Welcome to the ebbs and flows of The Naked World.
For this special edition of After Glow, we’re bringing the electricity of an Undie Party into an intimate nightclub setting — with two DJ lineups running across the night and a dancefloor designed for colour, connection, and creative expression.
Two Lineups. Undie Party Rules.
Genitals must be covered. All nipples are equal.
On the floor, say hello to our roaming Consent Guardians.
Dresscode: Neon
This is not a spectators’ event. Creative expression is the law of the land.

Important
We’ve had a venue change for this event. Unfortunately the original venue is no longer able to host us, so we’ve shifted to a more intimate nightclub setting in Auckland CBD.
Running events that challenge social norms can occasionally mean navigating a few bumps along the road — but the dance floor always finds its way.
As a thank you for your support, everyone holding a ticket to this event will receive a complimentary ticket to one of our new CLEAR dance sessions, running every Thursday at il brutto from 2 April 2026.
Thank you for continuing to show up with curiosity, creativity, and respect. 🖤

INHALE (Room 01)
20:00 — Facettes
Facettes draws from his Mediterranean heritage and the hypnotic storytelling of One Thousand and One Nights — but at TN.W {After Glow}, those ancient rhythms are dipped in neon and set alight.
A true sonic storyteller, Facettes doesn’t just play music — he unfolds it. Layer by layer, groove by groove, he guides the dancefloor into a mesmerising world where time softens and bodies move instinctively.
His soundscape is rich and transportive — contemporary electronic rhythms infused with Mediterranean melodies, Middle Eastern textures, and organic Afro-house percussion.Warm drums pulse like a heartbeat. Exotic tones shimmer through the air. Basslines roll deep and sensual.
There’s mystery in his builds. Seduction in his drops. A sense that you’re being led somewhere — somewhere glowing, somewhere unforgettable.
At TN.W {After Glow}, expect a journey through rhythm and ritual — a dancefloor wrapped in colour, heat, and hypnotic groove.
22:00 — BAYKER
BAYKER weaves tension and release into a melodic experience that feels like standing under ultraviolet light at 2am... intimate, expansive, and completely electric.
Born in Aotearoa and forged in the underground of Berlin, he spent six years immersed in the city’s iconic electronic scene, crafting emotive Melodic House & Techno that bridges deep groove with atmospheric intensity. His sound is both cinematic and visceral: rhythm-driven, pulse-led, and built for bodies in motion.
A standout collaboration with Berlin-based group GHEIST on Salvation propelled him onto the global stage; reaching #14 on the Beatport charts. His follow-up EP Howl, released via RADAU, climbed to #20 on the global Melodic House & Techno chart and secured #3 and #4 on Beatport’s Hype list, showcasing his ability to fuse driving basslines with his own haunting vocals.
Now back in New Zealand, BAYKER continues his sonic mission via his imprint ZELAND, releasing tracks that echo with depth, emotion, and late-night magnetism.
At TN.W {After Glow}, expect a deep, driving set that builds like neon heat: pulsing, immersive, and impossible to step away from. This is the sound of tension lit in ultraviolet.
00:00 — AIA
AIA (Alexandra Ngaia) is an Auckland-born selector and sonic architect who brings emotional flow, rhythmic curiosity, and heart to every set. Rooted in electronic vibes and hammered with groove, her mixes are dynamic blends of energy, melody, and unexpected turns; designed to move bodies and lift spirits under colour-soaked lights.
With a love for remixing and reimagining tracks (her recent Cruel remix and imaginative edits showcase her evolving musical vision), AIA crafts sound journeys that are both bold and fluid, at once familiar and refreshingly fresh.
Beyond the decks, she’s a creative force with deep local roots in Auckland’s vibrant community of artists and nightlife culture. Follow her evolution as she pushes genre boundaries, fuses emotion with groove, and brings luminous energy to every room she touches.
At TN.W {After Glow}, expect AIA to guide the floor through waves of rhythm and colour; weaving tension and release into a set that feels alive, warm, and glowing.
02:00 — Bushi
You never quite know whether to stand still and absorb it, close your eyes and feel it, or stomp the floor in pure release.
Bushi blends melodic and progressive techno and house with ambient layers, vocal harmonies, and long, hypnotic blends — crafting emotional journeys that glow from the inside out. Each set builds with intention, tightening the atmosphere like charged air beneath neon lights, before unleashing unexpected, hard-hitting drops that ignite the room.
Drawing you in with lush soundscapes, pulsating basslines, and cinematic rises, Bushi plays with anticipation like it’s an instrument — holding you suspended in ultraviolet tension, then plunging you into something wild, euphoric, and beautifully uncontained.
Textures shimmer. Rhythms rumble. Drops land like a flash of light across a dark dancefloor.
Whether weaving melodic techno, deep house, or atmospheric breaks, his sets are immersive and alive — built for bodies moving under glow paint and sweat-slicked strobes. His beats don’t just move you — they vibrate through your chest like a second heartbeat, syncing you to the collective pulse of the night.
At TN.W {After Glow}, Bushi doesn’t just play music — he lights the fuse. Prepare to surrender to the glow.

EXHALE (Room 02)
20:00 — Gwendolyn
Coined the Sparkly Weapon of Bass Destruction, Gwendolyn is glitter, grit, and seismic bass wrapped into one unstoppable force.
Serving full lyrics, unapologetic drops, and chest-rattling low end, her sets are high-voltage and high-impact; built for sweat-slick skin, hands in the air, and zero inhibition. Expect big bass, bold energy, and moments that hit so hard they shimmer under strobe light.
An intersex transgender queen, Gwendolyn doesn’t just command a dancefloor, she protects it. Fiercely committed to creating a safe, electric space for everyone (especially the LGBTQIA+ community), her mission is simple: for all to be seen, heard, and held in respect, compassion, and love.
Under neon lights and bass pressure, she reminds you why we gather... to move, to connect, to be exactly who we are.
Take note of her heartfelt catchphrase:
“Remember I love you, as you, how you arrive.” 🙋♀️🏳️⚧️💖
At TN.W {After Glow}, expect sparkle, power, and bass that detonates with intention.
22:00 — Samuraii
Emerging from the depths of Stokes Vegas, Samuraii brings a refined edge to the underground.
His sound is hypnotic, driving and unapologetically sensual, with rolling basslines, dark textures and slow-burning tension that builds with intention. This isn’t techno for the faint-hearted; it’s for bodies that move with purpose.
There is discipline in his sets. Precision. Control. A steady hand on the blade.
Samuraii crafts late-night journeys for dim lights, locked eyes and sweat on skin, where the line between restraint and release begins to blur.
Sexy techno. Sharp energy. No wasted movement.
Enter the dojo.
00:00 — Sauna
Sauna brings the heat; and under neon lights, she burns even brighter.
One of Auckland’s sexiest groove merchants, Sauna drops beats like the whole room is watching. Her sets are confident, sultry, and rhythm-heavy, built for bodies that want to move closer and stay there.
Basslines roll warm and steady. Percussion flickers like light across bare skin. Lush blends melt seamlessly into bold selections that lift the floor one pulse at a time.
Her energy is magnetic — playful yet powerful — sending waves through the crowd that feel both intimate and electric. When Sauna takes control, the dancefloor doesn’t just move… it radiates.
At TN.W {After Glow}, expect rising temperature, glowing bodies, and grooves that feel like 3am wrapped in neon heat.
