Young and A Siren King looks into the underground Auckland street scene where people blast loud music from specially-mounted speakers on bikes and cars. We meet some of the siren leaders, and find out why the unique combination of beats, pride and community is bridging gang divides.

I didn't even know it was sirens I thought your speakers blown
Get your Google out and look tinnitus. You'll all be tripping with the sirens but it will be in your heads 24/7 and you won't be able to turn it off.
Truth. People need to be educated about the dangers of hearing damage. It doesn't go back to normal after it's been done. And it's not only their own hearing they'll damage.
Creating loud music and fire hazards since way back
Zero concern for people who are trying to sleep at night. These pricks drive around all parts of Auckland all night...all for the love of sound.
and proud
Mad respect for this and not resorting to violence and all that, but I just want my sleep back...
Mad respect for stealing from schools and public venus that are there for everyone to use. Mad respect. Many the faster they figure out a sterilizing system the better aye.
@@mat4260 It isn't everyone its only for the people who are to broke to buy their own so they steal from others most people work for hard for their own things, Keep that in mind lmao. 💀
@@mat4260mad stereotypical ay fgt
It's all for the love of sound... yet the music is played thru a siren??
they cant afford a 1200 dollar sounds system.
@@SuperKinahead so boost loud shitty sound for everyone hear instead?
Yeah nah...
@@agnz what are on about
@@SuperKinahead bit slow on the uptake I see. 🤦
@@agnz No, because what you just said makes no sense.
They already using crappy sirens that "boost" their sounds, and everyone can already hear it.
And the fact that you cant even explain what you said, tells me you dont even know what your on about.
Troubles everywhere no matter where you go..... Its called make better decisions an take accountability!
Imagine fighting over who’s siren is the loudest 😂😂😂 fucking bongas
100% agree mate, need to deport these coconut criminals mate👌🏻 most of nz would agree, Kia kaha malo leleleile👌🏻🔥
@@billcook5834 me and da usos helping with da great replacement😂 I'm ur son in Law welcome to apiackland🤣😂🇦🇸🇨🇰

It's better than being menaces causing havoc 🤷
I love how you guys have the same railroad crossing signals as us including the bells
Not my kinda scene but mad respect, keep it peaceful out there boys✌🏻
Good luck to the young fella moving to Australia for a better life. Make your family proud mate.

Lmao Australia is worse good luck in deed
@@michaelmyers9267 worse but you guys make more money and wear flash clothes? Don’t sound like any struggles compared to ours🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️
Should do an apprenticeship as an electrician in NZ instead, can learn more about installing speakers. The government are offering free apprenticeships here now and they make good money.
What makes you think australia wants him? It definitely does not need him.
they are not sirens, they are stolen PA horns, causing disruption to everyone in earshot
Does anyone know how to set up the siren to a speaker with a switch??
Anyone got receipts for those speakers?
I heard a real sad story from a single mum whose baby kept getting woken up by siren music, and was feeling suicidal. You might be "all for the love of sound", but think about her before you hit the switch.
Yea like nobody ever had neighbors that played loud music...
@@sammmm87 All night? With siren speakers on the outside of their house? Nah, that's not a thing and if it was, noise control would confiscate that shit.
@@natelion1022 she said it was from siren music, so it would be from cars driving around, not her next door neighbours?
@@taviddua9015 I know. The other commenter was saying that siren music is equivalent to having a neighbour playing loud music. I was pointing out the differences.
My question is how the fuck does a baby know what suicide is-
Everyone gangster until some mf pulls up with an American federal signal modulator or an EOWS-612
They not doing it for music cos yu can easily listen to headphones n be cool instead of having thirty speakers on a car or bike and then blasting them stupid thats attention seeking lol.and i could imagine the sound quality sucks i bet a pair of budget samsung headphones has a better tone 😂😂😂
No, it does even begin to compare to siren jams
If you've heard nothing irl then don't be judging, Sirens be sounding like that from their own preference and you clearly haven't used budget samsung headphones cause those are bare shit if I have to be honest lol.
Confucious says.... Empty vessel rings loudest.
I’m the fastest finger I the west and east give us your number and feel my power
Nothing like seing a car full of gangsters, then you hear , 🎶 THE WHISPERS IN THE MORNING 🎶...😂 malo boys.
18:37 Now I know why I do keep hearing fireworks nearby to our place every night lol
question is where are they doing the siren battles in austrailia??
no lmao
Why not use a proper decibel meter for volume?
Neglects tone as an aesthetic judgement
To poor toko
Anyone got the name of song at 1711 or songs normally used
Whoever knows this guy knows he's a troublemaker, talking all that shit about keeping out of crimes yet him and his crew are forever repping crips and getting in trouble 🤦
He literally said he can’t stop getting in trouble…that’s why he’s moving overseas.
@@joefalo526 Great, now he can keep causing trouble in Australia. You're a fool if you think anyone "can't stop" getting into trouble.
@@tiat3137 shut up anyone can just need to surround yourself with a good circle
@@tiat3137 and that’s why he’s moving 😂 do you not get it?😂 he’s moving to aus to leave his criminal life here and to start fresh in aus not a fresh criminal start but a start where he can be fresh and stay positive to the new community 🤣🤦🏽♀️
@@joefalo526dreaming if you think he self aborted nz. He prob got kicked out cause he broke his visa conditions so many times. Oz has a soft spot for the islands. They pay to keep half of them breeding because "it's the tight thing to do" but this is the consequence.
Sirens look flash but the type of songs they play...
anyone know what shop to buy the from???
Are u sure ur not going to aus to hide toks what happened to crips do your thang haha lol 😂 😂
🤣
haha alg dox, aint easy leaving your whole hood, family and life behind cuhs no time to play and remember this is for his family.
Haha loi peia toks just remember aus is a whole diff level they don’t do it how uz do it bk home… be good n always crips do your thang cuhz…. Ouaaaa.
does anyone know the song at the start?
You're going to damage your hearing, guys. Look up tinnitus. Once you've got it, you're stuck with it. You'll regret it, but it will be too late. There is a serious lack of understanding in regards to how fragile and precious our ears are.
im pre sure I already developed it as a baby due to my family always blasting their hivas every day at 6 in the morning
Us poly's had it at a young age from all the loud music we have to endure too so theres no use of trying to convince others about this when most likely we'd all have it.
where do u buy sirens from
We're do you buy them from
I never understood the scene coming from an outsider. But this really opened my eyes. Good shit boys.
School speakers were stolen last week but recovered by police… guess what they were being used for 👀👀😂😂😂😂😂
It's easy to understand, the louder you are the smaller your pennis
Bro schools have enough money to buy some more it's not like they don't get paid from several hundred people
Where do buy ur siren from
Music hood
From Ds?😂

Awesome interview
Wouldnt car speakers on the outside sound better? Or are they more popular as you can get them for "free" easier
Kicked out of school and this what you come up with
Thanks for the insight
Ofa Atu Boys ❤️ REST IN LOVE DOM!
Don't forget to put on your hearing protection and good luck brother's
What's the name of the song the first dude played????
Just dont do it out of the blue around elderly idiots, we went from Bass Booming 90s to tinny as school sirens lol
Surprised how not single one of these cars stickered by the cops, doubt they can pass Wof with those setups
Good on you toko for making the move i did the same thing nearly four years ago best move i ever made your family will be proud

We all know that some of the speakers people have are stolen from our local schools. Shouldn't promote this if you know you've obtained it illegally. Just saying

@@sianamaryjane speakers are only $20
@@sammmm87 noooo broo
So now i know why there's often cars driving around playing crappy pop music up real loud, drowning out the neighbourhood throughout Christchurch.. I get it now.. swapping punchups & gang fights for sound battles.. As a raver who has attended a few non-consented generator parties in my lifetime i don't have any major gripe with sound within reason.. But my biggest gripe with this sound is the terrible quality & mostly the terrible music.. Really its mostly the absolutely horrendous music played through the speakers.. Learn some better music. Oldshool hiphop, some reggae, a huge variety of electronic music from drum & bass to techno to house & disco, some funk, some jazz, some dub & some dubstep.. Play some better music through those loudspeakers & maybe i wont hate them so much..
Do u like the song irie beach party?
Having swidt play throughout the episode was mean. 👊👊
I got goosebumps watching this. NOT because I'm into sirens(personally I can't stand em'/ no offence) but because it made me proud seeing young people interacting a positive way, keep it up guys
@@Harambe_ Yea I'm always ecstatic when one of these jackasses wakes up our baby at 1-3am with their boombox vehicles in Mt Wellington...
What is positive about waking my baby up on a Wednesday night at 3am playing 'f*ck the police'. Your just as braindead as them.
stealing sirens from schools and putting them on bikes is far from a positive interaction 😂
What you need to understand is playing loud music with sirens attached on the vehicle is a misdemeanour. There is abso - fucking - lutely zero reason for anyone hearing your music besides the driver and anyone in the vehicle. Please educate yourself for the sake of society on this matter. What they’re doing can cause mental health, or hearing related health issues to functioning members of society.
@@Poetic_Justice_YC maybe educate yourself on the law pal. A misdemeanor doesn't exist in NZ law and playing music from your car certainly isn't a crime. a minor wrongdoing if anything the dictionary definition of a misdemeanor
Thanks to the delta lockdown the neighbourhood is nice and quiet lol
Not mine🤣
Lol thats funny and true lol
Not for long 🤣🤣
LOL 9.50 for the Celine Dion connection ! Now it's clear !
BREAKING on the BBC today: Celine Dion is the hottest sound coming from the sirens bolted on cars and keeping residents of Porirua from their beauty rest and tempers are rising!
“Love you dad” 😩
Hope he moves into a nice suburb cause alot of parts of Aus are just the same as NZ
Australia is criminally worse especially Sydney and Melbourne
@@michaelmyers9267 Lets hope he moves to Brisbane best city I reckon there isn't too much trouble up there
@@assault0 Logan isn't even that bad bruh the whole of Brisbane is fine
Fuck off- Onehunga is awesome
Making me homesick watching this.
@Jacob Tara “Homesick” - experiencing a longing for one's home during a period of absence from it.
Yeah maybe in the weekend its fine, But i dont wanna hear venga boys on crappy sirens at 3 in the morning on a wednesday.
thought a pair of 6x9s would be louder, but guessing they would have tried combinations. I know that people in Jamaica would use bike builds with the speakers on shelves that would go on the back.
18:14 , anyone know the song😂
Theyre annoying tbh but i respect the movement keep doing ya thang but please stop the early morning battles 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Joe is an OG in the 312. Iykyk
7.00 that's some gangsta ass caar
chehooo ifo sirens, I’ll never put sirens on my car because it looks bit ratchet and palaku but much love.. 🔊🔥
Bruh why does the siren boys sound like they have there own accent🤣
around here, we speak different, dress different and is different from the rest of NZ
🤣
I grew up in Onehunga 312 represent, but unfortunately, left that neighbourhood such a good area though my childhood living in Onehunga. Definitely heard of Noizy boyz as these boys sometimes play their siren on my street, they didn’t try to annoy people it’s the love sounds and music they had. I know the main Noizy boyz leader None aka gumpy as his parents comes to my church eventually I am related to him. I think they haven’t done any siren battle for awhile.
Shout out to Joe, the best dairy owner in the hood! #IYKYK #WAITANGIROAD
One and only Joe's shop, born and raised In State Ave. Been outter NZ and travelled the world for 19 years now residing in Vietnam , Ho Chi Minh city. But still a Onehunga boy 4life
#IYKYK ! Born and raised on #MtSmartRoad still love Joe’s shop
Waitangi Rd Onehunga Joe shop grew up at the street and the dairy of Joe. He has been working in the dairy for more than 30 years, he has now retired. I think family member, yeah forgot the wife name looks after the dairy. He still owns and live at that house close to his dairy. I was raised in Waitangi street and always coming to Joe dairy. I haven’t been there for ages as I moved from Onehunga.
Alright cyrus from the warriors hahaha😂😂😂
Start blasting classical music
Don't move to Mount druitt cause your just moving to the same enviroment back in nz.
Sirens sounds it’s not big here in Sydney we into lowrider car club’s Impalas Cadillacs Lincoln Continental hitting switches 13” Dayton rims big sound systems in the trunks big money spending, crazy paint jobs but hey if sirens sounds keep the kids off the streets and that’s a good positive vibes
🗣 💯
@@nzfinest177 🤣👌
Whaaat ya low low out in Sydney? I knew Japan does but Australia too? That’s dope boy I’m from Cali that’s norm out here yee yee
@@antonylopez5742 yeah big homie even OG Joe Ray from lowrider garage saying that Australian lowrider culture is getting bigger every year, we have clubs like Majestics USO’s Socios Sickside and more Menulog bought one of our rides for their advertisement 64 Cadillac convertible and they painted it orange, 💯🤙
There are low lows here in nz too
Fucking keep that racket up there and not Wellington
If you don't like it then don't watch it. Don't need people hating on the scene
Ain’t gonna lie.. Sirens sound mud! But in saying that, I support anything good that keeps our young poly boys off the street and fighting one another! Keep it up boys 🙏🏽
Ye 🤣
They sound mud asf on n off with no bass 😂
Is that the only two choices? Playing loud shit, waking everyone up or fighting one another? If so, please knock each other out so the rest of society can avoid being subjected to this nuisance.
@@natelion1022 i would rather hear loud music than get robbed
@@q8pro945 I don't see the connection between those two things. I think that it's a bit depressing that people think these people's lives are so bleak and hopeless. They only have two choices? Playing loud sounds, and if they cannot do this, their only other option is to get violent? Here are some other options: How about completing secondary school and then going on to university? How about working? How about getting a partner and going for a walk in one of the beautiful parks in Auckland? You don't seem to appreciate what Auckland has to offer.
They Tryna bring this too welly nah keep it up Auckland lol ... Fuck that siren shit wack lol
Personally i like siren jams and i might be bias cause im polynesian but i love the songs and my cousin goes to siren battles to watch instead of joining a gang, id rather my relatives go to siren crews than gangs cause being a polynesian in new zealand aint easy, never fucking easy
Man up and stop blaming "being Polynesian" for better
@@eltaierrible3459 im not, its just racism
@@XClACIX stop the "I'm so oppressed" shit..man up stop blaming everyone else
I'm from Aus can someone explain why they stick sirens on that looks wack asf😂 At least throw in some amp and subs. Where the skids at though
Amps and subs is different from the siren scene🤦♂️ yep you’re from aus🤣🤣🤣🤣
your defo from aus . & cs that’s how we vibe , grab a speaker & a bike & us islanders vibe to it .
Thats soo basic tho u def from aus u grub
Don't they have noise violation rules?
Yeap it’s under Resource Management Act 1991 Section 326 from times of 10pm - 7am. But Nz is quite liberal here and narrow if you get what I mean.
Where bouts in Aus he moving too ?
Every time I see or hear one go past I crack up laughing. Sounds so shit. One scene that ain't gonna last
That’s why your here?
😂😂😂
@@azpuk None of us can afford better mate. Mt Wellington where this shit is rampant is a 1.1-1.2M suburb, we can't afford sometimes better than that. So we're stuck having our baby woken in the middle of the night by one of these small dick measuring contestants.

Is this NZ or Compton.
Its Nz the place where your moma use to work yhe streets of Krd
Na bc noneh has to tell me where he got his ring 😭😭😭😭😭
Those people is the reason why I moved away from Onehunga and hopefully out of Auckland eventually.
I grew up in rewa and I noticed around 2015 a lot of fobs went around with ther fob fans with sirens on them. I guess it’s a good substitute for violence. But I don’t get it
ive seen these cars in christchurch

Keeps them outta trouble but 99% of those sirens are stolen 😆
@@aea8753 it's the kids, they even steal sirens off of cars lol
Out of trouble? This is misdemeanour behaviour. Attaching sirens to vehicles is absolutely disgusting. Why would anyone else besides the driver and anyone inside the vehicle need to hear your music?? Have these lovely young lads considered for a sec they are forcing their music onto people who do not wish to hear it?? And do they realise what they’re doing is causing mental health and hearing related issues to functioning members of society?
@@Poetic_Justice_YC so would u rather hear on the news lots of young lads dieing on the street or rather hear music
@@gaftokz7246 how about actually doing something productive to the society, it’s really not that hard, get a minimum paying job and work hard. But saying that I know that’s a lot to ask for some people.
Much respect to the guy moving to aus.
I hear brothers from South Auckland driving down the highway blasting their sirens all the time. Bit annoying when they do it at 2am in the morning, but really they're just having fun lol. Chur
Right, so we're dealing with people who are unintelligent and want everyone to look at them... like children. You're supposed to grow out of that at about 10 years old.
I get it. No one notices you otherwise. Do something worthy of note, then. Simply making more noise is pitiful.
