Diesel Jenny x Synthetic Children Tour @Yours Ōtepoti

Two of Aotearoa’s most rungle hardware acts are joining forces for a mid-winter tour across the country this July. Armed with new releases and a reckless lack of MIDI cables, longtime pals Synthetic Children and Diesel Jenny are packing gear into the
whip for a trip up and down the motu. The six-date tour will see the pair serve up their respective dishes in Ōtepoti on Saturday the 5th of July.

Via hardware synths and drum machines, Synthetic Children (Te Papaioea’s Celina Goacher) is bringing bubbly synths, auto-tuned vulnerabilities, and sub-rattling beats. Her latest Smooch EP, and appearance on the Big Fresh Collective’s Footmahi compilation, show an emerging fun side to her dancefloor arsenal, following the murky weight of 2023’s Everything’s Perpetual. Donnys worldwide have heralded the new release as a “freshly cooked 3 course meal, served up by Palmy’s premier snack pack herself”. Think wonky hyperpop with plenty of low end.

Diesel Jenny’s (Pōneke’s Josh Finegan) live set will blend brain-breaking breaks with sugar-rush synths and 3D club energy years. This tour will celebrate the inaugural release of Diesel Jenny’s white label series with a rock-solid RUC-exempt two-tracker.
With multiple releases on underground mainstays Big Fresh Collective and Bankrupt Records as ABG, this isn’t the first time Diesel Jenny’s revved the engine.

Tickets $15 through UTR or available at the door
