The current incarnation of Auckland's porous rock band Pumice is Jade Farley (Violin, Guitar, Keyboards) and Stefan Neville (Reed Organ, Synth, Guitar, Vocals, Tapes). Lately the duo have been extending the circular melodies and breathing drones stumbled upon on last years Platelets 7" (Soft Abuse Records) into a soft sonic stillness with distressed shanty interludes. The new album ‘Table’ by Pumice will be released in 2020 on Soft Abuse Records.

Ducklingmonster is an audio-visual artist from Onehunga. She reimagines out-of-bounds areas through a range of practices, including music, video, comics, and performance, with a focus on disruption. Publicly, her work has predominantly been in noisy sound, most notably in the group The Futurians, and more recently solo. She is is a core member of the Tāmaki based collective Uniform. Sonically she utilises handbuilt and broken electronics, field recordings, presets, drum machine, keyboard, and vocals.
