Shankara NZ are a cross pollination between dub instrumentalists and bass music sculptors Brendan and Elijah. Hailing from the pristine landscape of the South Island of Aotearoa, this duo’s collaborative odyssey has conjured up high-fidelity hybrid dub-styles on internationally acclaimed labels Shanti Planti, Dubmission, Desert Trax and Street Ritual At the root of the Shankara NZ style are the sounds of jungle, dubstep, techno and latin with a gentle orbit of ambient textures. This culmination of original soundscapes, innovative composition and foundation influences tethers together a unique, grounding, yet energetic listening and connecting experience for any dancefloor or audience. Shankara NZ have etched themselves as a festival staple throughout their home country, as well as establishing themselves at major events across Europe, USA, UK, Australia and South East Asia, including performing at the 2023 edition of transformational festival colossus O.Z.O.R.A.. With a plethora of shows and releases incoming in 2024, Shankara NZ are an ever evolving force who continually strive for original sound design and deeper connection with the foundations of dubwise culture.
