Bio:

Growing up in the mid 90’s rave scene in Nelson, New Zealand, Juan became hooked on the sounds of Hardcore, and then found his soul in the form of Jungle and D&B. He then amassed a formidable vinyl collection and subsequently DJ’d around NZ in clubs such as Bath St in Dunedin, and the infamous Fu Bar in Auckland.

His subsequent move into production saw several D&B/170bpm tunes released under the ‘Tellez’ moniker, yet it was an experiment into the techno genre around 10 years ago which prompted an entire musical shift into the current 4/4 output of ‘Juan Tellez’. His versatility as a DJ and producer sees him playing and producing across the spectrum of techno (and occasionally minimal/tech), usually leaning towards a darker yet uplifting, atmospheric and grittier sound.

Based in Melbourne since 2013, Juan has found his Australian techno home on the highly regarded Machine label and performed regularly in clubs and festivals around Australia, New Zealand and overseas. Select events include Rainbow Serpent Festival, Dragon Dreaming Festival, Luminate Festival, End of the Line, and Off the Radar, as well as numerous club nights in Melbourne for outfits such as Machine, Bunker, and stranger. Strong support for his techno releases has been seen from the likes of Richie Hawtin, DJ Hell, Thomas Schumacher, Amotik, and many more...
