Where sound, movement, and digital performance collide. A space for artists who refuse to pick a lane — DJ culture, live performance art, and dance, running on real tools and raw instinct.
From bedroom sets to live performance. Node Studio is built for DJs and producers who want access to real gear, real acoustics, and a community that takes the craft seriously.
Digital and physical — live visuals, projection, reactive environments, body and code as medium. The space between screen and stage is where Studio operates.
Dance practice and performance — from trained choreography to freestyle expression. Space, sound, and the freedom to move without apology.
Node Studio exists for artists who work with presence — who need a physical space, real equipment, and a community that understands the difference between performance and content.
The model is the same across all of Node: direct contact with how things actually work. No sanitised simulation of a creative space. A real one — built in Auckland, for the people here, doing the work.
Regular open sessions for DJs at every level. Access to decks, mixers, and monitors. Feedback from people who know what they're listening for.
Curated events that blur the line between DJ set, live AV performance, and movement. Not club nights. Something harder to name than that.
Projection, reactive visuals, sensor-driven environments. Studio is a testing ground for work that needs a body in the room to make sense.
Open floor time for choreographers, movement practitioners, and dancers who need space and sound — no mirrors required, no hierarchy.
Short residency-style collaborations for artists combining disciplines — music and movement, visuals and voice, code and choreography.
Connected to the wider Node mission — bringing young people into direct contact with creative disciplines. Real tools, real output, no worksheets.
Node is a physical space in Auckland built on the belief that kids — and adults — are far more capable than we give them credit for, and that genuine agency comes from direct contact with how things actually work.
Studio is the creative arm. Labs does the research and thinking. Works takes on commercial AI engagements. They're separate enough to breathe, connected enough to matter.
"Boredom is a signal that something real is missing." — Node ethos
Whether you're a DJ looking for practice space, a performer building something you can't quite describe, or a young person who just needs a room that takes them seriously — Studio is for you.
