Anno Domini Returns to the Auckland Art Gallery for 2018
Anno Domini Returns to the Auckland Art Gallery for 2018.
ANNO DOMINI - Auckland’s premier rooftop party - is back again. Following two sold-out summer runs on Auckland Art Gallery’s East Terrace, AD returns for ONE VERY SPECIAL SHOW on Sunday March 11th featuring what is potentially the best line-up to date:
Get ready for the dance of the summer, featuring legendary Detroit electronic music pioneer Moodymann, Melbourne’s finest DJ JNETT, and DJ Mag’s Breakthrough DJ of 2017 Or:la.
Inspired by rooftop
events popular in New York and throughout Europe, Anno
Domini has proven over the last two seasons that it could
deliver on its promise of providing Aucklander's a
purposefully curated yet relaxed afternoon event series,
mixing together great music, food, and drink. With stellar
line-ups of international and local acts, Anno Domini
quickly became one of most in-demand events in Auckland
selling out all of their events and being awarded rave
reviews from both attendees and prestigious publications
including electronic music bible, Resident
Advisor.
Tickets for the Sunday March 11th show go on sale 8am Monday 22nd of January from www.annodomini.nz
Anno Domini is proudly supported by Kronenbourg 1664, Spy Valley Wines, Angostura Rum, Dancing Sands Sacred Spring Gin, Tito's Handmade Vodka and Red Bull. Special thanks also go to the ever-amazing Auckland Art Gallery, who have been an instrumental partner since day one - it simply wouldn't happen without them.
Kenny
Dixon Jr., otherwise known as Moodymann, is
a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a face-mask. Over
the past three decades he has become a cult-hero to anyone
even half-way interested in dance music - with his deep,
immaculate productions becoming timeless pieces of art on
dance-floors worldwide. Despite the mesh of rumours and
silence about his own story, his voice has been one of the
loudest when it comes to preserving and respecting the rich
heritage of Afro-American music that laid the groundwork for
dance music today. And he is such a wild selector, someone
known for pushing the boundaries while making the crowd
move.
Melbourne native Janette Pitruzzello aka
DJ JNETT has been spinning records and
creating heat in Melbourne’s music industry since the
early 90s. She is one of Australia’s biggest house
luminaries. DJ JNETT has a heavyweight knowledge and sincere
love for music combined with a blissful stage presence,
which continuously leaves dance floors euphoric, hugging and
smiling the night away. Dress to sweat.
UK DJ and
musician Orlagh Dooley, aka Or:la, had the
perfect year in 2017. She released more of her dynamic
productions on Hotflush, launched the label
Deep Sea Frequency, and continued to play
her revered, genre-melding DJ sets everywhere from
fabric and The Warehouse
Project to her own nomadic Meine
Nacht club night. It’s really no surprise she was
named DJ Mag’s Breakthrough DJ of 2017 and One
to Watch in 2018 by Mixmag. Her debut NZ show at Anno
Domini will be unmissable.
Local party-heroes Friendly Potential DJs will be providing the resident’s touch from kick-off.
