mixing authentic Jamaican reggae with jazz, funk, soul, afrobeat and Caribbean stylings.

Starting with songs like "Open Arms," "Believe In Jah" and roots-oriented titles such as "Run Dem Run" and "Boom Bye Bye," the band eventually found its calling, led by a party-inducing horn section led by Yann on trumpet and a rhythm section with Fabien on bass, Guillaume on guitar and Luke on drums. 

In 2014, the band honed its arrangements and developed its signature style under Klint's direction. Delving deep into improvisation, jazz-funk riffs and Natty Kauka's penchant for dancehall, Upliftment created a modern, urban sound rooted in the fundamentals of reggae.

2015 saw the arrival of Charlie on trombone and Bijoux on backing vocals, and new tracks like "Hiroshima," "Love Rising" and "whole of them Chat" redefined the band's sound with new soul-inspired inflections.

Supported by MSF producer, Israel Rinaldo, Upliftment played its first concerts in 2015. The band quickly landed onstage with the likes of The Roots Engine and Youkou Kla. In 2016, Upliftment will be bringing its music to the people with even more concerts and a first foray into the studio to record its first album.



Dubs Botanical HQ is perched on the raw, rugged west coast of New Zealand. Shifting to such a dynamic environment saw Kiwi electronic dub producer Gareth Bailey delve even further into his sonic adventure of melding bass heaviness with lush soundscapes.

Formed in 2009, Beats Botanical is a combination of Gareth’s original productions, live arrangements, synced visuals and guest vocals, including well-known New Zealand singer Ed Waaka and female vocalist Chalky. 

Emerging from the underground with a selection of fresh tunes - including new release Let It Burn (2015) - Beats Botanical lay down dubbed-out live electronica with multimedia projections to give their audience a unique, multi-sensory botanical experience.
