Crests & TroughsJanuary 22, 2020Events / Live PerformancesExcited to be back in the warehouse alongside some familiar faces and talented artists. I’ll be playing a bit of industrial and EBM flavored techno for this party. Crests & Troughs is a new take on the famed Peaks & Valleys music promotion group, it was created as a seperate outlet for expressing the darker and more obscure shades of electronic music.... Mix uploaded!January 17, 2020MixesI’ve uploaded my opening set for Der Bunker’s first gathering of the new decade.

The DropJanuary 15, 2020Events / Live PerformancesMy long time friend and very talented artistic visionary is launching her very own clothing brand! She’s invited me to curate a night of music for her launch party. Since this is a streetwear brand, Hip Hop and Drum & Bass feel like the perfect fit. I’ve invited Melt head honcho judochOp! to spin some hip hop records, while i’ll be playing a digital drum and bass set. This is a free evening party, and is sure to be loads of fun. RSVP via the website here: https://www.fvrhms.com/... re/search.1January 13, 2020Events / Live PerformancesThe Der Bunker crew is teaming up to launch a residency night at The Lunchbox. This will be a soft launch while we get our footing and nail down a specific night each month, but I’m very excited to play alongside some of my personal favorite (and arguably most talented) local techno DJ/producers. Expect non-conforming, forward thinking, relevant techno and experimental electronic music. Our first party will be on 1/23, come have a drink and indulge in the darker realms of unexplored sonic territory. Facebook event link: https://www.facebook.com/events/195009154972941/... Belief Defect Pre-PartyDecember 15, 2019Events / Live PerformancesWe’ve all been waiting a long time for this announcement, and that day is finally here: Der Bunker has returned. Additionally, I’ve been invited to start the year off alongside Tristan/Iseult and Joe Bear at Der Bunker’s Belief Defect pre-party. If you’ve been around the Phoenix techno scene for more than a few years, then the Bunker crew needs no introduction. If you’re unfamiliar with the name, Der Bunker was one of the first local groups to take techno seriously throughout the past decade. Beyond that, they’ve been doing the damn thing for longer than most of us have even been familiar with the genre. It’s a massive honor to be asked to perform with a group of individuals that I more or less idolize, and I cannot wait to see what the year may have in store. We’ll be doing this party at the Lunchbox in Phoenix – The venue has quite an underground dive bar feel, but with a very impressive and well tuned sound system built by the Der Bunker boss himself. Playing on good sound is a very elusive experience here in the valley, one that I have been chasing since I started taking music seriously. Information for the Pre-Party can be found here: https://www.residentadvisor.net/events/1361444 Since this is a prelude to the big show, it’s only right that I plug that event as well. Bunker is bringing Belief Defect (Drumcell + Luis Flores) out to the desert for their first Arizona performance. The duo is widely regarded as one of the most ground breaking live-techno acts currently performing, and the hype is very well deserved. Needless to say, I’m humbled to prime Phoenix heads for their appearance here in the valley with this pre-party!
