Guest Mixes & Podcasts

Andrew Wowk - Guest Mix on Planet Funk (313.FM Detroit)

This week we welcome Eora local legend - Andrew Wowk. Andrew Wowk is a DJ, producer, radio host, promoter, and writer who has been active in the Eroa (Sydney) electronic music scene for over fifteen years. First introduced to dance music culture through work experience at community radio station Rhythm FM at age 16, Andrew exudes a passion for and knowledge of music that is the result of years of experience.
As a DJ, Andrew has earned a reputation for refined technical skills and eclectic track selection. His tastes run the gamut of techno, house, breakbeat, drum & bass and jungle, electro, and leftfield electronica. But even with such a wide range of music at his disposal, he finds ways to combine these numerous sounds into a cohesive whole. Often focused more on telling a story or creating a particular feeling with his sets, he regularly moves fluidly across stylistic boundaries, preferring to find other similarities between tracks than just their genre. 

Outside of club DJing, Andrew also produces music under the alias End User License Agreement, which has been released on international labels such as Biotech Recordings and Baroque Recordings, and Australian labels such as Extra Spicy, Communication Records, Monarch Recordings, and Late Night Music.

''When I first played at Pax-Romana exactly 3 years ago, I immediately felt a connection with the crew and the crowd. Plus, we share a birthday! I’m very honoured to continue our relationship with Friends of Pax.

This set is representative of what I am playing right now in the clubs: a collection of no-nonsense favourites that have been going down well for me over the past few months''.

We met Amotik when he played the closing at our 1st anniversary. Since that moment, everything felt organic and warm, just like his closing track 'Knights of the Jaguar'. We share a birthday, so our paths will be linked forever, and we're super grateful to have him in the PAX-COLLECTIVE!

PAX-COLLECTIVE: Amotik

This seasonal edition features hard-hitting tracks from Altinbas, DJ Rush, Jarrod Yeates, Loopkillaz, Mathys Lenne, Ø [Phase], Talismann & more.

Straight up techno — old and new school.

Winter 2025

Sink into the memory of Closer's last Masada session on 24th May 2025, when Nastia Reigel immerged the crowd in raw machine funk and relentless 4x4 momentum!

Amidst a landscape defined by constant evolution, Nastia Reigel stands out with unwavering confidence, offering a strong musical foundation and a distinctive artistic vision that sets her apart. Each performance is a masterclass in precision and atmosphere: an enthralling fusion of propulsive rhythms and sharp textures that sweep listeners into her sonic world, leaving no detail untouched.

Commanding energy, refined elegance, and magnetic presence: a force with staying power, filled with high-impact material tailor-made for warehouse-level intensity. These aren't just functional floor tools — they evolve with rich textures and kaleidoscopic layers, pushing past convention.

The 59th episode of Schimmer's podcast series was recorded by Berlin-based DJ and promoter Reka Zalan.

Reka is known for hypnotic depths and percussive drives — always tuned to atmosphere and often drawn to the gloomier sides of Techno. Her sets, whether digital or vinyl, move forward, outward, and inward, balancing tension and flow. Deeply rooted in Berlin’s scene, she’s a local Tresor resident, Hard Wax staffer, part of Coppi collective, and former ://elements co-host. Before immersing herself fully into club life, she worked at the Berlin Music Commission. Driven by curiosity and connection, Reka loves building bridges through sound and shared moments.

This mix was originally recorded for and aired on Nick Spurway's show on Radio Electronica Jena on 02/08/2025. 

Nick very kindly asked me to record a mix for his show and also interviewed me, asking some really interesting questions and in the process made me feel really nostalgic for the tracks in this mix. Part of the interview involved selecting and talking about three tracks. All three of my choices were tracks that were in some way really important in my journey as a DJ. One of them was "Scram" by Plump DJs, which was the first breaks track I ever heard and it kicked off a love for the genre which continues to this day. 

Reminiscing about "Scram" inspired me to record a mix that is a selection of breaks tracks which were important to me as a DJ in one way or another. It's by no means an exhaustive selection, but it definitely covers tracks which opened my eyes to new artists, labels or styles, are connected to memories of great gigs, and which I still play in my sets today.

TRACKLIST
1. Fluke - Absurd (Adam Freeland & ILS Mix)
2. PMT - Gyromancer (False Prophet Mix)
3. Hybrid - Visible Noise
4. Proper Filthy Naughty - Future Burn (Proper Beats Mix)
5. BT - Fibonacci Sequence
6. NuBreed - The Thing
7. Andy Page & Marscruiser Feat. George Clinton - Elementalelectrofunk
8. The Crystal Method - Name Of The Game (Hybrid's Blackout In LA Mix)
9. Plump DJs - Scram
10. The Operators - Furball

Rhythms Nights feat. Andrew Wowk

Andrew Wowk is a DJ, producer, radio host, promoter, and writer who has been active in the Eora (Sydney) electronic music scene for over 20 years. First introduced to dance music culture through work experience at community radio station Rhythm FM at age 16, Andrew exudes a passion for and knowledge of music that is the result of years of experience.

As a DJ, Andrew has earned a reputation for refined technical skills and eclectic track selection. His tastes run the gamut of techno, house, breakbeat, drum & bass and jungle, electro, and leftfield electronica, demonstrating a deep respect for the history of dance music, a love for its present, and excitement about its future. But even with such a wide range of music at his disposal, he finds ways to combine these numerous sounds into a cohesive whole. Often focused more on telling a story or creating a particular feeling with his sets, he regularly moves fluidly across stylistic boundaries, preferring to find other similarities between tracks than just their genre.

His intelligent approach to DJing has led to him playing at some of Sydney and Australia's most well-respected clubs/events, both as a headliner and as a support act for international artists. He has also received international recognition, being invited to play guest sets at Circus Osaka in Japan, DEPTH and Train Car House Party in Seattle, as well as perform on 313.FM in Detroit, WNYU in New York, and provide mixes for Animal Instinct in Berlin, Fnoob Radio, and Error Sessions in the UK.

Outside of club DJing, Andrew also produces music under the alias End User License Agreement, which has been released on labels such as Biotech Recordings, Baroque Recordings, Extra Spicy, Communication Records, Monarch Recordings, and Late Night Music. His remix of Floor Twenty’s “Say My Name” and his original track “Chonk” were both featured in Beatport’s and Juno's best bass music releases from 2021. He also hosts a weekly radio show "Time To Track" on 2SER, regularly writes for both print and online media, and runs events covering the spectrum of underground dance music, featuring previous headliners such as Dave Clarke, Ben Sims, Marcus Intalex, Regis, Hodge, Adriana Lopez, Djinn, SNTS, and Nastia Reigel. 

Andrew is passionate about social and political issues and strongly believes in using music as a medium for addressing these issues. Much of the music he loves was originally created in tandem with social, cultural, and political movements, and he believes that contemporary music should also carry a message. To put this into practice, he launched Music For Change, a label which donates 100% of profits from all releases to various charities, alongside Jessica Tassone in 2021. Releases on the label have been supported by international artists such as Dave Clarke, Ani Klang, and Alchemist/Amy Kisnorbo, played on BBC Radio 1, and added to the rotation on local radio stations FBI Radio and 2SER.
