Hotboxed NYE x TML Festival

This NYE on Kurland we have an intimate celebration.

Some of our roots are grounded in Plett but, we feel like we might have lost touch. Our New Years Eve is our way of rediscovering Plett and refining our impact on the coast.

December 31st 2025 will be focused on warm house music! Bringing us into 2026 with soulful sound.

Our line-up is a multi-talented selection of Cape Town’s artists. Including a few younger producers from our label and some more established music heads.

Please take a moment to read slide two. It includes important details about ticketing, the waiting list, and how our shuttle services will operate.

We thought it important to take a moment.

For #TML23, we had two warm stages and incredible selectors. Some of our favorite moments from last year appear in this edit.

Lola Palmer, who joined us all the way from Amsterdam preforming at The Stables. The unforgettable Gather closing by S.A.M in true sensory altering style and the art of Cyan Eyes & Ghilian Chevelou spread throughout the venue.

For now, enjoy these moments from last year and get onboard for #TML24

@palmerlola @sam_schneiderman_ @ghilian.pdf @cyan_eyez

TML25 was a major highlight for us, and we couldn’t go without showing love to the work done by @meltstudio_cpt

Nick created the logo using recycled plastic, and an incredible amount of thought and effort went into bringing this beautiful design to life.

Total amount of plastic processed and recycled by weight : 20,55kgs.

The Circle back board is made from Industrial LDPE waste. A total of 17,5kgs was used to make up the board.

Each of the letters weighed 436 grams, total weight of the seven letters = 3.05 kgs and was made up of 45 milk bottles (HDPE) and 152 pink bottle tops (HDPE).

Thank you @meltstudio_cpt

Thank you to everyone that joined us for the Hotboxed NYE x TML Festival. Thank you Kurland for allowing us to work on such beautiful grounds. Thank you to the artists for having the courage to stand up there and do what they do. Importantly, thank you to the dancers who give the music a chance. #TML25

We’re grateful to be hosting these artists on Kurland for our TML25.

username666.021 x Ray Bennett are a black-to-back we know and trust. Two respected house heads with undeniable style, moving together as one under their alias, @black.2back

Joan stands out as one of our favourite selectors. His sets continue to inspire us, and his style speaks for itself. With a sound shaped by diverse club genres, and as co-founder of Smalltown Beat and Movida, he stands as an active contributor to the growth of Cape Town’s evolving underground. We look forward to his “rhythms aimed at the lower extremities” as he closes the show.

Ben Probert x GoneSouth represent the next wave. Two talented young artists whose production skills feature on the Hotboxed Records VA002. Together, they’ll guide us gently through the sunset.

Gallagher x Kyle OBR have come off a great year of playing together. From Texas to Torté, festival stages to small bars, the two have been spinning and growing in their sound.

Opening the experience is Kal C, an artist who cares deeply about the scene and the subtle details that hold it together. Often working in the shadows, this New Year’s Eve she steps up to open the show!
