n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own—populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness—an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background, as a blur of traffic passing on the highway, as a lighted window at dusk.

U-DAY is a Wellington-based techno DJ with a sound rooted in the shadows and shaped by the underground.

Driven by a deep love for travel and raw, fast-paced techno, his journey has taken him across the globe, absorbing the energy of dancefloors and digging deep into darker sonic territories. With a taste for acid and a no-compromise attitude, it wasn’t long before he stepped behind the decks himself—fueled by the pulse of the music and the artists who inspired him.

His sets are crafted to break away from the expected. U-DAY doesn’t just play tracks—he builds tension, releases chaos, and invites dancers into a world that exists outside the mainstream. Expect a high-intensity ride: dark, fast, and unfiltered.

Together with French/Kiwi artist Moondog, he co-runs Event Horizons—a platform pushing forward-thinking sounds and giving local artists space to be heard. Their latest initiative, The Tiny Studio, is a livestream series spotlighting underground talent from across Auckland and beyond.

He’s shared lineups with global names like Mha Iri, Greenwolve, Meraki, and Samari, and has lit up stages at events like Klangdance, Chupatrance, Geared, Spectrum Festival, Omnishakti Festival, and Yatra Festival.

This is U-DAY. This is the takeover.
