Zig Zag Massive (ZZM)

Zig Zag Massive, or ZZM, is a drum and bass Massive founded by Injest, Sensei, General Selekt, and Miss Celium, with Clang joining more recently. Since their first event in late 2019, held deep in the misty Hunua Ranges, ZZM has been steadily growing a small but dedicated community drawn to the raw, powerful energy of outdoor drum and bass. Injest and Sensei, masters of neuro DNB, anchor ZZM’s signature sound with their intricate, hard-hitting rhythms, while Clang and General Selekt add elements of Ragga, Jungle and Breakbeat, and Miss Celium brings the dark edge of 140 and Dubstep. Expanding the collective’s range, outer members bring flavors of bass house and dancefloor DNB, creating an experience that’s both primal and diverse.

ZZM’s gatherings are more than just parties; they’re immersive journeys into a world where heavy basslines and forested surroundings fuse with ancient, primal energy. With events like “Ape Mode,” “UPDOG” “Riddim Majestic,” and their most recent and largest events, “Deep Green Voyage,” and “Trip Hazard,” each gathering invites ravers to lose themselves in the pulse of the drum and bass spectrum. Set against the natural backdrop of their homeland, the Hunua Ranges, ZZM crafts an experience that’s both tribal and transformative, transporting attendees into a realm where the connection to music and nature is as deep as the basslines that reverberate through the trees.

As ZZM’s community continues to grow, they remain committed to nurturing a unique presence within New Zealand’s bush doof culture, fostering both unity and a profound connection with nature. For ZZM, every event is a shared journey, an invitation for ravers to leave behind the everyday and embrace the freedom of the open forest and the pulse of the music. With a deep respect for their surroundings, ZZM’s gatherings are as much about oneness with nature as they are about the music itself, creating a space where the community and landscape become one with the beat. To enhance this experience, ZZM has reinvested everything into their sound system, lights, and decor, continually striving to provide a growing and better experience for all who attend.
