Who We Are

Uplifting our people and with a focus on educating the next generation of Maori & Pacific Youth through music, Island Base is a platform consisting of an International online station, Events & Production company and Recording studio.

Nationally and internationally recognised, the Island Base mission is to connect the people of the South Pacific by providing a fun and safe environment for rangatahi of all ages for self-expression and to find their own voice.
