DJ Noiz x Kennyon Brown
Kennyon Brown
Already making his mark on the worldwide R&B scene in the past few years, Kennyon Brown no doubt is destined for massive things in no time. Born in Auckland, New Zealand with his family of Samoan descent - Brown spent the teenage years of his life amongst Southern Californian cities Long Beach and Anaheim re-locating to Sydney as a young adult. Making his mark on the local R&B scene with the track titled "Cocaine" featuring long-time friend William Singe, Kennyon Brown appeared on various singles with frequent collaborator(s) Fortafy and Donell Lewis throughout early 2015 gaining a bigger fanbase by the week.
This led to Brown's break through single "All On Me" featuring Fortafy being released in September, 2015 which was added to high rotation on The Edge 96.1 (Australia) and MaiFm (NZ) and hit 1 million views on the music video in a matter of months. Due to the success of this single, the two paired up to release "Your Body" with momentous success and the audio on YouTube is well over 10 million streams to date.
If touring AU & NZ performing over 30+ shows in 2016 and dropping countless bangers throughout the year wasn't enough, Kennyon Brown embarked on his debut European tour headlining over 10+ shows with frequent collaborator Donell Lewis and together they released "Legooo" in April 2017. 'Legooo' was an enormous success for the independent pair topping the NZ Heatseeker album charts for 2 weeks straight and spawned the single "Whine 4 Me" which topped the urban and airplay charts in Germany. Soaring off this success Kennyon Brown along with Donell Lewis and good friend DJ Noiz embarked on a run of headline tours throughout Australia and New Zealand over the course of 2017 and dropped their reggae inspired R&B numbers "Morning Ride" and "She Mad She Angry", raking up over 5 million views in under a year between both, which now have a combination of 30 million streams for both records.
Pushing boundaries in R&B and Reggae, Kennyon Brown made his debut USA and Hawaii tour in March 2018 alongside fellow collaborators Donell Lewis and DJ Noiz selling out shows in San Jose, Los Angeles, Seattle, Salt Lake City and Las Vegas – and were invited to perform on selected shows with Missouri Reggae / R&B star Spawnbreezie. In late 2018, Brown returned back to Australia and hit the road, completing his most successful year to date headlining over 40 dates across Australia and New Zealand. His sophomore headline USA tour embarked for the month of March 2019 and was met with strong success headlining shows in California, Utah, Arizona, Nevada Oregon and Washington State to a handful of sold out audiences in each state. Brown has since returned home and announced his inclusion in the inaugural "Future Nesian Festival".
Outside of this, Brown has not only released an array of collaborations with DJ Noiz and Donell Lewis but Brown recently went on to release his highly antipcated debut solo EP titled "Out The Blue" in March 2020, with 2 sold out headline launch parties in Sydney Australia on "Glass Island" cruise over Sydney Harbour. Following the COVID pandemic and lack of touring in 2020, Kennyon linked up with EDM household name Joel Fletcher and released 2 collab effort(s) titled "Vibe" and "Changes", which have since amassed over 20 million streams combined.

Entering a new world of fame for the R&B / Island icon, his recent key release "Island Girl" featuring Donell Lewis and DJ Noiz, has an astounding 18 million streams in only 1 Year. So be on the look out for a huge 2024 for this young and eager musician.
DJ Noiz
Known as "The Remix King", DJ Noiz has become a household name across the Pacific. After humble beginnings, growing up with a strong Samoan and Tongan heritage in the small-town of Robinvale in the south west of NSW, Noiz relocated to the Ipswich-Goodna region of Brisbane with his family as an adult. He soon burst on to the scene in 2012 and became a Soundcloud favourite with his unique island style reggae remixes racking up an astonishing 15 million streams in the first 2 years of being active. Noiz found himself having a huge demand in Australia and New Zealand, headlining club events every weekend for the next 3 years and dropping his remixes through his multiple Soundcloud and YouTube accounts on a regular basis.
In 2016, Noiz found himself as a premier DJ and producer, collaborating and remixing the best in Polynesian reggae and R&B artists. He was subsequently nominated at The 2nd Annual World Remix Awards, in the Rap Category, for his remix of the Kent Jones hit "Don't Mind", alongside some of the biggest DJ's in the world. This wasn't enough for Noiz and he soon released his debut single featuring Konecs and Vili Langi titled "Ofa Mai" which has racked up an impressive 40 million streams to date.
Coming into the years of 2018 and 2019, Noiz had a run of impressive chart topping party joints including "Chill", "Better Days", and "Tati", followed by the acclaimed record "Amelia". Between them, they have amassed over 40 million streams and set a solid foundation from which the producer/DJ headlined 2 tours in the United States, over 80 shows in Australia and also travelled for headline dates to New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Cook Islands and New Caledonia. In 2020, during his time in lockdown, Noiz's 2nd ever release "Senorita" went viral on TikTok all over Asia and throughout the USA and South Pacific, now sitting on over 1.5 Million TikTok videos and 50 million streams world wide.
Fast forward to 2021 and with touring still an uncertainty, Noiz turned his focus to dropping more music and decided to play around with some classic records, flipping the chilled country classic "Neon Moon" by the legendary Brooks & Dunn to his own flavour of uptempo island reggae, which sent the internet into meltdown. It was one of the biggest TikTok trends in 2021 with over 2 Million Videos created and over 30 Million Streams on YouTube alone. Noiz also had a healthy year of releases, producing the hit record "Lady Love" by Bina Butta & Kennyon Brown plus releasing his own list of hit records including "Amene Iesu", "Whole Vibe", "My Best" and many more. With touring and events restarting in early 2022, Noiz instantly hit the road and headlined sold out tours in the USA, Australia and New Zealand, alongside fellow FutureNow artists Kennyon Brown & Bina Butta.
In 2023, DJ Noiz had a stand out year releasing more and more party anthems including Come My Way, Do Dat and Speechless as well as remixing the Fijian party anthem Siviyara Me Yara, which took the Pacific Island community by storm on TikTok racking up over 700,000 videos to date. His "Still The One" remix featuring Mikey Mayz is currently trending in NZ, sitting on the NZ Singles charts for 24 weeks straight and counting. He has enjoyed international success selling out his debut headline show in Papua New Guinea, followed by a huge performance at Samoa's Motherland Festival and not long after returning to the United States for a 12 show tour, including his debut headline show in New York City, in which 7 shows were sold out. He then went on to do his first ever headlining show in the UK, which was a huge success having sold out a 600 capacity venue in London with no local partners, an incredible achievement by an independent artist from Australia.
Reutrning to Australia in September, he went on for key performances at Promiseland 2023 on the Gold Coast, Eden Festival and Homelands Festival in Auckland, October 2023. He then collaborated with Criimson, Donell Lewis and Pieter T on key singles "Satisfied" and "Bendo" with over 5 million streams between them to date. All 4 artists recently completed 2 Australian tours and 1 New Zealand tour together totalling 18 shows in Australia and 10 shows in New Zealand including a performance at the world renowed One Love Festival in Tauranga.
Moving forward in 2024, Noiz will be back on the touring circuit in a big way, with key performances locked in at Promiseland Festival 2024 (Gold Coast, Australia) and Eden Festival 2024 (Auckland, NZ) plus a recently announced 10+ headline tour across Australia. This will be accompanied by a long list of remix drops and abundance of new music, so be on the look out for the Remix King, DJ Noiz!
