Shli is the alias of Ōtautahi-via-Pōneke DJ and Producer Tim Ward. Steadily releasing works over recent years through local labels like Echo Train and the Big Fresh Collective, he is carving out a sound of his own. Stitching together infectious rhythms layered over low-end pressure, Shli’s sets draw influence from across the hardcore continuum and beyond. Creating dancefloor moments from trippy rhythmic states to unleashing sheer bass weight.
