The shocking and stunning are Jack Hooker (synth/sampler) and Sam Lovrich-FitzPatrick (drums). They create dense, trance-inducing music that lies somewhere between dance/noise/drone. The shocking and stunning have been performing since 2010. They've released six EPs, a single, scored a documentary, collaborated with rappers Tourettes and Name UL, toured a lot throughout New Zealand and Australia and have played a bunch of cool festivals. They will release their first full-length album in 2017.
